Was the word "alcohol" mentioned in the facts report?

I initially disbelieved the reason but the explanation seems fairly plausible.

Then again, my instinct tells me that you're not getting the full picture when people try and over-explain things. Randy Andy comes to mind...but it was good to see that prick hang himself.

We should have recruited his sister. She seems less injury prone.

Watch the video. Sounds plausible to me too.

Unless there is evidence to the contrary, I;m going to believe Hanners.

What an elaborate and detailed story that no one was asking for.

Definitely 100% legit 👍 :D

One of the press asked Dan, in front of all the press, to "take us through exactly how you did it".

Maybe you should have watched the video.

That's not Hannebury.

It's Dave McNamara fetching Firey another drink from the bar at Junction Oval! :D

That ‘journo’ was clearly a plant. On further inspection he appears to be Hanner’s sister’s finance’s mate’s cousin!

Some people are so easily fooled 😉

It’s entirely plausible that it actually happened the way he said.
If for example, it was Geary that this happened to you’d take it at face value. The reality is Hannebery has a reputation and that’s what’s lead to the doubt/suspicion.

For anyone that’s really on the give him the benefit of the doubt bandwagon, I have one question.

If it came out tomorrow that he was drunk... would you really be shocked or surprised?
Hard pressed to find any objective person saying yes.

All of that being said... it’s really not that big a deal and this thread has become overblown. I suspect he was drunk but as long as he hits the season running am not terribly bothered.

As said above... just don’t want to hear about Hannebery again until the season starts

Well said, Skeptic.

Another thing to add is that obviously I hope I'm totally wrong in my suspicion and that it was just a freak accident and he'll have a stellar season. I obviously WANT the guy to succeed.

Go Saints!

sheez talk about running someones character into the ground, AFL players don't get paid enough, imagine having to live a life under suspicion all the time and always being guilty and never presumed innocent. Do any of these beliefs around Hannebery's character have any basis in fact or is it just the unsubstantiated internet rumours that did the rounds a few years ago?

oh ok I see what you are doing the ole Sargent Schultz routine
Considering you are all over everything stkilda I would have thought you are very well aware of his off field performance
hint google Dan Hannebery beer and then sit back for a good read

oh and some players get paid too much for pretty well nothing

First time I am fully in agreement with your post. All this bulls*** about Hanners drinking or on drugs, Is just that. Unsubstantiated bulls***.

And I would have thought , in clear breach of forum rules.

your gagging of such may be in breach.

What rules does it violate to speculate about this issue?

oh please, Bigfooty, really. Look for the record I couldn't give a stuff if he loves a beer or 10 and some chemical or herbal enhancement, there aren't too many clubs around Australia, (at all levels), where the boys are carving it up on the weekends and holidays. These are good ole Australian lads, decent lads, going about their lives, why the need to demonise them and treat them like they are some low life's.
