Rats In The Ranks ... On The Couch attack was 'staged'

Featured Replies

First OTC on monday with Brock, then Insider on tuesday looking at our 09 game against the Tigers, then the former President bags the club on wednesday and today the back page of the little paper goes into detail about a function we are having to raise money for a war chest to chase players.

Now I was invited to that function and my invitation arrived two weeks ago. Who leaked that invitation to the press and why have they sat on the story for two weeks? Obviously timing is why they sat on it. Now we are being hammered, is the perfect time.

It is becoming clearer that there are people within our club who want to see the club harmed. They obviously have links with the press. Maybe they just want the current administration turfed and will do anything to see that happen. If this is true, then it is very sad. Jimmy as one of his main goals wanted to bring all supporters together. Looks like that is a dream.

It was this time last year CS was given a twelve month extension.

From memory his contract runs till the end of October

That being the case it is an amazing coincidence that at a similar time to last year's sacking, 186 and reinstating this all rears its head.

Is he getting a new contract or what?

I am not surprised that conspirators are afoot at the MFC

We have spent 5 years effectively producing nothing on the field.

Now whether they are right or not It is clear to me that for whatever reason a large number of the media have someone high up in the MFC in the Gun and will not give up until that person leaves the MFC.

Throw in a few members who agree and we have our current position.

Sad but not unexpected from were I sit.

 

Today's topic of a war chest I'd imagine came from the club itself.

Deflection away from tanking, as it's an unrelated issue.

I don't see how it's a negative issue.

Have you checked the website today.

A rash of good news stories.

It wasn't Cameron Schwab I saw out there on the field down at Geelong last year.

I have missed the connection RR between the highlighted sentence and your comment.

I will guess are you suggesting that I am saying CS is to blame?

Was not my intention as I have no idea what was behind that whole saga.

I think it is interesting that all this comes up almost 12 months to the week CS was given a twelve month extension.

It is time to renew his contract or not true?


So sick of pretend CEO's and pretend board members spouting on here

For the first time in 30 years has this club been in this position (financial) (FD up to speed)

and people want to pull down all the hard work and get a new CEO and board......so they can spout their own importance.......

Give the club a chance to consolidate....Mistakes have probably been made and will probably will again but for goodness sake give them a go....

    Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

    It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

  • NON-MFC: Round 09

    Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
