THE BOMBERS' SWISS ADVENTURE

[Redleg 40,948]

Just announced in the Supreme Court that Hird's costs order, to be paid to ASADA , of about $750k, have been paid by a white knight.

They weren't a LITTLE amount.

I wonder who the white knight could be.

Hird's claim against the Insurer has now been halved.

PS. Didn't see your post, Choke.

Redleg, I'm just trying to decode your little hint about the mystery benefactor. Surely "white knight" isn't code for Matthew Knights?

The term " white knight" came from the article.

The "bolded" description was my guess.

Hmm. I see nothing in bold. But LITTLE was capitalised. Is that a hint? All too subtle for me.

All according to my uber driver!

As others have said, Little doubt as to who may feel so generous towards the twerp.

Can't believe that Teflon coated pretty boy has avoided consequences of his actions once again. Wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't orchestrated by the AFL. It makes my blood boil that his narcissistic sense of entitlement has yet been further boosted. That money should go to a far more deserving cause.

Think I need a Valium.

By all accounts Little and Hird weren't very buddy, buddy towards the end and neither was the AFL with Hird. 

I tend to think a coterie member put up the $750k... you know one of the influential type that miraculously 'convinced' Charter, Alavi etc not to testify at the AFL Tribunal. 

If my hunch is right, never fear, they will likely call in the favour one of these day, then Hird will pay his dues. 

Nobody stumps up $750K cool ones for no reason ... we may not hear about it but whoever it was will want to collect from the teflon one

I don't understand this action. 

Stumping up money to protect originally, I understand.

But he lost. He is disgraced. There is no longer a benefit to your club.

Why waste the money?

Obviously not disgraced in the eyes of the benefactor. 

And maybe it wasn't for the benefit of the club...re read my post just before yours...its the most logical explanation...

Schools warned not to use banned players

"Victorian schools have been warned not to use the banned  34 Essendon players in any coaching or mentoring capacity even if it is unpaid work...The warning to schools came after one leading grammar school in Melbourne sought clarification from the AFL if they could use one of the 34 players in their football program".

WOW!  I'm gobsmacked!  What symbolic message is this so called 'leading' school giving students: its ok to cheat, its ok to take drugs!  Can they not see the danger?  I wonder what the parents think?

Crickey, I'm beginning to wonder if it is only DL's who keep fighting the good fight, for drug free sport!
