No Oppo Supporters CAS hands down guilty verdict - Players appealing - Dank shot - no opposition - (cont in pt.2)

[efcboy]

If we are found guilty - I would expect that there would have to be a penalty of sorts administered. There's not many arbitrations that I know of who don't have a punishment, when you're found to have broken the rules.

On the other hand, if this makes sense, I would hate for WADA, ASADA or the AFL to come out and get a guilty verdict and administer no penalty; just for the sake of "getting their men". That would piss me off no end - but in a round about way, it would comfortably tie off all the loose ends for the AFL and the Government.

I just can't see, if there is a non guilty verdict, how there can't be a Royal Commission on how things got to where they did. Millions in tax payers money has been wasted on a poorly run case - that needs to be explained in out in the open. This may also portray the AFL in a horrible light with sticking their noses in where it was never meant to be.

AD would just have to be upset that he could no longer be the sitting member for Mooney Ponds.

Wasn't it stated that the AFL will push for no penalty if found guilty due to the delays and mitigating circumstances. And WADA would only be pushing for a few weeks...possibly preseason....

On the flip side John Coleman might save our forward line when he also rises

Failing that I'd settle for Matthew Lloyd.

And failing that, Geoff Blythen was alright...

What number on your "failing that..." list is Courtney Johns?

Somewhere far behind Ryan O'Connor's considerable arse.

Anyway players will be serving a provisional suspension again.

 

[Alfred E Neuman]

Royal commissions are expensive AF, and no one cares enough

Don't forget the Maguires.

I know we were supposed to let go judging by the oddballs at the forum, but it doesn't sound like good news for him. Rumours of health concerns or costing his family or something floating around. Being a supporter of this club I understand that rumours don't count for much these days, but this could get real sad. The worst part is that the mouthbreathers will cackle and call it a success. To break a man who refused to break. I hope this is all false and it's just some media ******* looking for retweets though. The end to this can't come quick enough.

Scums of the earth who destroyed this blokes life.

Shit. Anyone have any idea what this is about?

strong rumours that Hird and Tanya have called it quits.

 

[mike14]

strong rumours that Hird and Tanya have called it quits.

Why would Hird make a public announcement about that?

 

[astrowizzle]

Why would Hird make a public announcement about that?

Maybe she said it is time to let the asada stuff go and he wants to fight for his reputation and drag several reporters and afl figures into three mud where he has been for the last few years

 

[ezard15]

Why would Hird make a public announcement about that?

Exactly what I was wondering.

It's the last thing he'd want to do.

 

[Autobahn]

You certainly love posting on all things negative.

Maybe he does, but publicly announcing a seperation from your partner seems to be strange way to go about it.

 

[Unfazed]

Do I?
Not intentional. Um if it helps i think we'll be cleared by CAS, so far Woosha seems great, hope Tanner will be president, am quietly confident that Essendon are going to be a surprise packet in 2016 and am really hoping Hird is back at the club in some capacity soon.

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

The media are a bloody disgrace if 3 years of media secrunity and camping at his house caused a devorce.

Unless he's putting the word out there for the ladies.

Shit. He just changed his status to 'its complicated'

Suspensions are backdated 3 years already so pointless

 

[fishardansin]

Shit. He just changed his status to 'its complicated'

I'm glad he's back at the helm of Renam Industries.

 

[theboxmike]

Media are absolute scumbags. Still can't leave the poor bloke alone.

High profile people often do it. You can have rumours and quotes from "close friends" in gossip rags for months or you can just go with a two line press statement and try to take the heat off and end it.

Just how high profile is Hird now? (Legit question, i dont track gossip mags or most MSM). Now that he is not an AFL coach does anyone really care about him? Maybe hell get some attention when the WADA decision is announced, but other than that...
