it now seems like clarry has gone from villain to victim, all within the week afl media is just another cheap reality show ... no angle rejected if clickable
-
pert has to be a dead man walking regardless of whether all the complaints about him are real or not, he is the one steering the ship and where the buck stops. can't remember when we have previously mishandled so many issues and become the laughing stock of the media and general football public. he needs to fall on his sword before he gets pushed what a disaster

i'm not expecting a really good trade with jeelong but i am expecting a reasonably good trade if we let him go for peanuts or a bad deal then that will really do me in if jeelong really want to get him they have to make a decent offer and we have to play hardball. we must salvage something out of this ... or it should be no deal
-
i'd double down on cats paying his whole salary. this is not a salary dump situation. if that means he stays and plays at casey until he fully reforms and grows up, then so be it hope club shows some gonads and bargains hard
-
not only did he cause this but he looks like coming out of this a real winner. gets to keep his bag of gold with a 6 year contract, playing for a team in the finals window. no downside. meanwhile he leaves behind a trainwreck of people and the club. how many people who tried (vainly) to help, will lose their jobs over this and what a let down for his team-mates, spnsors and club supporters. just grates me that he comes through this totally unscathed and unpenalised
-
that was very much my thoughts too. when we signed him up for 7 years he was already a known problem child there must be standard clauses in all contracts where a contract can be rescinded in clarries case given his history, the length of contract and the high value of contract i would expect any risk manager would insist on specific clauses for behaviour and performance, including termination options. any contract lawyers here like to speculate?
-
i don't think he is on 1.5M/yr x 7 maybe backloaded at end of contract for $1.5m when cap will be larger and inflation has done its usual growth
-
look, we could chat away for ever about who could've, who didn't, who should've but no bad clarry no problem we are all p155ed about this. clarry was a one in a generation player and it is sad, but lets not line up all those who at least tried to help up against the wall and shoot them ... we weren't there and don't know a fraction of the details (and probably never will)
-
you ever heard of the last straw, dr g?
-
maybe, that's a difficult one to read from where we sit it does seem though that an awful lot of club resources were expended on clarry. if he wasn't such a star player he probably would have been jettisoned long ago. remember all that stuff we can't talk about before roffy. it seems to stretch back a long way and it seems many in the media knew a lot they can't talk about except in vague ways about culture etc

To the AFL ‘Browbeating’ Media — It’s time to fight back!
daisycutter replied to Tolstoys Nudge's topic in Melbourne Demons
dunno why you single out the western media, monbon. it's all media ... east, west, south and north truth has become an archaic concept -
um ... i think he pushed himself out, norm. stop making excuses for him
-
"cruel to clarry"? puleez, give me a break this is all on clarry. the talk of clarry's off field behaviour has been the talk of the town for years and now it seems it really wasn't just so much talk hard to feel sorry for clarry for all the damage done to the club despite all the help he has been given

sadly ds, the poor buggers were freshwater lobsters

10 year afl career for 23 games across 3 clubs 2015-2024 not a bad effort. luck is an understatement 😎

you left out the boot studder, jaded 🤣
-
so why not tell us who he is and his family and what his businesses are? at the very least give us some generic hints

how long does it take to melt a membership card in an 1100w microwave oven? asking for a friend

time for another famous pert public statement and letter to members i bet i could almost guess it word for word
-
what did you expect from a binary, white, genocidal colonial ?
-
if it's like other derogatory words like misogyny, racist, genocidal, colonialist, sexist, etc, then it will have a vast range of differing meanings nowadays (depending on one's ideology) compared to the original meaning. you do know it is not a "real" word (unless it has been added recently to the dictionaries) anyway, i think i knew perfectly well what he meant 😂

all this supporter negativity is counterproductive. As the great rdb famously said: if glory and premierships are not to be then it wiil be because of me

i was being sarcastic 😅 many people would kill to get a gf ticket just once in their lives
