mods, i think it appropriate that this thread has the title changed to "die Bomber Schweizer abenteuer"

Not without offending the Swiss court with such bad German.

 

See Slobbo has got Heppell a gig on AFL 360 while he is suspended. Jobs for the boys isn't confined to politics. Surprised Gerard Whately would have anything to do with it.

What a surprise, another mouthpiece on a News Limited product to defend the drug cheats. Pathetic and transparent.

 

Silence of the Lambs

Welcome to 360 Hepps . . Bleat! We is innocent! . .  Bleat! Hirdy was a great coach! . . Bleat! We was sacrificed for the good of world sport! . . Bleat! Bleat! Bleat!

GMAFB!!!!!!!!!

Other than the locality of dialects , there are the 'different' Germans, sort of. There is High  German.; the formal German used in Education, documents , Law etc etc.. Then there's standard ( low ) German. Day to day German  and can vary a bit upon region. Then there is what the Germans like to call Lazy Deutsch... Here they invariably refer to what the Austrians and Swiss do to the mother tongue !! lol  Is a little how the French perceive Canadian French  (or rather Francais Canadiens !! ) :)

 

( possibly  FATHER tongue  !! :unsure: :rolleyes:)

All true. I was just extending the range of torpitude to certain Australian locations.

yet to see a better translation of title, preferably in everyday swiss-german. that should cause further amusement

Then there's "Kinderdeutsch". Which is Dutch.

An interesting article about the CAS decision and why the players could not get a 'no significant fault' discount' ie to do so you need to admit it got into your system, which the players vehemently chose not to do. http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/nation/bombers-case-lowers-bar-for-guilty-verdict-says-athletes-advocate/news-story/e84c28265b4b4d984309394ea5c5199e

The article (inadvertently) highlights another epic fail by the player's legal team:  'The dissenting panelist is ­believed to be...appointed by the players to hear the case'.  Mr Jacobs, who has argued more than 35 cases before CAS said. “It is three arbitrators and it is generally a majority rule. So you can pick someone that you are very confident is going to go your way but, unless that person is going to be able to persuasively argue to the other arbitrators and have credibility, it is not going to help you in the long run.’’ 

This suggests the legal team again failed to understand the subtleties of how the CAS arbitration system actually works in practice.  

They thought they clever arming themselves with Swiss army knives..... Alas it was the shootout at the 'you're not OK ' corral !!

Their Legal advice was and still is 'out of it's depth '

Surely this would require AFL media accreditation which the AFL could not provide to a suspended player?

I agree with this guy. justice has not been served here!

They all should be serving a two year ban and not just ten months.

  • NON-MFC: Round 07

    Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
