Personally I find all this dropping in and out of teams, regardless of gender, a bit pathetic.

All of us work jobs here and I'm sure we don't get to just fudge off because we don't like it. I don't know, maybe some of you guys can but I can't. Maybe I'm just too much of a tradie to have sympathy for this shark. You're getting paid to do a job, fudgeing show up.

If they were working a job anywhere else they wouldn't get to just fudge off for a couple of months, they'd be sacked.
Of course you can, you have sick leave, bereavement leave, maternity and paternity leave, and holiday leave. The difference is because you work year round there isn't the same level of impact as someone who has a compacted work schedule of a few months.

Must be nice working a job where you get that. Most of the people in my industry don't have that luxury.

luxury?? it's a legal entitlement. Your employed legally has to provide these things! If you're not getting this you either need to find a better job or raise it as an issue.
"personal reasons" is code for mental illness of some desciption. And if you personally have struggled with such things then you should be well aware of the damage done if you can't deal with it in a safe environment.

Mate you're clearly out of touch with how most people that aren't in the upper middle to upper class have to operate. Its not so pretty.

It's nice, fantastic even, if people can have time off for their mental health, I wish every industry allowed it, but for most of us we have to nut up and take it. So asking everone to care about the mental health if athletes when for most of us football is simply escapism from our own real issues is a bit tone deaf in my opinion.

But hey, that's just my opinion. I'm clearly coming at it from a very different background to most of you.

as mentioned above it's not us that need to change, it's whatever industry you're in that is clearly mistreating it's workers. Right now when every industry is desparate for workers you are in the power position, leave! find a place that values you and your skills. If that's not an option then get the union involved, if you are bluie collar as you say then I'm certain your kindustry is well unionised and can fight for your rights. gone are the days when the mplyer can willfully ignore their workers mental health and basic leave entitlements. nothing I'm saying has anythign to do with being from any class or in a white collar job. It's your basic legal rights in this country.
