Geez, I hope the media don't do a similar beat-up story on us.

I hope that is tongue in cheek M_9 we have been belted from pillar to post over the last couple of years.!!

 

sorry M_9 I didn’t see your response.😁

Sounds like Springfield has a discipline problem 

They can't even (b)eat the cats. 

 

Some of you have such a chip on your shoulder. Who cares about Essendon? They've been a basketcase for 20 years.

Apologies. I forgot to mention that it has to be an independent review headed by someone commanding great respect in the football world like Steven Dank. 

Shane Charters heading up the high performance side?


If you do your research you can find one of the associates linked to them. If I was the AFL and Bombers I'd be concerned too.

The lid’s off at Bomberland in this expose by the Herald Sun chief football writer - AFL Integrity warns Essendon over Nick Hind and Jake Stringer’s associates.

The team which hasn’t won a final for two decades had one of the easiest fixtures in the competition but meekly fell out of finals contention after riding high in mid season. 

Now, Robinson reports that AFL Integrity has warned the Bombers to be vigilant over who they allow into their change rooms after concerns raised about players' associates.

“It's believed the Bombers were warned to be aware of a group of associates of recently delisted Bomber Nick Hind, who is known to have a shared friendship group with teammate Jake Stringer.

“It's believed the associates regularly attend Essendon matches and were seen in the Bombers' rooms more than once this season.”

The implication from the article is that the “associates” are possibly gangland figures as Robinson mentions the situation in 2013 when Richmond's Jake King was advised to not bring bikie underworld figure Toby Mitchell into their rooms after a match. 

The culture at Bomberland is rotten. We still haven’t forgotten the doping scandal that wracked the club a decade ago or the fiasco when Andrew Thorburn was forced to quit as Essendon CEO just one day after stepping into the role.

There must be a review of that club’s operations which indicate clear cultural deficiencies at that club. 

Heads must roll. 😀

I'm sure they'll find some way to blame Melbourne for this....

That's not an accurate assessment of the situation or Thorburn's character. You should consider deleting your post.

Genuine question. How would you characterise it?

He is currently head of the board of said, City on a Hill. The church isn't right wing, it is just a church like other churches.

He didn't write an article as you have mentioned.

He hasn't given any sermons.

No worries, you can leave your post but, I think it's quite ironic you are willing to character assassinate someone for something you don't seem to know much about and have listed factually incorrect information.

Just because you don't want to admit it's true, it doesn't mean it's not true, given it is on public record.

Indeed    a very deep hatred.   But I do feel sorry for them,    NOT !!

The good thing is their list is not in great shape. I was worried they nailed the draft a couple of years ago but Cox and Perkins etc. haven’t come on yet

With Stringer Merrett etc all getting on they are in trouble. They need to stop trading in duds like Gresham

Agree, absolutely pathetic.

I asked an 'ethical' AI search engine about Church on the Hill. It came back with this as the top result. I think the robots are getting a bit too clever now. 

 

 

I watched the Roaming Brian that started all this. Hind really has no chill. Might as well have introduced the guy as his gangland mate.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

  • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
