i presume "to guess" was meant to be "tongues" lol

yes, uncle. let's just hope they don't deconstruct ron barassi or norm smith. might have to pull a couple of statues down.

what the heck's happened to goldilocks?

B is for Brad is for Bombers C is for Chris is for Cats for those like me who can't remember 🤣

i wonder if there was any afl influencing in the sudden appearance of bs's availability and his speedy appointment?

c'mon nev, don't be such a smartrrrs. you know it was tongue in cheek i was inspired reading an essendon blog and the comments re the new coach. there was so much hate for the scott brothers going back to when they played against the bummers. many were saying they wouldn't renew their memberships etc. much worse than dazzle on game day threads.

bonus prize for the first poster to find a bummers fan who actually approves of their new coach

bs is bs

i thought the afl was setting up an independent panel the afl integrity unit are not conducting the investigation

"congratulations, chris, we're happy to tell you you got the job" "but, but, i'm not chris, i'm, brad" "oh [censored], quick sheeds go and check if adem's still in the building"

you're kidding, surely

do people actually listen to trade radio?

is gooey actually signed up by the filth? news on radio saying the aints are still in race i'm confused or maybe i should get my hearing checked

👍 👏

what makes you think he can last that long?

and if he does miss the peptides gig, we'll never know if the hfc risk factor was instrumental

don't shoot the messenger i don't give a fig either way https://www.foxsports.com.au/afl/no-way-jordan-should-sign-pies-bad-behaviour-clause-that-should-never-be-permissible-revealed/news-story/efba5a9502b099af9c36eb9946836fc4 https://www.sen.com.au/news/2022/09/27/that-is-the-ultimate-edmund-reveals-specifics-of-catch-all-de-goey-contract/

number of commentators now supporting gooey not accepting clause saying there is a catch-all clause simply saying club can terminate if they deem it necessary

adem might have dodged a bullet peptides.....spare me

paywall can you provide snippets?

gonzo, i don't think you will see cross-examination in the sense you would in a legal trial. lawyers no doubt will be pushing for some system whereby they can pose questions in some format to the complainants and accused, whether they succeed who knows. We should also recognise that at this stage we don't know what the rules of engagement will be for the panel, it's all supposition. And finally we don't even know yet whether the complainants will even make themselves available. Some have indicated they don't want to. i'll be very surprised if the panel will complete their investigations and findings in 2 months or anything close to that.

well i believe at least some of the families have already hired lawyers too so expect lawyers on both sides and yes this will not be like a normal employee/organisation investigation, the stakes have risen but as said before, let us wait and see

i think it was a play on words 🤣

yes i agree that's a real possibility and no resolution could lead to all sorts of problems i don't want to speculate on

well, in the interests of justice for everyone i can't see how cross examination (of both accused and accuser) can be avoided, given very specific and serious accusations have been made. Unfortunately accusations can't just be left hanging in the air so to speak, they have to be tested rigorously in a fair legal process, uncomfortable or not.
