As if the player and his wife didn't know the GPs were taking the kids to Dreamworld. Guarantee it was discussed and agreed beforehand
More than likely - yep.
Pretty positive Cotchin's wife didnt leave the kids to fend for themselves while she was at the Spa. Trent knew what she was up to, he had to have had - as he would have been with the kids. Situations the same, but for some reason - only she is copping it.
As supporters, we still have a long way to go.
When Rance retired, many on this and other forums were pretty quick to blame her for HIS decision. She copped a lot. All unfairly IMO
Then, the supporters somehow got Higgo & his misses involved & it was all of a sudden 'her fault' - until she put us in our place.
The Cotchin situation screams of a similar thing. Trent knew where she was - who else was looking after their 3 kids?. People need to accept that this has been a really shitty year for a lot of people & we are all at a breaking point. We all need some TLC. Trent probably chose to be a "good husband" for once over being a "good captain" and told her - babe, just go & treat yourself. It backfired. la de da, life goes on. We dont all need an apology and nor should we care who pays the fine, as long as its not us. She broke no QLD law, all she did was break some corporate enforced law that was scrappily put together to try and make some buckazoids
The club is reaping massive profits over the success the players have created, for once money is not a big problem at Tigerland. The best thing we all could do for the club is not say boo about wanting "this or that" from the Cotchins. They would rather pay the fine and move on ASAP. Last thing Dimma wants is his captain and his wife pissed off at the club, the supporters or the AFL.
