"Tanking"

Jon Ralph just tweeted Dees Media Mgr rushes from training - to prepare for tanking finding??

Ok, we'll maybe it may take a bit longer for an announcement? How long ago did he tweet that? Lets just get it over with!

AFL will hold a media conference at 2pm today with Gillon McLachlan and Andrew Demetriou, regarding the Melbourne FC investigation.

Incredible that after 7-8 months of this bullsh!t it's finally coming to head. Whether it's a conclusion or not......

I can't find that Tweet.

Mark Stevens.


Dee-day has arrived

yep agree, take the deal

And what would that be? The AFL can suck off. No investigation or punishment of those who went before us means no deal.

Who knows, this might be just the beginning?

 

Sometimes you gotta know when to make the deal.

In spite of all fairness, it may be the best outcome we can possibly get.

(Whilst I'd like to do it, I don't think dragging this through court will create the best outcome for the club)

Why court?

The next logical step is taking our case to the Commission. The pros and cons of this should, and probably have been, discussed by the board.

I suppose the fink has his writ all ready to go - LOL

Gee.....I hope so......

Stand Up MFC. Today is it...

You have my vote for what little it is worth

Didn't we reply to the report by the investigators??.......The commission then deliberated ......and the results will be known at 2.00pm today.....It is then up to the club to appeal to a court of law if they don't think the decision is fair.....I might be wrong on this.......


Why so?

I remembered you were supporting Fans B-Bobs views of wanting to accept the sanctions & handover our people to the executioner.

Now we are further along the track & the AFL have moderated, & the papers are turning towards our perspectives (interestingly since the AFL have moderated their views).

The 'Team Fan', who wanted us to shed blood within,,,, are now easing off, & 'Fan' suggests he knows who the louses are. If true, I can only assume Fan has an inside channel to the AFL contacts, or to some on our own board with the inside goss.

This would explain him playing the politics & also supporting Kero. a faction within?

Are you avoiding the question ? What is your opinion ? Did we try and lose matches in 2009 ? Come on. You can do it.

No

It's come to this then?

“ You got to know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em,

Know when to walk away, know when to run.

You never count your money when you're sittin' at the table,

There'll be time enough for countin' when the dealin's done.

If this is really about integrity then the AFL must announce a new Inquiry on tanking across the entire league

Anything less will be a damning indictment on the credibility of the AFL

You know i'm right :lol:

Good god no, please not Kenny... but it HAS come to this:

You know i'm right :lol: '

I will hold all bets for " yes we are conducting an investigation into Carlton, Richmond, Collingwood, WCE, and GWS'.

I am offering odds of 100 to 1

There is no way we will take this thing to court.

If we have negotiated this "reported" outcome then we will not be taking anything to court. We would have taken it on the chin like we always do. Sit Demon Sit ... Good Dog.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
