Loving the amount of tears over on the Essendon board regarding the umpire from tonight/last nights game
sooo many tears

they are cheap rubbish, play like it and support like it

 

[RookiePick]

Nearly matches the bitter tears on the freo board. Do they forget they support the joke of the comp ? Or is it more they are deluded by endless talk and spin ?

They have tumbled back to obscurity again so the only thing they have left is to cry about West Coast.

If you're the western Bulldogs and two of your players mess up .....

Then just because you're a minnow club it doesn't mean the story won't get out and embarrass you


That or something like it will be Barrett's sliding doors on the Bulldogs tomorrow

 

[Carbine Chaos]

What a sad, pathetic, vindictive flog.

News headline - people, and clubs, make mistakes. The Dogs are one of the more respectable clubs going around as far as I'm concerned.

 

[Quinz]

He's also put "Ross the Boss" on notice. That'll upset him.

 

[WCErevival]

Who cares if they didnt put it in the media anyway as long as they deal with it.

I think the implication here is the Bulldogs didn't deal with it. The incident apparently happened a month ago, and if not for Barrett's muck raking then it wouldn't have got mentioned anywhere.

He is right in this case, but he's just being a smug arrogant prick about it.

We do not know what you had for breakfast, this doesn't make it a secret. Do the bulldogs have an obligation to publicise these things? Does not publicising really equal trying to hide it, and not dealing with it.

Well before Barrett brought the incident to light on Wednesday, it got swept under the carpet. Barrett mentions in Wednesday, Bulldogs fine and suspend Cordy and Boyd on Thursday so it does look like the Dogs hadn't punished either player until it became public.

Boyd got drunk and punched Cordy who was also drunk. Sounds like both players had been unofficially ruled out for selection indefinitely and beverage was using boyds shoulder issue as an excuse to mask his non selection

The Bulldogs had punished them it seems but kept it in house. I don't have a problem with this - the players broke team rules but didn't break any laws* or cause any harm to a member of the public. In house matter dealt with in house. Carry on

*technically the punch was assault but not really something he'd get charged for

Barrett is a drama queen and embodies so much of what is wrong with the AFL media

 

[ioppolo]

Boyd and Cordy got into a fight. So what. What does the public get out of knowing this?

 

[Truckosaurus]

It's the Adelaide one that baffled me on Shitty Doors. "The Crows will win. Or will they?"

Nissan pull their sponsorship for The Footy Show on the back of Newman's tirade against Carolyn Wilson in support of his mate Eddie

Get a ****ing touch Deledio. You're stinking up my SC team!!

Wouldn't surprise me if Richmond go on a winning run similar to 2014 and try to push us out of the 8.

*ducks for cover*

 

[SpaceClef]

We have a similar list to Richmond I reckon. Lots of outside players who look like superstars when things are going well but go missing in tough games.

Couple of elite bookends.

Only difference is we have a good ruckman.

That comment was just the motivation they needed.

 

[Biggie]

Lol at Richmond.

They always make me feel better about our club.

Kennedy saw my post about him the other month too

Holiday for Robbie?

Wouldn't have thought so.

Boooooo!

Umpire just ignores the deliberate rule. Okay.
