Recommended Posts

"After all that [censored] hoohaar on Thursday, what we have is one individual, and a club that has been potentially duped. And surprise surprise some no neck thugby players doin roids. No match fixing in the AFL. So assuming we get off, the AFL actually only has one person of interest. Is this a sick Joke?

We have copped so much enormous and unnecessary additional heat an innuendo over this c*** of a government's political grandstanding."

Just took the above of B'Blitz. This halfwit is blaming the government! The are some real rocket scientists on Blitz. Great reading.

AFL supremo Gillon McLachlan also said "Further, the AFL is not aware of any instance of suspected match fixing in the AFL competition". Isn't tanking, deliberately losing or throwing games a form of 'match fixing'? Just thinking bout MFC with the tanking claims.

In a strange move the AFL is apparently going to dispense with the policy applied in previous investigations and will widen its anti Essendon drugs enquiry to other clubs. Gold Coast Suns and Geelong now in the gunAFL vows to investigate The Weapon's former clubs

What happened to the one club at a time policy they applied to alleged "tanking"?

What policy? On tanking, the AFL can (and probably will) do whatever it likes. With WADA, ASADA, ACC and the Federal government watching their every move, they will probably investigate everything under the sun, and some that aren't (such as Essendon suddenly emvracing an away strip and making a mess of it) ...

True.

I considered that any allegations of "match-fixing" could have been in reference to our investigation.

Obviously not, it would seem...

a wise supporter there.

Many club officials over many clubs have been waiting for this to blow open for over 12 months from What i was told last night. What is found thus far may only be the tip of the berg.

People have known about it...

Integrity in sport!

This has been brewing for 12 months or more, & the AFL inquisition has been running since AFTER that time period.

Integrity & we get caught holding the 'Ball'.

The same ball others had already danced with.

Is the inquisition designed to regain the integrity the AFL sold to many clubs cheaply,,, for rectifiication works?

Is this one big cleanup?

Yeah looks like J Watts is on the junk, christ it took the kid 4 yrs to put on 10kgs, theres no way its us.

I couldn't agree with you more, if we were taking stuff then players like Morton, Gyzbort and Cook would not have looked like twigs when they got traded.

the extra interchange rotations, from the 2 Int', to 3, then 4, has slowly changed the game.

Add, to this, sports science, & the 4 man interchange is too much,,, & stoppers can run a star off their natural legs. Especially with Tag Teaming.

Bring in 2 on 1 star, & add the defensive zone in case of messing it up.

The randomness & spontaneous creativity of a Robbie Flower, has been stolen from the game...

Its time for the game to Go 'Organic'.

I think there is a job for you at The AFL dee-luded

It is the CEO's job.

Yes please I hope I live long enough mate

Was just walking through Richmond listening to Eye of the Tiger on my iriver when my good friend Martin told me that the other AFL player Gillon has refered to was set to do his own press conference just like Essendon did, however the ACC came out with their press conference dust in time first. Sorry, just in time first...

I checked out Bomberblitz and this post raised a chuckle;

'If the Bombers were on EPO or anything else, they might as well give Lance Armstrong his tours back cause the [censored] DON'T WORK.'

Hahaha they are right. These injections were supposted to help with recovery - nek minit - 26 soft tissue injuries

What are drug dealer's policies on refunds these days? I hear most of them really care about customer service

13 clubs plus Bombers said they were not the 2nd club with a player being investigated for performance enhancing drug taking. Clubs that didn't reply were Power, Crows, Pies and Tigers. If other clubs truthful he is from the last four.

We'll know all when the dust settles.

When and how (ie twitter, website?) did Melbourne say it wasn't us?

Good. At h Aaron Finch...

Sorry a little off topic, I for one don't want extra byes this year. Wonder who the other player is?

Can Range Rover start a poll?

Edit: Obviously drunk again, not even going to correct spelling error should give me a laugh in the morning

It'll be interesting to see Cale lining up for WCE this year. I bet he'll suddenly have a chest , shoulders, and thick arms. It's been happening for 2 decades with WCE players. WCE v Melbourne has been like AFL. v. the under 19s.

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out
