I like how he used the words 'allegedly' twice in this report ...

''I still can't believe that anyone would be able to say that the training session you just saw was affected by some investigation into something which allegedly happened four years ago.''

Probe not on our radar, Neeld says

    ''I've got more information out of reading the back page of The Age than what I have talking to anyone here,'' he said.

    Nice quote, just needed the word unsubstantiated before information or substituted for "crap" !

    Note the difference in how The Age "quotes" Neeld (above) and the AFL does below- it changes the meaning altogether:

    "I'm no more informed than someone who buys The Age or the Herald Sun. That's where I get my information from," Neeld said.

    "I have learned more from reading the back page of the newspapers than anyone here.

    "I'm sure that information is spot on," he said with a smirk.

    Haha classic, Age you dodgy bastards!

    Stupid me thinking a quote in the Age was accurate!?

    'Selective' is a better description. They pick what they want to suit their story..... they do it with photos as well. 'Neeld is worried about tanking' and you can be sure there is an accompanying picture of a worried looking Neeld in deep discussion with CS..

    But he just turns a blind eye to the photo shown on another thread where Viney and Brown are obviously embroiled in the deep inner conflicts within the divided club without any shadow of doubt the result of years and years of tanking.

    "This is the most obvious and undeniable piece of hard evidence that tanking has occurred and the AFL must act immediately", Wilson wrote.

      Melbourne returned to its city citadel, IKON Park, boasting a 10–2 home record and celebrating its 100th AFLW matchwith 3,711 fans creating a finals atmosphere. But in a repeat of Round 11, Brisbane proved too strong, too fit, and too relentless.  They brought their kicking boots: 9 goals, 2 points.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
