thanks luci. so only another 2 weeks of huffing and puffing

A sports lawyer's view on appealing to a Swiss Court and/or an Australian Court. The Essendon 34: Can CAS’s decision be appealed?

anyone know when the cut-off date is for lodging a cas appeal?

oh dear, those infallible climate models again.......sorry hardtack

i haven't had a decent dintbplatbthid in years, jack

i don't think you can just lodge an appeal and then a date will be set for the trial i think you have to first lodge a case for an appeal and only then if the court decides there are grounds can an appeal be accepted any lawyers here who can explain the process? be a waste of time waiting for the media to explain it

lol stuie. i'll just let you and et dig that hole a little deeper. no more info for now

it was reported a while back that the afl are considering this and if allowed, how much. also who should play suspended players at other clubs if payment allowed as is typical afl, nothing publicly stated since nor has tame media raised it lately

i'm sure they did consider all possibilities......and came to the conclusion that a couple of weeks was "worst case" because...............that is what was stated

given this guy is an ex afl employed lawyer it should give you an insight into the type of logic that prevails within afl house when they are trying to "manage" a "situation"

i suppose that is why a club official at the agm, when asked this, said "at worst" we would expect he would only be unavailable for a few weeks but if you want to believe they were prepared for a one season suspension, then go ahead,

just have a look at the book cover, and tell me what direction he is coming from

ignoring that your post is hypothetical, you would first need to find the missing records of the injection regime and secondly you are ignoring the fact that intention to take banned substances is in itself an indictable offence and signing the "waiver" demonstrates intent.

i'd imagine that only the legal representatives of those charged and suspended (the players) could lodge an appeal. obviously with the assent of the players who would be exposed to the expenses of any appeal the rest is just "noise"

dunno why people bother going to medical school. couple of years lurking on demonland would be quicker and cheaper

it's purely up to each club, and of course the player involved this started with essendon who said they would offer an extra year on the contract to their players. so far i don't know if any or how many players have taken up the offer. in essendon's case it is more about trying to compensate players and encourage them not to leave the club as dfas or trades (which is likely at least for some) can't see mfc offering melksham an extra year at this stage. would be smarter and prudent to see what condition he comes back in sept and how he performs in 2017 season. but you never know

c'mon hardtack, you have to be better than resorting to that type of "argument"

or as derryn hinch once said "the dead are owed nothing but the truth" of course it all depends on whose truth, but all are free to present theirs

that's what you get, bbo, for not having 5 toilets

btw, weren't the afl to make a decision on player payments during suspension or is it another thing swept under the afl carpet?

not necessarily, i think it would have happened anyway asada started investigating cronulla without self reporting

let's hope he's not a clayton's midfielder

it is a square box with a cross in it just above the top left hand corner of the quote, the ends of the cross are tiny arrow heads. you only see it if your cursor is in the quote i use a pc not a mobile. maybe it doesn't show on a mobile?

he certainly hasn't got better kicking skills, lucky to make 40 metres on a good day

you can get rid of it above the quote you will see a small box with arrows. drag this anywhere into the quote (it won't move just the cursor moves), press delete......bingo gone however, it is more than just the "feature". sometimes it is broke. yesterday i quoted in a thread, and my reply got posted correctly. later i the same thread i went to post without a quote and my previous quote was still there. i double checked to see that it had posted previously and yep it had. this is intermittent
