Deeg is a troll, if she was not talking bs she would stay and reply to other post, and if it is so, then carlton is next, also anderson would still be there to take the gory to tell the world he was right to start the investgatiaon.d

Maybe Anderson stepped aside when he did because he knows a CEO position will be available should Schwab be found guilty? :ph34r:

Sorry, just in one of those moods where I look for conspiracy theories!

 

If, as is mentioned above, we are debating (bargaining) penalties it won't go to court.

Bargaining is admitting guilt.

McLardy said we will fight it out.

Off to court we go.

Not the worst tin foil hat theory I've ever heard.
 

My question is that if they are going to charge us for this are they now going to investigate all clubs that got a priority pick?

The mind boggles.

Gippy


ah well, they cant take Jack Viney or Jimmy Toumpas from us!
 

So the demonology supporters tell me about other stuffs she has been spot on

Edited by 7-UP

I would have thought it's quite a common practice from plea bargaining in criminal jurisdictions to employers asking employees what they think is appropriate under the circumstances when an employee has stuffed up.

Note, however, that I'm not commenting on whether it is or is not occurring in this particular instance.

If they ask us then we should say that we would be happy with Bailey getting 12 months suspension and the others two months each.


There is no way Melbourne alone can be singled out.

Go wake up Finks !!!

Instead of taking this to court and losing (which being the Melbourne football club, we will), the club should be sitting down with the afl this week and working on a plea bargain. Loss of our first 2 picks next year, a $200k fine and a fake apology (because we all know Carlton, West Coast, Collingwood etc tanked as well)

We cannot afford a serious punishment.

I'm hearing similar rumours. Including AFL asking the club what they feel would be a suitable punishment.

Only a dysfunctional AFL could ask someone how they want to be punished.

Response should be to suggest discussing penalties after the investigations into other clubs (notably Carlton & Richmond) are concluded.

If the response is that no other clubs are to be investigated, then jam your penalties and of to court we go.

I know deegirl is usually spot on but this is AFL knowledge, not Demons knowledge...

We will find out soon perhaps?

my mind is hazy on exacts but as a long time 'ology poster I can also state from memory she is a respected poster and breaks news over there.

Ah, jeez...

I hope no-one else thinks like this.

What a subjugated, defeatist attitude.

It's both.

It's both.

You know what I meant.

Can the Ologists tell me if whe knows her head office stuff?

So.....It takes only one poster to cause panic and hand wringers to abound.......The Prez has stated that we will fight for the integrity of the club to the hilt......I belive him....

No..what we cant afford to do , nor ever do , is roll over like some pup as you suggest.

What a [censored] weak attitude , honestly.


If it's Deegirl from Demonology I believe she's virtually always on the money.

If this was actually the case, which I personally doubt, then why wasnt the club brought before the the AFL commission when they had the opportunity ?

More [censored] stirring !!

Unless someone hacked onto her demonology account its the same deegirl.

http://demonology.midnight.net.au/

and that would stop someone hijacking the nic for here ?

 

It is interesting that on the 'ology site this is all she posted. "Just posted this on Demonland - looks like the AFL will officially charge MFC, Connolly, Bailey & Schwab with tanking."

Nothing else and no replies at all !!!!!!!

yuck....

The one big disclaimer I have stated since day one is we dont know what evidence the investigators have uncovered.

What we have all heard is

1/ a couple of players "vibes" about what "bails" was allowed and not allowed to do

2/ lines uttered by Chris Connelly at a meeting and a committee member at the Sydneyt game

3/ 3 games with "suspect" player positioning and interchanges

4/ no player was told to not perform

If thats all there is - then take it to the highest court in the land - heresay and subjective.

To my thinking, the only way we can be charged and the prosecution be successful is if the investigators have more on us than we have so far heard.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
