WorkCover coming after the MFC?


What

Recommended Posts

Between tanking, new teams coming in and the draft being monopolized, recreational drug use, supplement sagas, player contract uncertainty and dozens of rule changes, its getting harder and harder to love afl. I mean after a round with several close finishes and some genuine excitement back after a season of blowouts and split rounds, its disappointing that again there is an off field issue subtractimg from that. Just a footy fan hoping it gets back to being all about the players sooner rather than later.

Somewhat interesting no interstate clubs mentioned in that Age article. Thought perhaps the two Coastal Clubs might have been mentioned in dispatches.

This is a Victorian Workcover matter and they have no jurisdiction in other States.

ok will we get cleared? im a little surprised to read other clubs names on that list. I mean geelong and hawthorn. Neil Craig now works at essendon he may throw us under the bus.

Anyway its got all essendon fans excited. Somehow I doubt other clubs have done anything like essendon has.

Someone has lodged a request for Work Cover to investigate, anyone can do it, probably some crazy bombers supporter


i know others have alluded to it......but is this genuine or just a pizz-take?

if real, it really reads very amateurish

We are not being investigated mate. Someone has sent an application to WC to investigate all Victorian clubs bar Essendon, any member of the public can do this, It was posted on a website by a bombers supporter who always writes pro Essendon blogs. Its garbage

No worries Daisy. Its not a document from workcover mate, its a document some idiot has lodged with work cover, could be anyone.

oh, thanks for clarifying

so it's not a document from workcover itself

Workcover have unleashed a damning report on Melbourne during the Bailey years.

Apparently we didn't do any.

Some recruiters have also been reported for not working.

We are not being inestigated, An Application was lodged today to ask VWC to investigate all Victorian clubs except for Essendon but noone knows who lodged it. Who the hell is Ian Robinson, amateurish at best. Im betting Robbo did it :). Its a beat up by some desperate Essendon folk, probably a supporter, just an opinion not fact

I believe you have been the subject of some workcover claims Biff, so your experience could prove invaluable.

Some of my employees here at the Gat are prone to lying.

It's a part of their stock in trade,essential in the industry.

You are probably never at work long enough to experience an injury except from the odd RSI pain which is probably caused from your private alpaca work.

It's a beat up. There's a story on the afl website but I'm using an iphone and can't do the link.

All that has happened is some idiot has made a request to VWA to investigate all the other vic clubs. VWA can then choose whether to even investigate at all.

Even if they do, unless a serious oh&s breach has been made all they can do is issue an improvement notice. Only if they don't comply from there can any action be taken.

The whole thing sounds like a [censored] off Essendon supporter with too much time on his hands

I smell Essendon...

Agree

Perhaps the other Victorian clubs should say to Essendon, "You Win! We quit the AFL. Essendon it is all yours." Then they could invite the interstate teams to join a new comp, a sort of super-league, only difference to the current AFL would be no Essendon. Open it up to the TV stations for a new broadcast deal - A one club organisation or the same comp without Essendon

Clearly I am exaggerating, but....

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had
