Obviously an oversight, no need for hysterics.

It's an outrage we should all write in and complain.
Pants will never be forgotten by the AFL community. A legend of Collingwood! RIP

agree, no need to be hysterical ...it is an article who cares.
Side note...i never realised how drunk Millane was at the time of his death (six and a half times over the limit) .... if we ever wanted to re-enforced the anti drunk drive message....i think he is a good lesson to us all.
I think also it is a mark of how the AFL has grown up since the 90's....if a player got behind the wheel that drunk now,....he would probably and rightly be shown the door. |

However, it was the management at the nightclub who put him in the car in a comatose state, with the keys in the ignition.
He woke up and drove away. |

so no personal responsibility needed? that's why people die on the roads from drunk drivers.sure they did the wrong thing, but he did much worse. the good thing is he only killed himself. but I bet that truck driver never forgets it

Yep and that's fair
