Col Garland's opinion

Recommended Posts

Saw Col tonight at Coles and had quite a long chat to him.


He said that Dank is a crap stirrer and that he doesnt think any repercussions will be handed to Melbourne.

He told me although it's abit of a worry for supporters, dont read into it too much as we did nothing illegal.

Agree that there may well be nothing illegal about the drug issues per se.

The problem is the further erosion of trust in the Board by those who matter - the AFL and us.

Was he in the vitamins queue?

He was in the supplements (protein shakes isle)

hahaha.

But he was quite adamant that Melbourne were clean, although i know he cant give away much.. he seemed real genuine and honest.

shell shocked probably,,,

after all the bad press, & all the months of murmurings, & off field attacks from the Media, Caro, & the AFL... wouldn't you want to go to ground,,, if you knew you had done nothing wrong?

Although well be hammered by the media, stay strong.

Col seemed chilled about it, so lets be chilled.

Go dees on sunday.

He was pretty excited for the potential win on sunday.. you could see it in his eyes.

do you think there is any circumstance where he'd have said "I'm really worried cos I reckon a few blokes are right in the shitter"

wouldnt put too much store on Col's ability to determine whether we have anything to worry about from the AFL and even less store on the likelihood he'd blab even if he thought it likely they were going to crucify us

Clearly Dank no longer wants a career in sports science - why else would he suggest he gave supplements to players at a club that are unfortunately well behind the pace. Doesnt exactly support their efficacy.

Let this be a lesson. never ever send a text message to Dank. He has a habit of keeping them

I reckon there might be other clubs who have kept silent (or, like us, denied any link to him) that will be sweating an ocean at the moment.

If we are all clear we can put this rubbish behind us and focus on trying to perform where it counts, the field

Dank is just hitting out because he's being made a scapegoat for something that in reality involved a lot of people. He's refusing to let them sit it all on his head, and good on him for that.

The more Dank becomes 'untouchable' the more he can claim in his defamation proceedings. If he ain't gonna work in this town again then he is gonna take everyone out with him and his big bag of cash.

    POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    The Demons are back in the hunt for finals after a clinical victory over the West Coast Eagles at the MCG which was sealed after bursting out of the blocks with a seven goal to one first quarter.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well
