    Did you expect him to say something to the contrary??

    If he did have any knowledge of this he probably would not have commented otherwise he would look a bit silly if he resigns 12 hours later but then look at Neeld....

    Riccuito is not one to make outlandish statements. He was the first to break the news regarding Tippetts brown bag payment. SEN were talking about Goodwin being a mate and Bomber Assistant Coach. Although it was speculation regarding Goodwin being Riccuito's inside info.

    CLASSIC...... I thought it was supposed to last a thousand years?

    If only he had a few more years he could have created his master race of Peptidians.

    There will be many of these rumours.

    Hird will be attacked here and usunder. He has ruffled feathers that normally are NEVER ruffled !!! how dare he the yound whiper-snapper.

    This is a game....Stakes are big.

    Its brinkmanship

    fun fun fun

    Sky News taking on the story. They say its not confirmed, but not normal for them to run a story (as the headline sports story) unless they are fairly certain it is true.

  • Quote

    Until we wait for confirmation on this one one way or other, I have a hypothetical.

    If he forced to stand down on Thursday,does this mean he does the team selection on Wednesday night?

    I have a few Dream team issues to sort out. thx in advance :)

    Oh dear a rumour thread.... I hope BBO and Biffen shoot it down seeing they're the rumour police these days. Hate to think people only shoot down posts made by people they don't get along with....

    Stu my old mate. You just don't get it do you? As I said last night, ask the mods why the Sylvia thread was shut down. I think that would be in your best interests to avoid future embarrassment.

    I'll leave it up to you two intellectual heavyweights to decide which rumours you want to report to mods...

    Stuie, there is a massive difference to talking about what the media is currently discussing, therefore continuing the discussion here on DL. The Sylvia discussion was about one or two ppl seeing Sylvia at Crown one early morning. Massive difference IMO!

    Try not to pick a fight where there is none Stuie. BTW, you're a good dancer. Not sure about the suit.

    True. One was told to me by an extremely trustworthy friend, the other has been relayed by a footy player who works in the media and no one here knows personally....

    Right on the money as usual Stu. I can't help but notice the media storm over Sylvia and apparently Melbourne have suspended him for the rest of the season.

    Yep great source!!!!

    I didn't start THAT thread. I made it known I didn't expect or want any action. I mentioned it as an example of how nothing has changed at our club.

    Oh, and the Essendon hating, Hird hunting, rumour loving Caroline Wilson just shot down the rumour in this thread... Try not to cry into both sides of the pillow.

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons are back at the MCG for the second week in a row. They face the Suns off a 15 day break without their prized recruit and former Demon champion Christian Petracca. This will be a massive test for the Demons who will be facing a genuine Premiership contender. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: Carlton

      The text messages started flooding in shortly after quarter time. One read: “Is Melbourne even at the ground?” Moments later, as Carlton’s Elijah Hollands kicked the first goal of the second term, the Blues held a commanding 43-point lead. By then, the Demons’ only score was a behind kicked by Brody Mihocek nearly five minutes into the game. Ironically, Mihocek would also register the last minor score of the day after the game took a dramatic turnaround.
