An apology and ....

Yes, because you managed to put words together in a cohesive sentence.

This time I just thought the content was manure.

Funny, you were on your own and you made it quite clear you had trouble understanding a simple sentence. Nothing new.

On the topic, you obviously agree with the decision from the board to wait a week before fighting back against the AFL's claims we hadn't informed them of our communications with Dank. Why?

You think or you know, which is it?

Maybe he just thinks he knows.

If Melbourne had notified the AFL what the hell was Andrew Demetriou going on about a few week back.

He screwed us a few weeks back, talking BS to the world and making us looks even worse than we have in recent times

One may ask why The Age are still running this story

This is from the 19th April and is still appearing at the bottom of Real Footy in The Age.

It P's me off that our club gets no respect from this rag.

You need to EARN respect.

Enough said.

Well earning respect is one thing and I agree we have been pretty awful. But this is the CEO we are talking about, he is supposed to be impartial.(*****Conspiracy theory warning****). I think he's still peeved at the tanking fiasco, I think he would have liked to jump on us from a height, and this was the next opportunity

As for The Age, their Football journo's n(with the exception of Emma Q and Martin F) seem to have no accountability at all. Write the next piece of scuttlebug and stuff the consequences

No conspiracy here, am just baffled why the club would wait before deciding to fight back. It looks like the evidence shows that we were upfront and honest with the AFL yet we stood back and did nothing while our image was trashed by Dimwit and the media.

We should have fought back straight away.

I tried to defend us on SEN this morning and KB wouldn't have a bar of it cutting me off claiming the AFL were, from his understanding, annoyed as we withheld information from them.

We didn't, but the perception that we did remains as we took too long to fight back and get the truth out in the public domain.

I heard you this morning and I think KB went even further and said that the AFL do not agree with some of what the MFC have told the Commission and there is still a long way to play out with Melbourne. Typical KB - king sniper - always has been.
