Sorry rjay, but this line of thinking is just rubbish This is just the modern thinking of diminished responsibility where it is always someone else's responsibility and despiite one's own culpability there is an opportunity to enrich ones self I just don't buy it If (and i mean IF) they can prove essendon deliberately misled them they may have a case against them But the afl.....please.....this is just more victimology and blame shifting

praha makes a lot of sense i don't think schwabb's vision was necessarily wrong. you need to separate the vision from the implementation it was his implementation that was flawed. he obviously didn't get the right buy-in from all the other staff, made errors of judgement, and he has to carry the can for that if the team had won more games, if we had luck on our side with drafting (the lottery) his vision would have looked better a lot of things (and people) conspired to create the mess we became, with schwabb unable or not flexible enough to steer the ship schwabb however, wasn't alone in making mistakes

the fixture is already hopelessly compromised in so many ways, we can live with another inequality

nice one fester

don't you mean the oil well? scarves are acrylic

oh, you were talking about sheedy's nut case comments.......not my allegorical retort about how nutters are so prevalent at the hangar

yeah, just like geelong being the only vic club to enjoy a true home ground advantage. that wouldn't skew the competition would it?.

what didn't you understand?

lol - i think essendrug must use IS based psychology methods to attract all the nutters - working well too

you might be onto something sue i seem to remember reading somewhere that the waiver was signed after the supplement program was started

out of curiosity, when did jt's hip problems become known? i always thought (presumed) we (mfc at least) knew about them prior to the draft

i just knew you would butt-in in a blaze of glory

never understood the fuss it was all resolved by a good old-fashioned, democratic, people's vote (and very convincingly) what's so bad about that?

very nice stuff richard.....congrats

and therein lies the rub

and surprisingly, od, you have forgotten blazergate and then there is buglergate......i could go on.....

well, consider the fact the club has received a few complaints re scarves in the bin then they get your letter, omitting such information, and asking for a large number of free scarves it wouldn't be a stretch for them to maybe be a little suspicious of your letter now, i do think you are genuinely sincere in your offer, but it would have been better to have worded it like watchtheeyes said above no bigee, but just saying

earl, you're right i read the wrong column in wiki.......duh put it down to senior brain fart

presume it's because he only played his last 4 years in the last 25 years

better write it down somewhere so you don't forget it, moonie.

i thought it was just "brace yourself"

you're the new dl growth spurt champion, tingles. one foot in 5 months - can't see that being beaten i'd always thought "growth pains" was more about emotional changes. didn't realise it was physical for very fast height changes.....interesting my brother had a bit of a spurt at 14 (nothing like yours or the above) and the only thing i remember is that he both broke arms at the same time lifting weights. they just said chalky bones that hadn't fully set.

hmm.... nearly 10" on the old scale in one year and at that age.....amazing that would have to be very exceptional, though mandee did similar it must have been an incredible feeling for you to go from runt to giant

wow! that is [censored] incredible (unless you had a typo) did you go on a paleo diet or visit mr danks?

academic wiseblood. maybe i should have just said that that should have been a lesson he won't forget. let's hope so
