Discussing the sexuality of a colleague with your mates is not making it public? Of course it is. For peta's sake it was on whats app group chat, with god knows how many members. And he couldn't even be bother typing his puerile rubbish - he recorded it. Apart from anything else just so, so stupid, particularly for a peanut who trades in gossip and understands the power of audio and text to bolster a story and drive clicks. His 'mate' has just made it even more public - which is just one of the reasons why it is is completely inappropriate for him to have discussed it AT ALL, and why he is almost certainly in breach of his work place policies and procedures and you'd think likely to be sacked. Bottom line if he didn't make it public in the first instance then it wouldn't have ever have become more widely distributed. Once he put it out there he lost control of the information. Talking to his mates in that way, whether that was widely know or not, is a complete breach of trust and no doubt a breach of his employment conditions. And in any case do you think his colleague would be ok with Morris discussing her sexuality with his mates, or rating her 'hotness' for that matter? He deserves every single thing coming his way.

Spot on. Goody will change very little from last year. The stars like Salem will always come back in, but Goody will always look to reward players in winning teams. He believes in the incumbency model. So lets say Lever and Petty come back, Smith might keep Hibbered out (if he is still out injured), even though Hibberd might reasonably be considered a better player. A positive of some injuries' down back is that allows Goody to stick with the no change other an forced ones philosophy and still get some time not players on the fringe of selection - providing both a much needed reward for all their efforts and excellent match practice time as insurance should we need them come finals

I didn't read it that way I thought he was laughing at the whole will he or won't he saga.

If there is something, it will come out in time. Too early now as the dogs will be desperate to keep any such stuff under wraps and kill this as a story.

A mate with a lifetime supply of dog food.

Because they can't win contested ball any more.

Ok. Thanks for clarifying. My opinion is that his job is to apt pressure - real and perceived. Create contests. Disrupt. Trap the ball in the front half. Gut run up and down the ground. He does all of those things week in week out. It might sound funny, given back in the day we measured performance on kicks and goals, but any possessions and goals kozzie are icing on the cake. So personally I'd pick him. And on the question what goody will do, it is inconceivable kozzie will be dropped for Bedford this week. Kozzie will play every game this year barring injury. Critical to our chances of going back to back.

I really hope hardwick goes the full Beveridge in the presser.

Blues playing a similar style to us

Fake news. Looking at the actual headline and teaser para, it's his mate who shared the audio clips who has learnt his lesson. Didn’t think it would go viral apparently. That's his lesson Funny stuff.

I agree with all of thst. What I was referring to is that I wonder if Morris if guilty of spreading unsavoury rumours about dog's players or revealing personal details. As the jessie Hogan text suggests, he has form in thst regard. And as the leaked audio suggests he lacks integrity (not to mention, and is a racist, homophobe and misogynist). There is something else going on here than selection related leaks. It felt very personal for Beveridge. But you are right, none of that excuses Beveridge's behaviour. Perhaps helps explain it, but definitely not excuse it. On the above I heard the dogs ceo (his name escapes me) being interviewed on 3aw. Was asked if there was something else here to explain such an over the top reaction from Beveridge. Very instructive answer. After a pause said, paraphrasing, I don't want to go into any further detail and we don't want to be making any excuses. The implication was clear. There is something else at play here. Ironically, needs a gutter 'journalist like Morris to uncover the real story

There is something wrong with being borderline obsessed with the dees. It's too half hearted. Fully obsessed is the go.

Doubt they can sack him from a legal perspective yet. They will have to investigate and dot all their i s

Maybe.

It would explain some of the oblique, seemingly unrelated comments, for example the suggestion of mental health impacts of Morrison's reporting

Yes, i chuckled at that. The content of those audio clips does make me wonder what sort of malicious scuttlebutt Morris might have been pushing spreading to his 'mates' about some of the doggie's players that he wasn't reporting on, but that Beveridge was aware of. It is a very small industry and gossip works two ways. Might go some way to explaining how livid Beveridge was.

Exactly.

It's not only the righty number of talls, having two permanent talls in brown and Tmac who get up and down the ground, augmented by Jackson or gawn is a central plank of our game plan, how we enter 50 and how we look to score. For example one teams do not take intercept marks against us. If we don't mark it, it comes to ground and we then look to score or failing that trap it inside our 50. And the running power of Brown and Tmac means when we kick out long from a point, or down the line after a stoppage, it is to pack that almost always includes at least two of Max, Jackson, Brown or Tmac. Again, if we don't mark it, it comes to ground in predictable spot and we win the ground ball before sweeping it forward. I have little doubt Goody was playing ducks and drakes in the first half of the season. The plan was always to use three talls up forward come finals time. opposition teams simply could not cope with our set up from round 18 on, least of all the Cats and Dogs, when we averaged something like 109 points per match. Why show your cards early? I would not be surprised if Goody plays some similar funny buggers this year.

Is that what you think will actually happen? Or what you think should happen?

Agree with all comments. Funnily enough, i was watching the fox coverage of the game last night and marveling how Fox thinks its flys in 2022 having four blokey, uber alpha ex footballers in Lyon, Bucks, Brown and Riewoldt presenting the footy. Credit where it is due, Bucks was by far the most polished performer. Respectful, smart and informative. The rest spent an hour interrupting each other and Lyon went all blokey, hairy chest out, in my day we would have tagged trac, why don't they now bucks! Lyon, who was nominally hosting, actually looked three sheets to the wind and literally could not stop interrupting the other three. At one point Bucks, having been interrupted for the umpteenth time, stopped trying to get a word in, gave Lyon the side eye and, patted his arm and said something along the lines of 'relax big fella'. And they were like a bunch of giggling school boys, again with the exception of Bucks, winding Morris up about facing Beveridge right before he headed to the presser.

Railing against cancel culture

I swear on my children's grave i posted this before i knew anything about the two audio recordings floating about. I'm glad we didn't have time to canonize Morris. What incredible irony that he has been exposed for who he truly is in this fashion. Surely he is toast employment wise. Dieter, don't the germans have word for the pleasure i am experiencing?

So, let me get this straight, these people who own a deck of victim cards have 52 opportunities to pull out a victim card.

What is this all about?
