Are AFL Players taking the Piss out of us, or just in pissing in Public!

There are many people that love to have a go at AFL Players and what they  in public. Drunkenness, violence against women, speeding and drink driving!  I for one have argued that these are young guys and that they will get into trouble like the rest of society and especially like males around there same age. This however has been a bad couple of weeks for AFL players. Last week, in the lead up to round one, serial idiot drunk Brendan Fevola was caught at 4am Urinating on the front window of a night club. Fev has a terrible record and his club decided that fining him over suspension but throwing out that this will be his last drinking related incident that would be dealt with as part of the Carlton Football Club. There CEO, Greg Swan, announced in a Press Conference announced that if Fev got caught in another Alcohol related issue, he would be sacked!

So after that you would think the last thing that any AFL players would got caught doing is pissing in public, right? Then along comes the Tigers and of all people, their Captain Kane Johnson!

RICHMOND captain Kane Johnson was arrested and locked up after being caught urinating on the wall of the St Kilda Rd police complex. Johnson, who was caught in the act by a policewoman and her colleague, was later bailed by police on a charge of being drunk in a public place.

There is no excuse for this! There is especially no excuse for this this week! There is especially no excuse for this from your captain! And it is definitely no excuse that the place you piss on is right next to your home. In fact, to me this is a huge negative that you were either too drunk or too stupid to walk up stairs to your place and piss in your own toilet! Now the kicker is, if your going to piss in public (as many of us have when we can’t find a toilet after a huge night out) why would you do it on the head quarters of the police?

Now Johnson does have a clean record but I am not buying that he has offered to stand out for one match. In my opinion the Tigers have to go further then fine him $5,000! They have to announce what suspensions they would give him and I also think that they have to remove him from the leadership group which means removing him as Captain. This story broke today, Easter Sunday, so lets give the Tigers a day or two to get their shit together (or should that be there piss)!
