Opinion Non-Crows AFL 4: The Centre Cannot Hold

[maxlilly]

Yep.. and if the crows hadve done this sort of deal with the saints and crouch.. we’d be stripped of our first and second draft picks this year and next year.

Because essendon are involved.. watch it fade away quietly into the abyss..

AFL are only now doing a “probe” because other clubs aee blowing up..

We tried to do a deal with the Saints for some other players but the AFL knocked it back in the Crouch negotiations

 

[maxlilly]

Morris needs to reflect on the person that he is now and has been, but also the quality of "friends" in his life.

The old, who needs enemies when you have friends like that, comes to mind

 

[Crow till I die]

This quote from the AFL says it all

'The AFL said it would not be commenting on the Daniher situation.'

Yeah..imagine if it was us, they would be attacking us from the rooftops through every media mouthpiece

 

[MatthewB]

I'm sure we can adjust.

Showdown gameplan:
Kick it to Aliir
Kick it OOF

i see that gameplan started yesterday

 

[Scorpus]

This probe into Daniher deal needs to result in draft pick sanctions for Essendon and Brisbane.

Hahaha the AFL giving draft sanctions to Essendon? They didn't even strip them of pick 1 when half their side was banned for drug cheating

 

[GrommoT]

Hmmm... if the lions are trying to rort the draft compo system..let the draft sanctions roll on them i say. No way we would get away with this sort of stuff

Joe deal in limbo: AFL probes Daniher contract, rivals ask questions - Joe deal in limbo: AFL probes Daniher contract, rivals ask questions

They should just make Joe play for Bris for free in 2025/2026.

Remember when Malthouse said that we had been speaking with Eddie Betts when he was still at Carlton and then there was an inquiry

 

[GROTTO]

The old, who needs enemies when you have friends like that, comes to mind

If I had someone in my friendship group that could sell someone out like that, I would want to have nothing to do with him.

Its not even taking the high moral ground either, the guy who had this recording, sat on it and waited for the perfect moment.

Correct, we began talks with Eddie about 18 months out too.

Looks like it was one of Bevo's mates

No, strip essendon and brisbane of 2022 and 2023 1st and 2nd round draft picks for draft manipulation. That will benefit all the other clubs who were disadvantaged by the deal.. if the evidence is obtainable

 

[GrommoT]

No, strip essendon and brisbane of 2022 and 2023 1st and 2nd round draft picks for draft manipulation. That will benefit all the other clubs who were disadvantaged by the deal.. if the evidence is obtainable

Come now... that's completely unrealistic.

 

[footy4ever]

I'm sure we can adjust.

Showdown gameplan:
Kick it to Aliir
Kick it OOF

So…keep the same plan we had yesterday?

 

[GROTTO]

Yes I heard that. I was thinking though someone must have had that recording from his group of "friends" and leaked it to another person (ie Bevo's mate) and leaked it to the media?

 

[DJ75]

Essendon can be sanctioned too, they were in on it and the main beneficiary.

No chance this happens. Absolute zero. Won't even be considered.

 

[DJ75]

Im still clinging to hope for Pick 2 for Brouch. Its never too late.

I'll take it for this years draft. Please and thank you.

Hard to find evidence if you don't actually look...

 

[GROTTO]

I'll take it for this years draft. Please and thank you.

You know it was a joke?

 

[StonesThrow]

Wouldn't be surprised to see Geelong tail off in the latter half of the season when the older bodies tire.

People should really learn to stop saying this stuff about Geelong.

 

[Crow till I die]

Come now... that's completely unrealistic.

probably but it shouldn't be if they did manipulate it so Essendon got pick 8 when they never should have based on a back deal for a longer term contract at less money per year. after the event.if thats what has happened / is happening

 

[SugarShane]

I'm sure Essendon and Brisbane know how to delete emails.

 

[Crow till I die]

I'm sure Essendon and Brisbane know how to delete emails.

Hillary clintonesque

 

[DJ75]

It was?





Yes I know.

 

[DJ75]

I'm sure Essendon and Brisbane know how to delete emails.

If not they can always call Trigg and Chapman for advice

 

[treeman]

I think at worse they just won't let it go through and Brisbane will be stuck with Joe on the salary cap for the big dollars.
