When does does allegedly become fact?

In all the media hype and the barrage of this 'allegedly' happened!, one 'version was and another 'version' was etc tetc

I have not read or know of a single FACT that has come to light to prove anything.

A witch hunt through the media must also have its consequences. Unless there is a proven case of 'anything', people like Caroline Wilson must be prepared to resign her position should she not be vindicated. It is her right to report news, not make it up on the run or offer interpretation to suit her story.

We are talking of something that supposedly happened 4 years ago. To be truly open we would need to investigate much further back and to widen the inuendo to even that idiot, Kennett's team.

The AFL know that any negative outcome towards Melbourne will bring fierce resistance from the Club , injunctions and a demand for deeper investigations.

The AFL should simply admit that they supported a flawed system , a number of clubs may have used the system with interpretation and they are now changing the system so this will never occurr again.

Making 1 team or individuals scapegoats for using an existing system will not advance the game. There are many players in this scenario and many possible outcomes.

In recent times a lot of Australians have been 'tried' in the media, only to find the actual facts do not support the theories generated out of 'Headline seeking' poor journalism

I for 1 will be watching to see whether or not the AFL support the Media circus being played out, whether they are agreeing with the media clowns or they are actually gathering the facts and will make a fair and provide game supportive outcomes.

 

Wilson is getting drip-fed information here and there and referring to "sources" as she always does. The Connolly article on the AFL website is referring to The Age news as its source lol. There are a lot of wheels in motion here, they're all referring to each other, it's a circle-jerk.

This is not to say some proven solid revelations will not come out of all of this in due course but there is no integrity in the way the AFL is going about this.

Perhaps we need to get a Dees supporter appointed as Chairman of the AFL commission, it seems to have worked for another club.

 

It's all still just idle speculation until there is hard evidence,of which I doubt they will find,as its all hearsay from disgruntled employees.

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    Melbourne’s early surge of optimism came crashing back to reality in its clash with Fremantle at Optus Stadium on Saturday night. Just six days after unveiling its fun-filled, attack-minded style against the Saints, the Demons were met by a Dockers outfit determined to shut it down with a blend of speed, pressure, and physicality.
