Furious Eddie calls for investigation !!

Adelaides Phil Davis is off to GWS. Hes come out and told us all. He says he's signed. But the wiley Sheedy and dastardly powers that be at GWS deny anything "offical" for you see there can be nothign 'official" as they cant "officially' sign anyone currently . Dems da rools !! So sayeth the AFL and they are never deceitful, the AFL, always on teh up and up !! definitely, without doubt

Persoannly I think its hilarious that Eddie's got his kniockers in a knot about this. Does this mean Eddie there are shiftier people than your good self ??

Its always been suspected that in order for teh GWS to conduct its game of intrigue and gueriilla warfare that it almost must by circumstance either operate outside of the jurisdiction of teh AFL or indeed with its bleessings. ...or BOTH !! Im not an overly betting man but Im going with C) Lock it in Eddie..C for BOTH !!

What does this mean to clubs other than Adelaide ? WHo else is out there packing bags and sifting through Tourist guides to Scenic Western Sydney ?

We all have our suspicions. Indeed our own beloved club is not immune to the scaremongering of impending departures, if indeed its only rumour and not a signed sealed deed already.. But then it coulndt be as nothing can be signed, not this year, not yet. But we can see plainly before us that theres a lot of rules being broken and I wil lcede that Macguire, indeed, any clubs officilas and supporters ought to be fuming at such underhandedness. But to be surprised ? No. Im not.

Davis is but the first to put his hand up. Brave lad. I'l ltake my hat off to him though theres a sort of twisated decency in his honesty ( now ) . Adelaide know their fate and can plan accordingly. Other await their fate.

But back to the opening tenet. GWS are cheating. Why does this surprise anyone.

It does beg the question of what some clubs already know but arent game to announce just yet. Just how much is the AFL prepared to go unbridled ?

Get used to it Eddie.... seems you dont run the game after all !

It all reminds me of that scene in Good Morning Vietnam where Robin Williams tries to report censored wartime events by saying "unofficially" before every sentence.

"One thing that didn't officially happen today is a bomb didn't officially explode at 13:00 hours and 23 people weren't offically killed".

It's become like that in the world of football at the moment and it's gotten ludicrous.

Why does this happen? Because the powers that be want to treat us all like children who, to use another movie line, can't handle the truth.

I also tip my hat to Phil Davis for manning up and coming clean. Shows a lot of character that. Unlike some others.

I'm 100% with Eddie. GWS are cheating. They've got massive concessions to pillage existing club lists under the rules. They need to follow the AFL rules.

I don't think he is so brave. He is injured and out for the rest of the season anyway.

Of course theyre cheating. Hardly news. . But how incredulous of the masses to suppose they couldnt have been. Whats more you watch the AFL duck and weave. They are complicit by direction in all of this. They created the occasion, the setting and the motives to do so. And whats worse in in their ( Vlads) interest they do so as to seure the names on which Vlad hangs his hat of success for GWS on. All terrribly incestuous and worthy of a Caligulan orgy.

Still...he could hve stayed hidden amongst the background. He didnt, kudos at least for that. Adelaide now know where they stand.. Other clubs dont.

Agree and very interested in the Caligulan Orgy.

Seriously, there is no such thing as "cheating" or "breaking the rules" when the AFL is seeking a particular outcome or result.

If this link is correct and everyone in here think Scully has a change in heart after agreeing with GWS last year specially ranger rover and that made him have a press conference i think the chances of tom scully staying get a massive boost

From the link provided:

..." we haven't got the final details in terms of the specifics of the contract."

.."We've been going through a discussion with Phil's manager and we presented an in-principle guide to what we're prepared to offer, effectively."

Geez, 'in-principle guide offer' and 'specifics of contract' in most languages mean the same thing.
