  1. Because that would undo all the work the club has done in growing the club in one of the fastest growing municipalities in the country.
  2. Don't boycott The Age, just Caroline Wilson.
  3. In the photos on the MFC website Dunn looks to have trimmed down a lot.
  4. Get a grip? Re-read the context in which I wrote it, I was merely passing on the information, not making a judgement on the issue.
  5. The allegation that Connolly threatened people with losing their jobs if the team kept winning is probably the most damning allegation so far.
  6. That's fairly embarrassing to get shown up by Craig Hutchinson. I just hope we can see a repeat performance once this is all over.
  7. "Even losing heart in one final game for an earlier pick seems more forgivable than systematic planning, career-ending threats and a plan which seems to have dragged on for weeks leading into months." Terry Wallace in 2009
  8. I was overseas when this happened, so I never saw the game but hearing Frawley say the team was down to one fit man on the bench must count for something.
  9. What worries me is that she is saying all this because she knows 100% for sure that Melbourne will be found guilty.
  10. She said on 3AW that she is receiving loads of hate mail from "disillusioned" Melbourne supporters. No doubt it is a big middle finger to us, and it's working.
  11. What? There is bias everywhere, I don't care about political persuasion is all I'm saying.
  12. Even with statements such as: "What Melbourne did in manipulating results was disgusting."?
  13. What really annoys me is this is exactly the kind of reaction she is after, she is pushing all our buttons. The Age (which I used to like, especially compared to the Herald Sun) will be selling more papers and getting many more hits on the website.
  14. "What Melbourne did in manipulating results was disgusting." I'm by no means a lawyer, but if Melbourne are proven innocent surely these kind of statements can get her in trouble?
  15. Caroline Wilson was just on 3AW. I notice they didn't take any calls, she makes my skin crawl.
  16. That's true, but none the less the point the OP made is still valid.
  17. I think it was a statement that the club wouldn't have a trial by media as much as anything.
  18. I agree, he and Fitzpatrick make Cameron Bruce's ball drop look AFL standard.
  19. What if it was a joke? This is the problem, they need concrete evidence.
  20. I would say the individual would be punished, unless there was evidence it was under club instruction. Has anyone else noticed the argument against Melbourne has moved from "Melbourne did tank" to "Melbourne conspired to tank"?
