Adrian Anderson Quits

Featured Replies

Even in this announcement she takes time to have another crack at the MFC???? Being investigated for forfeiting games? She is sailing pretty close to the wind here and will pay a decent price if/when we are found to have no case to answer.

Like a dog with a bone.

Forfeiting means to surrender.

In which game is she alleging that we did that?

Sydney Swans @ Manuka where we have never beaten them and came closer to beating them than in the previous two matches and only poor kicking for goal lost it for us?

Richmond where it took a goal after the siren from 50 metres to beat us?

St. Kilda (19-2) v us (4-17) with them paying $1.02 the win in a game we lost by 47 points?

If these were forfeits in her mind then she really has forfeited her sanity.

One look at her and one can see that she is just a bitter, miserable person with a huge chip on her shoulder who likes to stir up trouble just for the sake of it.

Pity it wasn't she who resigned.

She's determined to sustain her view that we "pathetic and disgusting". The word "tanking" has become a joke - so she's trying to coin

a phrase that sounds "incriminating" - hence the term "deliberately forfeit" As you point out, that insinuation flies in the face of the facts ......... and highlights just how absurd the whole thing is!!

Anderson called for this ridiculous investigation while Demetriou was away. Perhaps this demonstrated to "the powers that be " that Anderson hasn't got the judgment necessary to climb further up the AFL management ladder. Wishful thinking perhaps - but the timing is interesting. Let's face it, he's just dug the AFL into one heck of a hole

Surely her use of the term "deliberately forfeiting" is slanderous. It's far more pointed than 'tanking'.

Any legal types in the house who might comment on this?

 

What the hell is garry lyon doing, why has he not pulled caro up if i was him i would, am sure he has more power at 9 then caro, if he loves the club, who made him

Vincehotboy look at the later part of the 2009 season objectively, we went out of our way not to win.

Leave your MFC blindness aside.

Others did it during that period and it could be said that the league rules encourage it.

However 90% of the Football community ( including me ) believes we tanked.

Don't be blinded by your passion for the Dees.

Perhaps Gary believes it too!

I don't have much time for Anderson, but to him it probably looked like he was being sent a message: "you're not allowed to make decisions on your own, sonny".

He would have felt undermined from above.

Goodbye Adrian. May your successor not make it up as he goes along.

Not a legal type, but I am confident the club will have filed that one away in the memory bank. It's a big statement.

It could come back to bite her big time.

Yes Vincehotboy - except for the fact that Carlton didn't set up a President (Obama?) - I agree with you .................... but that doesn't make Old Dee a fool!!

Ha Ha Biffen

But thanks for the support

yes u old geeza but i did not start with the gay porn sledge, so i am charming, but he is not. Its not me.

Two wrongs don't make a right

A little advise from an old geeza

You wiil never win a discussion by calling names.

Put up an arguement with substance to support it.

That way people will take you seriously.

Even if they don't agree


Why would she use the term Forfeiting.

While one posters says i "means to surrender."

In my footy world when you forfeit, it means you couldn't get a team together and the other side wins by default.

In WA amateurs, you get a 100pt and the forfeiting team gets 1 for percentage purposes.

We never forfeited as we fielded teams in all those games.

i will defend my club against anyone who rubbish my club, a true supporter would never rubbish l their club. Its us against them , if u think that we tanked then u should stop supporting the dees, how can u attack the dees, if agree with caro, she never says a bad word against richmond no matter what the facts are. Thats a true supporter.

I think we tanked- should I stop supporting my dees too Vincey?

I think so yes SMF

You are now branded as not a "true supporter"

Welcome to the club.

Perhaps we could start a splinter group called "The Not so True Dees"

We could negotiate a reduced membership fee, say only pay 90% of normal.

The main requirement would be to have a sense of humour!

The Not so True Dees. Has a ring to it. At last, a place where us dee fans can go to openly revel in our disgusting onfield performances and worship our bronzed statue of Jordan McMahon.


I think we tanked- should I stop supporting my dees too Vincey?

I think we border-line tanked so I gotta leave games at half-time.

Tis the season to be jolly tralla lalla la la la la la

Now only Vlad & Caro to go !

We didn't tank. Repeat 10 times please.

Tanking is throwing games. We didn't do that and no one can prove it.

We will give you an apprenticeship nutbean

If you promise to not mention Caro once in the next month we will give you full membership.

Becoming a "Not so True Dee" is not something that is handed out on a whim

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
