if Gerry boy had any love for the Dees it's long passed.I only ever detect veiled contempt. I too think he's a Swannie through and through these days. That in itself I have no problem with, each to their own but I expect a more balanced perspective from professional commentators. He lacks this.

of course ...its the way of the coward !! ( aka a gutless, p!ssweek wonders )

and you think its ONLY a couple of ex employees ?? LolMr Kerrigan has sage advice for you

Well i suppose the upside is we will discover who the enemy within is At the next agm it should be put that these people are not of a fitting character and ought be banned from holding a membership.

I didnt use "human"...lol.

Match fixing...hmm When this debacle is over, dusted and done Id like to see the club go back and find little gems like this and sue the lilly white arse off of douches like Barrett. These worms need to be brought to task for such cavalier throw aways and made to realise like any other mortal, ; you put pen to paper, or finger to keyboard you better be bloody well prepared to stand by it.

Somewhat ironic in that its plain ( to me ) that much of this inquisition is nothing more than an opportunity to use the MFC as an aid to his (AA) failed ambitions. So an ambition's tool exposes an ambitious tool !!

How well you might have several names in mind as footy equivalents.

thanks..just wasnt sure which article..cheers

must be getting thick ( er ) is this online?

I think We're Justified then in calling you Ancient

Have a Merry Christmas all and most importantly a safe one !! Cyu all on the other side ( aka Boxing Day lol ) Cheers

Have passing interest in some but passion for only one !! Go Dees

I only actually care about one team called Melbourne . The one that plays footy....the real footy Could give a rats about rest...sorry

With any luck might have lost an idiot or two as result. A thank you to tireless workers

and you're totally oblivious to those that have agendas and are the ones who goaded an imbecilic afl into the inquisition.We didn't load a gun and aim it at ourselves !!!!

What a ridiculous statement if you dot mind me saying. You have NO idea how someone else will handle something unless there is ACTUAL history of an event and actions. Youre guessing. You may have an opinion to the management of the club and this colours your ability to see things for what they are it seems. The club has done valiantly in my opinion to be able to play this game of loaded chess.

Id say he was just shoring up his defences. Best defence is an attack. Its what all parties ought to be doing is lining up the armory(s) . The AFL has line up its proponents and ammo ( or what it thinks is so ) and the only logical reaction is to line up yours. result. standoff/stalemate. All walk away

This simply cant go near a court. The AFL loses even in the very unlikely event it wins ( which it wouldnt i feel) The trigger is the levelling of charges against the MFC. The AFL actually control the outcome currently and dont dare for its own sake lose that ( control) . ergo there will be no charges. irrespective of whatever has actually transpired; good , bad or indifferent you have to start at the desired outcome and work back to see how this will pan out not attempt to speculate on where we are now and work forward.

Im still thinking if i was to lay any money on anything to do with all of this is that what we are seeing is the strategy of the AFL to exit from this tar like mess . Of its own creation I might add as not only were the circumstances under which teams existed and effectively competed for draft picks but the recent inquisition is of its own doing. Someone get them some crutches as surely they've shot themselves in both feet now.!! Im sure Vlad doesnt expect to come out smelling of roses from all of this but if they can avoid reeking of a water treatment plant they will consider it a success i reckon. What I think many are missing in all of this is the required posturing of both parties in order for a "believable" outcome of non action to work. if Melbourne said, oh me, oh my, bring on the punishments , please please be kind etc Then all the world will expect a punishment to be given as we've literally asked for one, as well as admitting guilt . If however we get our backs up and say" bring it on , at your peril, we aint taking no [censored] from no one !!" it sets the perception in the publics eye that 1) we dont consider ourselves guilty of anything and 2) the AFl had better be able to prove beyond all reasonable applications that the MFC did anything that warrants a charge. If then the AFL trumpets ot the line that theres no real case to answer etc etc etc, this can hold water. The AFL gets to hold its head up and say rightly all avenues of inquiry are exhausted, no chargable foul committed, lets move on.

and I can still recall the horror and derision at Vineys appointment to recruiting.Where did all the knockers go i wonder ? Lol

mine does similar, even after you think you've checked lol

I'm sure the club knows what it Finks best !!

Kinda funny, you'd think the vultures ( read usual suspects) would have been all over this like a rash !!! Strange silence. What little is lip service really. Perhaps some already sense the non event and wish not to be having to eat crow !

someone flag this post !!!!
