Bravo Paul Gardner for your comments.

Maybe Jeff Kennett should head a charity group "Beyond the Truth" or "Beyond Redemption".

Also Kennett might like to give us his opinion on the AFL drugs policy and his club's attitude and policy toward the "3 strikes" arrangement. There buddy system might not be working as well as they think.

A tick for Eddie for also rebuking Kennett.

Jeff Kennett should say a big thank you to the corrupt Tasmanian premier for his inflated profits. Almost $3m of their $3.6m profits come from that extremely questionable deal that the majority of Tasmanians think is an utter waste of money. Then Kennett has the nerve to piss on our clubs as a result of this BS transaction. Keep your mouth closed Jeff, lest you end up with a foot in it.

Nice work by Paul Gardner on this one.

I was wondering if the Shed's comments would go unchallenged. Seems PG and Co arent going to be rough shod anylonger. Good for us. Thanks Paul.:)

Gardner said all clubs received AFL support in some form, including help to build new stadiums and hold blockbuster fixtures.

Nice to see some truth being stated about all of this.

It is nice to see Gardner standing firm and not allowing us to be bullied.

Congrats to Paul on a great retort.

jeff is just a typical liberal b#$&*d, they never tell the whole truth, only the truth they what people to hear, for example they forget to mention that in Menzies time the interest rate hit 22% but home loans had a government CAP of 13%,he is the worst liar,

Show me a politician who does tell the whole truth!

BTW if interest rates were capped at 13% why would I give a flying fig if they are REALLY 22%? I applaud you for your research though (or outstanding memory) :rolleyes:

It will be interesting to see our annual report in December, from Memory the boards goal was to be debt free by the end off 2008, I wonder if we are still on track to acheive this.

If I was a Hawks supporter and my club was making profits I would be screaming about playing 4 home games in Tassie, I was [censored] off that we sold 2 last year. I couldn't care less if the club makes a small profit or a 3mil profit as long as I get to watch them live in Melb for 10 home games and 6-8 away games and hopefully in 2 years 11 home games I rapted. Saying that though it would be nice to boast a big profit once or twice.

I know i few people on here feel that Paul should be help accountable for our dismal profit this year but i've always liked him and i'm glad he stuck up for us because i don't want the president of our club to shy away from a fight (verbal of course).

Kennett has always been outspoken so i'm not surprised to hear him make these ridiculous comments, but if i was a Hawks member, i would not be happy about us having to sell these games in order to make such a profit. I was finding it hard to deal with one at the GABBA every year, 1 at Canberra still isn't great but it's an improvement.

The day you can make to those profits without having to sell four games and make a sponsorship deal with another state is when you can gloat Kennett.

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
