"Tanking"


Whispering_Jack

Recommended Posts

How about all cleared of draft tampering, the club cleared of all charges, CC charged with game in disrepute and a suspended sentence for his poor comment.

May be worth copping.

You know I was just thinking of posting the same thing. If CC was at the AFL yesterday then adding 1+1 and getting 3, something is up. Maybe the charge will not be something as dramatic as bringing the game into disrepute but they will make something up (bad comedic timing when in charge of a seriously poor football club) and if Trigg got 6 months CC may get 3 with a suspended sentence or just a ss and told that the AFL is no laughing business.

Who knows???

Fanbob wants the club to be excused but those that he dislikes ejected, suits his position to a tee. His own little fanbob club sit on the sidelines and clap his every post. It's quite disturbing to be honest, grovelling is never a nice look.

Neither is ignoring facts or making them up robbie, but it doesn't stop you, does it.

Fan has made the point many times that he likes Cam schwab and Connolls. So, the blokes who are most in the gun are the guys Fan says he likes. But you'd have read that by now, yes? So you've either had serious cognitive failings or decided to fabricate a position Fan doesn't have in order to bag him. Says a fair bit about you, doesn't it.

And it says a fair bit about your fanboys too.

I am seeing a fine for CC which of course the Club will pay. The Club,CS and DB cleared because the charges is so subjective and CC is the only identity that has made a confirmed statement. If there is a smoking gun well ... who knows where we will be at the end of the year.

I never mentioned any names but I knew that one of the conga line would respond, you never let me down Tim.

I think that if you look through here you will see that fanbob has mentioned a few times that we could do better than McLardy and Schwab so I don't know what you're on about. I would have thought that if you liked someone (you know really liked not just put up a front about) you wouldn't say something like that. Then again fanbob is quite clever in the backhanded way he "likes" someone.

BTW I don't have a fan club just some on here that agree with me, one thing you'll notice is that they don't gush when they respond to one of my posts, you must find that a teensy embarrassing.

One other thing I love the way one of his subjects responds on his behalf, it really gives me a laugh.

You do realise that you can "like" someone, but think they're not the best person for a role don't you ?

And still they come out.

Yes I do but I also know the difference between reality and a facade.

What do you mean "they" ? How do you think Fan and I get along these days ?

The difference is I can evaluate comment, while you evaluate personality.

To get the topic back on track -

I hear Meat Loaf is actually now the new primary target for investigation.

I think this thread needs closing. Or merging with all the other 'I forget what we were talking about but YOU SUCK' threads,

I cannot believe people actually want to throw CC to the wolves because of an off the cuff joke.

Let's have some solid evidence before anyone is shown the door.

Seriously what has been put up in 7 months??

Macca covered it well in this thread....

Perhaps what we could do with on Demonland is the equivalent of Bay 13 over on Bigfooty. A place where people can just go for it, no mods, no holds barred, where they can say what they REALLY think without hijacking every other thread with this internecine sniping.

We could call it The Cage.

Meanwhile, the bloke who is in many ways responsible for the launch of this investigation, is in the news again ...

Carlton footballer Brock McLean caught in police inquiry after big night out

The Herald Sun has been told McLean was intoxicated at the time of the alleged theft in an administration area of Crown Towers on September 28 last year. The CrimeStoppers release alleged three men rummaged through drawers and stole several items.

Happened back on Sept 28. Would have been handy if the news of it had broken at the time. The case against us would have had to have lost a bit of credibilty.

Still might, depends on how Gillon McLachlan views things.

I'm not for throwing him to anyone or anything, just surmising what may happen. I don't think he will be shown the door but may serve some time in the sin bin. Why would he be meeting with the AFL? who really knows, it's a possibility.

I mean those that hang of fanbob's every word. You upset fanbob, you do that to a lot to a lot of posters because you're a bovver boy with a short wick and if anyone challenges you you abuse them, but now you seem intent on righting the ship. Keep it up, it seems to be working.

Fanbob is a passive aggressive poster who can seem to be all friendly but there is usually a sting in the tail, I used to post like that so I know his style. There's always the "but" at the end, or the qualification of the person under discussion, nothing you can really pick out readily but it's there all the same. I'm not surprised you can't see it, because you don't want to.

It's easy to slip in a few nasty barbs without being really obvious.

I try to treat every post on its merits. I recommend you try it.

according to a poorly written and un-authored article in today's Hun:

Phase II Monday Feb 11 (i.e. AFL decision to charge/no charge)

Phase III Monday Feb 18 (i.e. Commission meeting)

Time to stock up on your liquor of choice. either to celebrate or drown in

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo
