That was a play on the word supposition that was used in reference to the gorgon.

There is a precedent. 1953. We were eleventh out of twelve. 1954 Second. 1955-5-7 First. Been there, done that and can do it again.

An innuendo is an Italian supposition.

A few years I was talking to a good mate about Cam Schwab joining the MFC again; and he told me he was once at a function with CS and the good Caro came up and started putting some heavy work into the CEO and, I'm not talking work business, and was bluntly told to take a cold shower.

If you read this article in conjunction with earlier pieces you will find that it is disjointed and doesn't flow like her normal articles which says to me that she was under the influence of something when it was written. Not that it matters much reporters are on the same bottom rung as real estate agents.

I have now got over my initial shock. There are two good things about this episode. 1. Speak to the advertising gurus, any publicity is good publicity. 2. If found guilty the the finding will have been tainted.

Damn knew I shouldn't try to embrace new technology when I don't understand it.

Won't and can't happen. She is trying to force Vlad's hand. He is not that stupid. If the MFC go down we will bring the AFL down with us.

NO the club has taken steps to improve the culture. But read her column again as I have just done. She was [censored] when she wrote her piece. The rant is libellous. I have already sent her a couple of twitters and I would like every one else to as well. The MFC reaction will be interesting. She has even had a go at JImma. She was [censored] and it should be her down fall. And to think I used to like her.

I would like to think that collectively we should consider legal action against her as supporters of the club. This latest diatribe is beyond the pale. I have put up with her articles for long enough. This is now war. First up everyone should hit her twitter and let her know what an unknowledgeable pathetic excuse for a journo she is. Don't be nasty just use her own words back at her. And lets talk about libel action. PS Did one of our boys give her a knock back sometime?

Wrong. Adults call it precedence.

The GWS were given draft picks and other concessions to pick up experienced players from other clubs. This was done to ensure they would be competitive from day one. They didn't do this but poached kids from other teams and traded other concessions which were meant for experience; for more draft picks. The rationale behind this of course was to sacrifice wins today in order to win in the future. If tanking is losing games to prioritise draft picks then isn't this tanking? If yes then the GWS is as guilty as any other team accused of the same. But the AFL have condoned GWS's actions and by extension must condone every other club accused of the tank. They can't have their cake and eat it too. This is their own fault for making rules without giving them proper thought. If MFC get sanctioned then so too must GWS.

And been archived.

Legally this problem would not get past an interlocutory writ of habeas corpus notwithstanding the fiduciary duty of the AFL.

Yeah Robbie. Sanity rules.

Plus they are both EX essendon.

Crissed as a picket.

G&D

Great piece of work. Now the way I see it we still have 6 live selections to make. If what I understand promises made there will be 2 or maybe 3 rookie upgrades. That leaves pick 4 which will definitely used and so 1 or maybe 2 others to be added. I will leave that up to the FD. But what happens next year when we have to delist 4 players ( 3 as per rules plus 1 for Hogan). If we have a good year then headaches for the list committee. FWIW

There are people O/S who watch thru the Aust Network/ The Dees any where over the week end are a maybe to be televised here but on a friday nite it is a guarantee.

Judd did.

We already have full value for these trades. 1. They are off our books. 2. We don't have to pay their salaries in 2013.

Not draft tampering because the agreement said a 2nd round pick whereas SYDNEY OFFERED A 1ST ROUND PICK. Agree with your 2nd point. It's a media beat up.
