Peter Gordon explores Swiss appeal and injunction on suspension

[Muggs]

Do you have any idea what this figure represents in % terms?

Was 9.58% success rate up to end of 2013. As not call cases have been translated not sure the exact number since than to work out how many losses. Wins on appeals are so rare they get translated quickly. I know it's under 9% now.

Could be a reunion of sorts. Get the band back together, etc

Would this bloke get a passport?

This photo cracks me up every time! Can someone explain what was the deal with the mini-eski? Samples? Keeping his packed lunch cool for a day in court?

 

[Muggs]

Can't we all just get along?

Educate Garlic Muncher?

Grazie mille!!

Almost in Buckley's and none territory, then...

Chris may have to stay at a youth hostel

I'd say so a good hotel here will run you easily 350+ a night

I think Australia said that about Lindy Chamberlain - just saying !

You reckon the players are innocent and a dingo took their PEDs?

Why don't I just turn water into wine whilst I'm at it?

Look for Dingos with huge muscles.

I have it on good authority it was Meryl Streep.

I for one cannot wait for the melts from the Australian media when they find out the case will be run in one of German, French, Italian or Romansh

I am just pretending that this is some kind of double bluff

Lance, just monitor the next 4-6 months of fed media. It may be interesting.

The EFC insurers are in the hole currently for 20M, give or take. Their only logical way to get this reduced is for the players to wear more culpability.

The players are playing with fire putting off any claims.

But maybe the insurance co have even insisted on the appeal. Gives them more time. It is in their interest for the players to be seen as culpable. Plenty of games being played still imo.

I'd imagine one M. Robinson will be somewhat amusing on this point.

 

[Garlic muncher]

What a perfectly constructed analogy.

It is very similar to all the criminals in jail being innocent, which is the common analogy used on here to describe the Essendon players.

You have probably used it yourself many times, liked it even more probably

I have done neither, actually.

Though I am building up to helluva post in which I compare James Hird to Adolf Hitler.

Better than just run in CAS, no one except for a bunch of Essendon haters understood that language, - hang on !, that would be the bulk of the AFL's 800,000 members.

Protein-enriched ice cream, chocolate and vanilla flavours.

Yep, really.

I've already explained to you how. Talking heads in the media, so called experienced lawyers, talk crap like how de novo shouldn't have applied. A law graduate cuts through all this BS and explains it for what it is, not for what someone with an obvious agenda is trying to spin.

My point is that even someone like a recent law graduate seems more reasoned, knowledgeable and logical than a veteran lawyer like Gordon who should know better. Hence why his little FAQ there made them look like incompetent fools. That isn't sucking on his wang, that's just stating facts that anyone with a brain can observe and take in.

So then it goes back to your ridiculously condescending post. The guy you were replying to was a law student/graduate. So what? You're just being a prick for the sake of it.

did you really just call me a prick?

 

[Armchair Critic]

This "decent lawyer" is trying to argue that de novo doesn't apply and CAS has no jurisdiction. I would never hire such a buffoon.

That is what Lawyers do

If they can't get Assange in front of a Swiss court to testify, they've got Buckley's of getting this bloke on a plane:

Surely not the first time that's ever hapened.
