AFL investigation

Featured Replies

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.

Thats a great promotion for the AFL.

IMO Vlad was sent on a LSLeave, jaunt to have him away. the chalice was thrust into AA's hand by those who acted in Vlads convenient absence... part of the near handover? has gill got a new desk yet?

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?

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.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • 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.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    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.
