Wayne Carey gave a speaking engagement at a Melbourne function that was canceled at the last minute as members of the public expressed concerns about the AFL being great for the organisers.
It is the final blow to the footy legend after he lost his job at Triple M radio earlier this week after being banned from Perth’s Crown Casino when a bag of white powder fell from his pocket while he was gambling.
Carey was due to speak at the grand final luncheon for St Kevin’s Old Boys Football Club at the Glenferrie Hotel on Friday, but found out shortly after arriving that he was unwanted.
Carey (pictured en route to speak at a separate function at Wagga Wagga on Sept. 8) was told he was not wanted shortly after arriving at the grand finale lunch
The lunchtime promotional material did not promote Carey by name and his presence was not widely known to the 200 or so guests, according to the Herald Sun.
It is believed that his performance at the position was booked before he was evicted from the casino.
St Kevin’s took the step when audience members told organizers they were having trouble with Carey giving a speech, according to club president Patrick Mount.
Carey lost his job at Triple M radio and was withdrawn from comment by Channel Seven when the white powder scandal broke out
“There was concern in the room about Wayne’s presence, which we listened to, and it was decided to fire him during the event,” Mount said.
“Wayne then left. He has acted extremely professionally and courteously the entire time.’
The two-time premiership winner with North Melbourne was evicted from Perth’s Crown Casino and given a two-year ban on all Crown buildings when a bag of white powder fell from his pocket while he was gambling on September 1.
Carey stepped down from Channel Seven’s commentary after the scandal broke and Triple M chose not to renew his contract on September 14.
He is adamant that the substance in the bag was not illegal and has hired lawyers to investigate a potential disability discrimination claim against the gambling giant for evicting and blocking him.
“It wasn’t an illegal substance, it was offered to security. Security didn’t take it,’ said Carey.
“They just said it didn’t look pretty, I understood that, and we left without incident.”
Carey’s attorney Josh Bornstein said his client was wrongly ejected “believed the bag contained an illegal drug” and explained that the large kangaroo was carrying “anti-inflammatories and pain-relieving drugs” that he uses to treat injuries from football. to treat.
