Bombers scandal: charged, <redacted> and <infracted>

Featured Replies

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: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

    Captain Max Gawn still has a massive lead in the Demonland Player of the Year Award from Christian Petracca, Kozzy Pickett, Jake Bowey & Clayton Oliver. Your votes please; 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1.

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
