    Whatever happened to the tanking investigation?

    I agree with your post entirely. Although I did state a couple of days ago, that while I firmly believe we tanked, proving it in a legal and technical sense is a whole other matter, and it would be difficult to do. What I initially asked in this thread was whether people thought we tanked based...

    Whatever happened to the tanking investigation?

    What the article does prove though is that all those moves are open to individual interpretation, and they alone don't provide enough legal evidence to prove that we tanked. While I personally believe those moves part of this whole tanking thing, proving it is a whole other issue. The only way...

    Whatever happened to the tanking investigation?

    The article is a nice change of pace and offers a different perspective to everything else out there. Makes some good points, but in terms of the positional changes (which is my main bone of contention), I don't think it justifies them well at all. For example: - Paul Johnson playing on Nathan...

    Whatever happened to the tanking investigation?

    That's not what I'm basing my opinion on, Djcj. It's based on what I saw out on the ground that day. Was just using McLean's comments to back up my thoughts.

    I'll have a read of it tomorrow. Just about to get some shut eye.

    That may be the case, I suppose only Brock knows the answer to that one.

    Whatever happened to the tanking investigation?

    No other former players have publicly admitted it, but for all we know they could have admitted to things privately under investigation. Media reports (make of them what you wish I suppose) claim that up to a dozen people have given potentially incriminating evidence. By no means does this make...

    Whatever happened to the tanking investigation?

    Cowboy, McLean said enough without having to state the bleeding obvious. I heard his comments live at the time. If he wasn't alluding to tanking then I really have no idea what he could have been referring to. He retracted those comments because the shit hit the fan and he would have been told...

    My post wasn't in reference to yours, it was to Spirit.

    Whatever happened to the tanking investigation?

    Garland was drafted as a forward. Grimes drafted as a midfielder. Other moves made by Neeld were premeditated throught the season as a result of bad form. Many players started the games in those positions (i.e. Watts backline vs Sydney, Bail half forward, Dunn backline, etc). They weren't...

    Whatever happened to the tanking investigation?

    RE: Spirit of 39 Neeld made all of those moves at 3/4 time of the same game in which we were actually winning? The same game which we needed to lose to stay on track to ensure we received a prized priority pick? The same priority pick which is at the very centre of an unprecidented 5 month...

    Whatever happened to the tanking investigation?

    I don't recall Warnock, Frawley or Bartram ever playing as forwards.

    What did Jim Stynes know about Melbourne's decision to Tank?

    Funnily enough, some of our own supporters on our forum are still denying it happened.

    If people are still replying and contributing to the discussion then I will do likewise Crimson. That is what this forum is for.
