The main victim in this heinous scenario is Chris Connolly, a loyal servant of the club whose punishment certainly doesn't fit the crime.

I noticed on twitter that Jon Ralph is suggesting that Chris is a "monty" to be new Casey Scorpions Community Programs Manager. I like the idea but wonder if this could be done within the terms of his suspension given the Scorpions are affiliated with the MFC.

They are a separate club. We have been told that several times and they play in the VFL not the AFL. He was suspended from the AFL.

Interesting Patrick Smith is calling for Schwab's sacking as Bailey reported to Connolly who reported to him. He said this of Demetriou who was calling for greater governance standards in the AFL:

"He could start by asking why Melbourne's chief executive, Cameron Schwab, has not resigned in the wake of another catastrophic episode in the club's history.

Bailey reported to Connolly, who reported to Schwab. Whether Schwab knew that Connolly and Bailey were preparing sides to lose is irrelevant. They were answerable to him."

As they are all answerable ultimately to the AFL, perhaps he should be asking why Demetriou hasn't tendered his resignation.

He smells some blood in the water. But he and Caro are not big enough sharks.

Patrick Smith has zero stature in AFL writing in a 'Sydney' paper read by very few, and Caro has herself knee deep in mud at the moment.

Funny. I was thinking last night that maybe he could be a full-time Assistant Coach to Casey's Part-time Senior Coach. (That would be a novel first...! LOL)

Not such a bad idea.

He has (a month or two back), he thought Demetrio set up the conditions that led to tanking and should take the fall.


A great article from Martin Flanagan in today's Age concerning Chris Connoley. Have had a bit to do with Chris and he is an unfortunate victim in this whole saga and doesn't deserve the stigma he has been landed with. He is a true Melbourne person who has the best intentions even though his execution may at times be misinterpreted. I think he deserves more support on this forum.

Someone should tell Smith that the workers at News of the World also reported ultimately to Rupert Murdoch.

Let's see how long he lasts at News Limited if he follows up the line of thinking he has over the need for CS to resign by calling for Murdoch's head.

  • 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.
