Has anybody mentioned that your name is Mo Fine one of the Stooges, but your Avatar is of Curly another of the Stooges?

Sorry Redleg, I'm going to have to pull you up on this. Mo Fine does not exist. It is Larry Fine, Moe Howard and Curly Howard - others were Shemp Howard and Joe deRita who I think played Curly Joe. So, if you are going to call the poster out on anything, it should be his spelling of Moe (note the "e"). Nyuk, nyuk, nyuk!

 

Knowing MFC's luck, we would pull of a huge coup only to find that he was the one player singled out by ASADA WADA AFL for a lifetime ban, or to be the first to succumb to some poison induced illness. :-(

Interesting how people read things differently. I saw the HS article this morning and thought ...hey, Bombers, stand back from the oscillating blades as the sloppy excrement is about to hit.

Ha ha, if the complaint was from the Essendon camp, huge own goal. Vlad and the AFL will stand up and tap the mat and cop the penalty and point to what they have done subsequently as mitgating circumstances. Guilt for the AFL is more guilt for the Bummers.

You are correct, I made a boo boo.

No, that would be Yogi Bear. Anyway, I'm a bit of a Stooges fanboy (of both "The 3" as well as "Iggy and").

Nyuk Nyuk Nyuk.

Pick two fingers.

Yes ... and Middleton J will poke Paul Little in the eyes with those two digits.

I believe Damien Barrett who is apparently the font of all wisdom and knowledge on these matters is now reporting that at least four Bomber players are now negotiating with other clubs on the basis of the AFL's breach of contract "get out" rule.

I'm still not convinced that any club should be risking taking players under a cloud of possible suspension until this mess is resolved.

 
but they don't know how much, or what, they put into him......but it was perfectly safe !! :-)))

I suppose that depends on how the penalties are applied. If ASADA gives a similar sentence to the Bummer players as it has done for the Sharks players, then most would be available to play for much of next season. They could even be drafted to rookie lists.


It appears from Jacques le III coaches' welcome back party that he is now pepe le pew

Some clubs might take the risk if the player in question is young enough.

im sure the other 17 coaches would have loved to have a years paid holiday in france too

Getting Heppell on your list for 5 years, but banned for 2 of them, is still better than not having Heppell on your list at all. :)

the guy is good, dont get me wrong, but hugely over-rated.

Would rather Zaha but he just re-committed (god knows why) to the Bummers.

Because they have to share their salary cap between like 3 players next year, and they offered Zaha $9,000,000 1 yr contract

Isn't that the suppository of all wisdom?

Now I understand the secret sense in Abbott's phrase.

he didn't take any drugs,. Opted out

Cant escape via the clause that Ryder can...

Is that the case? or is the cause related to a breach in the contract with the club conducting non ethical behaviour in general or directly to that person? it would be interesting to know if Zaharakis would be subject to the clause as it would be difficult for Ryder to walk under that clause with Essendon not yet guilty of drug cheating officially.

Not actually sure about that..

 

Abbott now?

I thought this thread was dedicated to the stooges not A & C! :lol:

Well, there could be a crossover, with Howard, Costello and Abbott ... :blink:

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
