Teammates that didn't like each other

To save you going through 69 pages of this thread, here’s the long and the short of it..
West = Carey
Cox = Stevens
Yes he was. I was just reading some threads on it from 2001 when the story first started doing the rounds on bigfooty, and some respected users who are still active on bigfooty 16 years later are adamant it’s not entirely true.. so who knows really
For what it's worth, Cornes said the other day on 3aw that the relationship between him and Primus "is still very frosty. We say hello, but that's pretty much it"
No doubt this is common knowledge, but he reckons he would've most likely been traded from Port, but then Primus got the arse, so things obviously changed.
I have no answer, but Wallace said recently on SEN that he and Jeans had a big falling out, so he had to leave, because he might not have got a game any longer at Hawthorn
Yea after reading his book I’m not surprised, basically half it was slagging off ‘Matty’
With respect to the West and Cox story "not getting out", I'm sure I remember the Bulldogs calling a press conference about it. Terry Wallace just made vague references to "some nasty rumours going around which aren't true", and then the two of them posed awkwardly for a photograph shaking hands and putting on a Gee Aren't We Great Mates vibe.

I believe it was true. Caro did a story on it at the time. I recall it had a photo of Scott West at the Shrine of Remembrance on St Kilda Road.
Didn't Jeans play him on a half back flank rather than centre in the '86 grannie and Wallet cracked the shits.

Take it to the bay you weapon.
76 hey? Do if you were born then you must've jumped on that Carlton bandwagon expecting years of unbridled success well past 1995.
Take your own advice.
Can't believe even mods get involved in tit for tats. So whose wang is larger?

Okay I'm supposed to let some keyboard masher call one of our former players a murderer. Great logic.

Nup it was similar at Hawthorn. Have heard this from several AFL players.
Absolute campaigner they said, but it obviously worked out fine from a football point of view so good on him. Hodgey is the professional bloke every AFL player talks about highly.
Not murder, but his actions led to someone being killed.

You're not somehow confusing Milburn with Ablett Snr are you?

Yeah I know what/who you're referring to, and if I'm choosing to play here at the end of a boring shift that's my business.Yeah nevermind, read back further after posting.

If he's so hated why was Mitchell the guy who took control before extra time against Port, and brought your team together, instead of the guy who's been captain for years?
I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw that. Stunning inditement of Hurns captaincy.
Never knew Milburn killed someone. I'm hardly surprised that he wasn't charged. Boys will be boys after all. In America he would've got 10 years.

I'm not a respected poster but was around then.
It was a bizarre thing to see. West didn't just start on the bench - he never went on the ground. Club said migraine but rumours started swirling that Cox knocked his lights out before the game.
As I recall, Cox did an interview (I think after he left) saying it was all BS and I've always suspected it was something that started at a pub and took on a life of its own.

And I'm hardly surprised that people profess to be experts on the incident, based on a vague reference in a 15 year old article.
