haha, probably both ways
asada thought that would ensure co-operation plus they could keep them close
afl thought they could use it to "control" the damage as is their mo
bad choice for both
i'm not supporting joint investigations bb
afl/asada really compromised themselves by this little arrangement
maybe they thought they could "control"the afl by letting them pizz inside the tent - i dunno
i think the answer is in nsw
there, asada didn't get co-operation and it really bogged down their investigation and consequently essendon (et al) too
still, co-operation doesn't have to involve joint investigations
you do realise that was briefly in the 1860s?
shortly after australia was new holland and tasmania was van diemans land
bringing up such ancient history is not too relevant to modern times
we may as well gsuppose
maybe
the tipping point for the afl sanctions including finals was the ASADA INTERIM REPORT and to a lesser degree the Switkowski report
this could still have been delivered without a joint investigation (though probably unlikely)
you do realize some journos take out memberships to multiple clubs as a token form of assistance
do you want them to be able to attend closed sessions?
closed is closed for good reasons. they don't want members attending then splattering it all over some forum or blog site
crazy idea
collect from the disadvantaged and then distribute to the disadvantaged
yeah sure i believe that
it's just sheer greed, and all to watch a bit of training ffs
the very fact it is so hard to see a game at geelong is all the more reason to open the gates to anyone free on open practice days
these type of policies also have a habit of escalating (thin end of wedge)
what about all the kids who don't have a membership for any number of reasons
if mfc did this i'd cancel my membership (seriously)
can't you remember when you were a kid bb?
i don't understand this term "dark" It is far too vague
For example Richmond is predominately black (ie dark) and Melbourne predominately navy blue (ie dark) yet there is no clash
i found last year that our clash jumper (predominately light) was a worse clash with the St.Kilda jumper than our home jumper
