Ouch!?...

...And I think he actually says he and Jake have invested in an (existing) family business. So not so risky, that support by the club! Maybe an investment in a future sponsor? (cue discussion on how we might 'use' an insect repellent association...?)

I hope Bugg isn't offended.

Hopefully we can repell Richmond's mosquito fleet.

    Good luck to him for the future, though we never should have traded for a player that GC knew was cooked and didnt offer a contract to. We funded his insect repellent business starting up though i guess. 

    We did not really trade for him he came for free with may.

    Can see that this Paul McCrory situation and on going concussion issues just getting uglier and uglier for the AFL. Going to be interesting to see how they respond.

    yeah, and the afl have gone from completely backing him to backing away from him at a rate of knots

    You have to feel for Kade and anybody who suffers from something debilitating and potentially misdiagnosed.

    kade has claimed that paul mccrory misdiagnosed his condition and concussions when he was at gc17

    Kade Kolodjashnij accuses former AFL concussion advisor of downplaying his brain injury

    Wasted 90 minutes of my life in a concussion related discussion with said individual. Was invited to follow-up lunch but declined stating that I had a prior and more palatable appointment 'sticking pins in my eyes"

    They'll bury it like everything else they deem 'distasteful'

    Not sure about that, they are just playing it safe by staying silent aren't they? If he has made errors the afl as his employer is likely also responsible. Infringing copyright or the like doesn't necessarily mean he made poor decisions in his role. Having said that l was always sceptical about his trade and the supposed neck issue

    What I'm not sure about is the context.  It has been stated he plagiarised some of his research, not how it may have affected his conclusions.  This is what AFL policy is based upon.  If his conclusions are supported by other researchers, the AFL doesn't have a real issue and the guidelines are fine.

    The second point, was he treating these players as an AFL employee or a private doctor.  While the publicity is not good, if it was in private practice, not an AFL issue.  

    Though listening from last night "on the couch" Kade, may have gotten very poor advice which meant he continued to play when he should have been resting.  I wonder who McCartin. works with?

    he wasn't meant to be treating anyone from 2018 from the sounds of it, but was regularly still involved in clinical treatment at the afl's behest

    whole thing sounds like a mess

    So sorry for Kade.

    I was effectively forced to move due to safety concerns about my former neighbour, an ex rugby player. I am pretty sure he has CTE ... his temper would escalate within seconds.  

    I didn't feel safe living there any more. (Long story.)

    The issue with plagiarism is it is a clear indicator of poor integrity and feigning expertise - which I'm sure impacted his ability to correctly diagnose Kolo and others

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

    • NON-MFC: Round 02

      The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

      As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

    • PREGAME: Fremantle

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

    • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

      Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
