Rumour Someone in the AFL out to Get Eddie?

So it seems we have a rat in our ranks.no evidence just an opinion but I would say it's Hine.

Of course you're entitled to your opinion, but can provide us with a little insight into the methods you use to form your opinion?

Is it Hine's shifty eyes? Did you toss a coin? Did you read tea leaves?

I like to sit in the lotus position in an oxygen tent channeling HOOBA HOOBA, the Mayan god of truth. I reckon the leak came from Colonel Mustard in the study with a candlestick holder.

Robbo is just pissed because his source told him that up to 11 Eddie Mcguire's may be involved it's after 9 am and he's already on his fifteenth schooner.[/S]

What about a succession plan with Ed transitioning to Mick Malthouse?
As president Mick would be more taciturn with the media, would know football, been in a few teams premiership window, is familiar with the Holden Centre.
Best of all can even act as a mentor or trusted advisor for the coach.
What could possibly go wrong?

(I'll see myself out :D)
lol saintly the club would implode
 
Actually I'm pretty sure Ed does think Caro's a witch; and to be fair; witch-dunking is a tried and tested way of dealing with the issue.

Does that make Ed a warlock?

Or what did one scoundrel say to Angel and Buffy in their battle with such nasties like vampires:

Piece of wood, stake in the heart, its gone! It's a classic!

Robbo beating up on Collingwood immediately after Jobe gives his Brownlow back...hmmm. I've said it before and I'll say it again, every time the Essendon saga reaches a flashpoint, the press dream up a magpies scandal immediately after. It's a classic diversionary tactic. Before I'm dismissed as a conspiracy nut, do your own research. You'll find that this is the fifth time they've pulled this trick over the past 3 years, and it's usually facilitated by Robinson (Essendon supporter) or Wilson (McGuire hater) on behalf of the bombers or afl.

Caro writing news stories to take the heat off the Bombers? Off to the Bombers board you go, give them the good news in case they missed it.

As much as we love AFL football, the AFL is sadly a very amateurishly run competition.

Constant mishandling of issues, not least the Bombers debacle and the way information continues to get leaked from the top are just some examples of the situation.

Ultimately I believe, and I'm sure you do too, Collingwood Football Club will be around long after the youngest of us has departed this mortal realm.

Fear not. These stories will go down as a mere ripple in the ocean of VFL/AFL history.

Yes Robbo has been a massive Essendon supporter in everything.

  • He is also J Hirds chief polyp searcher.
 
In fairness, some reporters have an agenda.

I get that, but I don't think it necessitates nastiness.

There's plenty of journos I'm not a fan of but ultimately it's their job, and if it upsets people enough to start calling them names then maybe stop reading the rag they're published in!
 
To be fair, Robbo hasn't done his job of reporting for a long time.

I would not be surprised to learn that Robbo wrote that story with Ed's blessing.
