Nice work Macca. I think this one is jazz (ish). Acid or nu jazz (or not). I don't know, but I though it was worth posting anyway. Jack Jack's Jazz 3.5

It's unfortunate for Barty. You don't expect injuries to finish your career at 24. All the best. Although it is hard to take the Hun article seriously with reporting like this

Three Demons Re-Sign

I'm a little stunned that the Lakers have appointed D'Antoni as head coach. I thought he kinda lost the plot in NY and the players were running the show (Okay, maybe just Melo). How Phil Jackson is spending his Monday.

Wow..... I guess they've got a lot at stake with the new players and payroll they're carrying. Didn't see that coming. Haha, does that mean Van Gundy could be coaching Howard again?

The joke going around is that re-electing Obama is like backing up the Titanic and running into the iceberg a second time. I still don't quite understand how he managed to win the Nobel Peace prize?

So MFC being not for profit means we still have the option to sue for defamation.

Apologies if this article has been mentioned before. AFL's probe into Melbourne Demons is sure to make many people at the club sweat In the article they quote the regulation pertaining to the allegations.

It's about money. They said they had every right to sack/delist him. They're trying to making sure he gets the majority of his contract for next year paid.

Here's a direct link to the MP3 file.

The only way I can see anything happening to us is if the AFL investigators have a Denis Denuto law degree. I'm not worried, but it is annoying that it has dragged on for so long and encourages these negative articles. The AFL integrity investigation is diminishing the integrity of the AFL.

I read somewhere that they were trying to force White onto the Crows. I just don't understand how his contract could be all that large? Surely it was more about freeing up a spot on their list.

Tippett Legal Threat

The Crows and Tippett should have known better and deserve anything they get for agreeing to such a ridiculous deal outside of Tippett's standard contract. But the real villain in this saga is the player managers. They've used their clients leverage to strike a deal that compromises everyone involved. They can plead ignorance, which is admitting their own incompetence. Or they can fess up and admit that they were deliberately trying to circumvent the laws of the game. Either way they should tell them to find another line of work.

I read somewhere he knocked back a $15 million contract to ride on next year. A man of his convictions. I like it.

Are you talking about Stef Martin? I think he was taken in the PSD.

I'm sure we could afford Tippett. But what would it do to our remaining salary cap and our ability to retain players in the future. Also after bringing in Pederson and Dawes would Tippett be needed or make either of those trades redundant?

I doubt we'd get Tippett. Would screw with our salary cap. 3 players in our forward line taking up over $2 million. Can't see it happening.

As I understand it, the only reason this came to light is because Tippett's father launched legal proceedings to enforce the additional agreement so Kurt could be traded to the Swans. The Crows forwarded the agreement on to the AFL to seek advice on whether it could be enforced. Sounds like a case of dumb and dumber.

I hope the player managers get their butts kicked too.

Prendergast is no longer with us so that must be a step in the right direction.

Just on trade radio now. No Tippet deal allowed by the AFL.

I think CIP was referring to his other MFC mates on twitter, ie the MFC crew. Not the official MFC.

Tippet Contract Probe So both the club and player could possibly face sanctions. What about the player's manager?

Thanks. I guess convoluted is par for the course with AFLHQ.
