North Melbourne have Self-Reported

[RUNVS]

Will be interesting to see how that pans out. I suspect he's yours, but there is the decent chance he may not want to be coached by his Dad, or his Dad may not feel it best for him to be coached by his Dad.

We should send Ryan Pagan up to get in Nick's ear.

There are positives and negatives for both I think

In favour of North Melbourne

- Doesn't get coached by his father
- Likely to get games earlier
- Likely to get a big contract shortly after signing

In favour of Sydney

- Gets to stay in his home state, maybe his actual home, so he stays with his friends
- Probably been a Swans fan since he was old enough to understand the rules of the AFL
- Gets to be a part of a side that is in finals contention

It is illegal to offer a draftee a new house to play for you.

Cmon North, start following the bloody rules.

Yeah, I'm not an idiot. Mine opens up the paywall because I'm a cheapo.

Anyone else a little disappointed it didn't have to do with drugs?

I'm on mobile, but I eventually got it after opening and closing in incognito a bunch of times. Thanks though

Yeah me too. I haven't been able to use any of the old tricks for a least a couple months. Getting harder and harder to get through for me.

Even if their dad played in two flags for us?

s**t, how many kids to how many women does Wayne Carey actually HAVE? You could have a senior side, a V.F.L side and a womens' side composed entirely of Careys

For a fleeting moment there my little chimpanzee brain wanted to believe thread title would deliver news of supplements, scandals, and genuine surprise at seating arrangements.

For a few seconds at least, I lived the dream.

Oh in a perfect world what would have happened is North realised one of our players was given or had taken something that's WADA banned.

But we keep impeccable records and immediately self reported and there's a clear chain of what the played took and when.

The AFL and ASADA say no great biggie, just get a TUE and here's a token $20k fine.

This have led to a hugely entertaining explosion of Essendon sooking about how they were scapegoated, and all other clubs did it,and it proves the AFL went after the Mighty Bombers as they could cop it and minnow clubs can't blah blah blah.

Would have been ace fun for a few days.

 

[gavaniacono]

I'm holding fire until the other suspect Victorian clubs are named!

Poor Ryan has been trying to flog a car park on Fleming ton Road for over a year now. Either that or he's forgotten to take the board down.

It does have his mobile number on it, I might text him with my idea of him telling Nick Blakey about how shitty it is being coached by your Dad

Couple of days? Pfft.

We would have milked that scenario for months.

Attracts idiots (not saying everyone) who want to let us know every useless detail.

It's not the only way to stay in touch.

The most disappointing thing would be if it was for drugs... would have been a depressing waste of peptides.

 

[I Remember Bluey]

Good thread titling to encourage clicks.

I actually thought it said, North Melbourne have self deported.

 

[pazza]

They actually did have the cash after all!

I'm surprised it took this long but comfortably reassured by the fact it was an Essendon supporter who finally did it.
