AFL investigation

Good get. From memory Schwabbie was held kickless that day Geelong beat us by 186 points.

Ask Brad Green what he thinks of him, his reply will be no comment.

Does anybody else think the AFL is letting the media know everything that's going on with this tanking issue just to keep footy talk in the paper during the off-season?

Unfortunately they have evidence.

Of course, there is an international Tennis Tournament on as we speak,

Can't have the Tennis taking up all the pages can we. There are over 100 AFL Journalists on the books...Gotta kee 'em busy with something.;

Like a dog with a bone.... The post was speculating if the AFL's is leaking to the media just to keep in the news. Wasn't asking 'did we tank'.

What also must be remembered is that we are a shareholder in the AFL not some sort of paid employee and as such we are entitled to be treated no better or worse than the other shareholders, if there are rules then they must be equally applied.

And so say all of us.

he can have schwabs 80k desk....

It depends who is doing the leaking. But I am hopeful you're right, that there is nothing concrete in the report that hasn't been revealed. If there isn't IMO we're home free, if there is neither the AFL or MFC would leak it.

Nevertheless the club brought scrutiny on itself by telling too many people the plan.

Where the hell are you getting this part from?

Purely imagined on your behalf.

You wouldn't happen to be thaipantsman would you?

I vaguely recall him taking great offence at the time...

That's not TPM.

Unfortunately they have evidence.

When we go to the Supreme court they can tell the Judge "my dog ate it ".

He said/ she said is known as hearsay.

And they haven't actually got a real charge to bring.

Dont panic - you'll get more chances to rubbish the admin later.

so thats what all this past few pages of supporter against supporter was about.

To try to give up one of ours as the AFL have evidence, & you think they will charge one of our boys?

So some want us to give him up without a fight? And without a cost?

.... No Thanks...

is it true the fink is a blue supporter?

If so, how did we know the information?

& did some of our supporters here know what the 800 page AFL document contained? & if so, from which source?

This thread has degenerated to the point where it no longer serves any purpose.

It's closed.

That is not to say that threads regarding the tanking issue are now banned; to the contrary, we will continue to encourage discussion and a wide range of views. However, in future we will endeavour to moderation political and other sensitive threads more strictly to prevent abuse, bullying, flaming and excessive and unreasonable posting.

Thanks to deegirl for raising the issue in the opening post. It made for some interesting debate and discussion but inevitably has run its course for the reasons I gave above.

PS: No offence to anyone who posted here on the last page. My observation is a general one.
