Great does that mean we will finish 9 th as well

The way the afl works we should get punished in 2020

Interesting. Didn't move to Carlton after our tanking allegations?

My ears pricked up at that too...

I was expecting some form of investigation.

I am curious myself what the hell we were doing, or whether we just let Bates do his own thing.

Fine and another admonishment probably...

 

Kick away AFL, we're all numb after this season anyway, and won't feel a thing!

Oh God now we take centre stage do we? Surely we were the control group, taking the placebos! While people are rejoicing on the penalties to EFC it sets the limits for our potential punishment. We lose draft picks and we are stuffed.

Given the idiots in charge of our club last year what chance we have any confidence in the governance of the medical staff and what they may have been up to!


what ever happens no one make a joke.... !!! :unsure:

Will a $1 million fine kill the club? Can we afford another scandal? Tanking and performance enhancing in a short period of time. Wow. Oh I forget we were fined for not tanking.

Can they ban Neeld retrospectively? Wasn't doing much coaching this season anyway.

They can't do anything to us cause we are already paying a heavy price for our own self inflicted fart ups.

They are considering giving us a pp what they are going to do ban us from the draft?

The other thing this could make it harder for us to get a coach.


Apparently we are going to lose our first two picks in the draft. But we get priority picks for the next two years to compensate!

I would think that we're the AFL to decide to kick us when we are way down at our lowest ever ebb, and having made huge moves in governance and personnel, our once great club would be stone dead and buried.

We would certainly attract NO players of any value in the coming trading season - absolutely none.

Certainly were an investigation to be ongoing at the start of season 2014, we would struggle to get 5,000 members. And I doubt if they would instigate an investigation were they not pretty sure they were onto something.

a nothing investigation

If there was anything of substance related to us it would have come out in the press by now

Think we should have a chill out for a second. Would be surprised if we were taking blokes offsite , carrying out stuff like Essendon. Lets wait a second before the floggings begin.

Suspend Mark Neeld.

Most likely punishment involves Mark Neeld being reinstated as coach of MFC. A punishment for all involved.

From memory it was only a couple of players and not the whole team like the dons.

I know Craig's and trenners name was mentioned but can't remember much more than that.

No doubt the media will remind us all.

I've forgotten what we were supposed to have done. Did Jack Trengove get some cream rubbed on his foot or something?

Bit of a different scale to 125 jabs.

No surprise at all, will be interesting and potentially frightening to see what happened and where we stand.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

  • CASEY: Richmond

    The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
