That's an interesting debate ....and the heart of the issue ...but coming out now is a waste of time ....whatever the club says will be rebuked

But i applaud them bringing in the independent umpire in .....realistically the only solution
I can't find anything refering to this? Either the integrity unit nor the Crows calling it in.

I have no doubt there is a lot of bullshit being espoused by the media (and lapped up by some of our more challenged fans), but i just cannot understand the clubs media focus at all on this.

It was a debacle, made worse by the lack of response by the club, further exacerbated by the horrible mid year presser and then the cluster **** that was the CM presser.

Even allowing CM to call out Sam Mclures bullshit theory was a mistake.

I understand that clubs can't knock every rumour on the head, but surely when it is that specific, you can.

Irrelevant

Club has lost the right to dispute fact from fiction

Media can come up with anything and there’s nothing we can do while we refuse to take meaningful action.
“The reason for the press conference is it’s the bye week and it’s the start of our week”

Men have penises is about the most truthful thing to come out of any of this.

Did you know about the meeting the players had at Texs house and then put it to Burton, Pyke and Fages? She broke that.
Oh, wow. The players talked to each other. Stop the presses.

Theres plenty she added, if you have eyes that want to see it
Not much that's newsworthy. 90% of what she wrote is what she's been writing since March.

The sheer stupidity of Wayne's-World assertion that we called to be investigated by the Integrity Unit.

Last night Fagan thought he had put it to bed on MMM.

This arvo Caro unleashes, Fagan is then supposed to have got on the blower and asked to be investigated, just as we are about to have our B&F. That’s the last thing they would want discussed tonight that we are being investigated.

Only in Wayne's-World is this reality.

She said he issued an apology mid year, or did I hear that wrong? Live on Radio she comes across as far more level, than the sensational bullshit she wrote (ie. she doesn’t know for sure, not sure of all the players, hasn’t actually seen the doctors letter, but knows it exists). If all this doesn’t create some level of reaction from our Club... I just don’t know what to think. Burton HAS to go. Or his role redefined. Was KangaTech the cause of our hamstrings? In which case hiring Saunders isn’t going to help our situation. Or was it that Haas didn’t know how to administer it? Fagan AND Pyke need to hold a press conference and just tell the truth. Warts and all. And then they need to say “this is how we’re going to fix it”.
Rumour is the club went for the bargain basement software package for KangaTech. I have no idea who made that decision
