Revealed: Why two footy stars have 'SECRETLY been banned' by league chiefs as shock 'hot mic' remarks emerge
An Adelaide Crows footballer has reportedly been caught in a shocking 'hot mic' moment following a recent promotional shoot. According to Channel 7, Blake Drury, a SANFL-listed player, was caught making a sexually inappropriate comment about a female staff member while she was in the room. He and a second player are, per The Advisor, said to have served 'secret bans'. The 31-year-old footballer had been recording for a shoot to promote a recent clash between SANFL and WAFL sides. The female staff member is understood to have been employed by the SANFL side. Drury, a former North Melbourne forward, was allegedly conversing with Aiden Grace. Grace, 27, is the vice-captain of the Central District football club. The outlet writes that the victim later found out about the comments which Channel 7 states were 'too vulgar to report'. Both Drury and Grace were then withdrawn from playing in the clash against Western Australia, which will take place later in May at The Adelaide Oval. They were handed a one-match ban from the league. SANFL told Channel 7 that the players were both sanctioned and described their conduct as 'unacceptable'. A league spokesperson said: '[The league] immediately investigated and addressed the matter, with both players sanctioned.' The outlet adds that the pair have sent written apologies to the woman involved. SANFL said in a statement: 'We were extremely disappointed by the inappropriate comments made by the players and continue to provide support to our staff member impacted.' The Crows added they were 'extremely disappointed and angered.' The footy club added that it 'endorsed the SANFL's sanction.' Drury, who has made 10 AFL appearances for North Melbourne before leaving the club in 2024 after being drafted as a No 1 pick in the 2023 rookie draft. He'd go on to make 6 AFL appearances for Adelaide's reserves and had been hopeful of landing himself a spot in the club's senior side during Wednesday's mid-season draft. The players are now also set to undertake counselling and education programmes.

Nutrition meets wellness at Gróa in Hong Kong, ‘more than just a restaurant,' owner says
It is my third time interviewing Cheman Cheung in the past four years and each time, the entrepreneur has something new going on. Advertisement Cheung founded the wellness brand Nüte in 2021, selling smoothie bars online. He has since added two sister brands under Nüte: Benko, a Japanese-inspired bento (boxed meal) shop at Basehall, the upscale food court in Hong Kong's Central district; and more recently, Gróa, a casual seaside restaurant that opened in April in the south of Hong Kong Island. Gróa in Repulse Bay serves plates inspired by Mediterranean and Japanese cuisine. The name, which means 'to grow' in Old Norse, sums up the restaurant's ethos. 'We want people's well-being to grow here,' Cheung says. 'It's much more than just a restaurant for us. We want people to come in and leave with a lovely memory, feeling recharged, rejuvenated and [with] a sense of growth from the conversations, food, service and environment.' On the way to Gróa in Repulse Bay Arcade, visitors pass under several Chinese moon gates along a quiet walkway. Photo: Gróa Tucked away on the top floor of Repulse Bay Arcade, the restaurant is not easy to find. Once you arrive, however, it feels as though you found a secret corner of Hong Kong's Southern district. Advertisement Chinese garden archways straddle the path leading to the restaurant, and traditional Chinese windows and bamboo stalks frame a picturesque sea view. Inside, the restaurant is a mix of natural wood and green tones. Gróa feels like the physical manifestation of Cheung's values and Nüte's North Star.
