[Lethal]

Statement from Carlisle

 

[eth-dog]

Well handled. Wish you all the best Jake.

 

[Jade]

Well, no one is accusing him of being the sharpest tool in the shed.

 

[bombadeer]

The evolution of the trade thread through this mini-saga, from pursuing Jake, through to getting him to agree to come, the trade period, the trade, and finally this, it's absolutely breathtaking.

Thread/s of the year. Would read again.

I've already sent this thread to my publisher - his feedback? The Jade posts need toning down for consumption by the general public, but otherwise it's a lock in best-seller - warming up the printing press as we speak.

 

[pepsi]

Haha can't they make the release simpler, more part of jakes vocab?

 

[Doss]

Good on him. Good statement.

You can't stifle my creativity....

 

[Jade]

Good on him. Good statement.

Well took responsibility just over twelve hours after the release of the footage instead of trying to hide or brush it off, so yeah best response in a bad situation.

Statement from Carlisle

The video vasts me in a very poor light and reveals clearly inappropriate behaviour which I regret but am accountable for.

Ahh Jake ... I can forgive many things, but ending a sentence with a preposition? Good riddance, you grammatical ignoramus.

 

[koolmattie]

So Carlisle has come out and admitted it. Lel.

 

[Here_we_come]

Ahh Jake ... I can forgive many things, but ending a sentence with a proposition? Good riddance, you grammatical ignoramus.

Proposition or preposition?

 

[Doss]

Surely the smart response would have been to deny it...

Rediculous PR...

Pathetic, Carlisle..simply pathetic..

How can he deny it?

There's footage of it.

Own it, apologise and move on.

 

[Rack Watts]

Great stuff, didn't deny it, took it head on. Talked about doing programs etc, but said it as a matter of "willing to participate" not "wanting to kick the habit". I'd love to see him go on and do good things. It's just a pity it's not Essendon he will do the growing.

 

[Stopher]

I think that statement basically rules out any thoughts of reneging on the deal. Best to get on the front foot to stop the campaigner media from hyperventilating too much about it.

 

[Howard Moon]

Well, no one is accusing him of being the sharpest tool in the shed.

I.think he's just a simple suburban bogan. If he wasn't a footballer he would spend his life savings on a boat and be sitting by the Murray sinking vb happy as a pig in shit.

The footy money just opened up another world of unfortunatel temptations...

 

[Mootsy]

I'm really annoyed by this. Sorry guys.

The trade yesterday was a happy result for everyone, then there was th Star Wars trailer, and I had a nice lunch..

Then this crap..

 

[Howard Moon]

'i made a poor decision'

What was his decision making score at the combine?

 

[eth-dog]

Surely the smart response would have been to deny it...

Rediculous PR...

Pathetic, Carlisle..simply pathetic..

Glad he left Essendon.

That would be very stupid actually. Denying it and then they find out it was true would be close to irreparable damage. What he did was excellent PR, because he actually owned up to it, unlike many other AFL players who would have denied, denied, denied.

Owning up to mistakes gets you a reputation of being honest. He's not the pathetic one here, you are.

Ease up.

Yeah sure. He'll repeat it.

You're right, but he's much more the ps4, hospitality job and bongs type. Coke is just bongs for the rich though.

 

[Rack Watts]

Ease up.

Hehe, jest undetected.

Except for the VB part, that sounds like a pretty decent life to me. I'm convinced Bogan is an ancient race and I am part bogan, just a little more refined than the 100% bogan (only a little).

Saving next pay for a new sticker bro, gunna tattoo my favorite band on my forearm

Proposition or preposition?

It was bound to happen wasn't it... Lesson learnt
