MCC to investigate ousting Walker brothers after shocking assault

In the hours preceding a savage assault brothers Sam and Dominic Walker committed in Richmond, the pair watched the footy final in the MCC. Now the esteemed club is taking action.

The MCC is set to investigate whether to expel silver tailed thugs Sam and Dominic Walker.

And the MCC’s chief Stuart Fox is himself likely to handle the investigation.

Sam Walker, 26, and his brother Dominic, 28, were convicted with friend Benjamin Fitt over a violent bashing near the MCG in September 2018.

The review of their membership of the MCC follows the County Court hearing appeals against their prison sentences last week.

MCC rules say any allegation that a member has “been convicted of an indictable offence” must “be investigated by the CEO or CEO’s delegate”.

The brothers are MCC members and the sons of prominent lawyer Tim Walker, QC.

It takes decades on the waiting list to get MCC membership and the 103,000 members hate to give it up.

After the CEO investigation the matter is then referred to the Discipline Sub-Committee unless it is determined the allegation is vexatious or frivolous.

After this the discipline sub committee can expel, suspend or impose restrictions on the members. It can also “reprimand” them or “take no action”.

Members “against whom an allegation has been made” are allowed to appear before the discipline subcommittee.

Shocking footage captured the moment the Walker brothers and their friend Benjamin Fitt mobbed David Raeside, 61, and Len Tricarico, 45, near the Pullman Hotel on Wellington Parade just after midnight on September 7, following the Richmond-Hawthorn qualifying final.

The brothers and their friend had been in the MCC members area during the game.

Last week Sam Walker had two months knocked off his six-month jail term.

Dominic Walker, the key aggressor, last week abandoned his appeal against his 12-month jail term.

Judge Michael Tinney said the outcome could have been much worse.

“These events could have so easily ended in the death of a man,” the judge said.
