That makes far too much sense for the AFL to even consider such a move.

Noooooo... I won't believe it! Is this saying that Essendon didn't win.. and that Dodo has been a fraud for the last 20 years!
What a shit club, they're so concerned with "winning" off the field that they've lost sight of what a footy club is actually about. You know, winning ON the field.
Just goes to show there's a bunch of egos running the show.
Btw. My take on who won, definitely Essendon. A player signing to THAT club, whether it's for 5 or 6 years, is an instant loser.
Edit: and Essendon aren't even concerned about winning off the field. They're happy not to win, as long as it appears they're winning.

I will repeat. Essendon are building the best VFL team ever.
They needed to. Finished 17th this season, one in front of us and we were sh*te.

They did not want to sign Parish for six years. Parish said six, they said no, Parish said six. Essendon released a statement saying it was at LEAST five. And now we find out it is six. Who is the joke here?

Just bizarre. Between Dodo and Parish's manager, they have made a story about nothing.
These people have little perspective.
Sheedy, Dodo's protector, continues to poison EFC. This Club has more in common with the literal backstabbing seen in the last days of the Roman Empire than with a Footy Club.

I would 'like' this post except I don't trust your information. Sorry, you've just been too unreliable, too often. If you're right, I think it's a good/illuminating post.

I hate Collingwood but I do think the reigning premiers should get to open their season in front of their home crowd.
Although Collingwood fans will probably outnumber the GWS fans even at GWS' stadium so it might as well be a home game for them.

Personally think every season should open with a GF replay, but I see their reasoning and it's sound logic they are using.
That felt weird writing that about the AFL!

Laura Kane has been promoted to Executive General Manager of Football. I dont understand how someone who oversaw operations at North Melbourne during the time North dug themselves into a hole so deep they still havnt got out of, has earned that position, or is the best candidate for that position? She clearly made many mistakes and has handed out 3 years of free trade and draft compensation to try and fix things.
Today the AFL website has an article stating AFL house has just employed Geoff Walsh to work in its Football Department.
Walshs resume includes time atAFL VFL clubs - Fitzroy, Carlton, North Melbourne, Collingwood, back to North then back to Collingwood. He then joined St Kilda but only lasted a few months.
Walshs appointment follows the appointment of Mahoney as General Manager of Football Operations. Mahoney previously worked at Essendon and Melbourne
Something that stands out is the ZERO representation of ALL clubs outside of melbourne. Is this the boys club in full swing?
The other thing that stands out with Walsh (similar to Kane), is that..
Having only lasted a few months, Walsh failed at his last appointment with St Kilda.
His time at Collingwood prior to this was, when Collingwood made terrible contract calls resulting in salary cap enforced dumping of players like Grundy, Treloar etc. These poor list management decisions came from higher up than the list managers, ie. Walsh and co.
Prior to collingwood his time at North (along with Kane) set North up for multiple wooden spoons (and its not over yet).
How are these people who clearly failed in their previous rolls, the Best Person for the job?
