Starcy, again!

On that note, how awesome is the Perth test match with their stupid time zone. Means I can sit here and watch the cricket til 8PM.

Would be nice if I could watch it.

I'll go back and read now ....don't go anywhere

It had appeared the Crows' and Tippett's AFL hearing was drawing closer to an end after inaugural Crows chairman Bob Hammond left AFL House about 11.30am

I did read it somewhere ...just can't find it now

But above quote suggested somethings holding proceedings up .....Tippett i'd suggest

STARC!!!!

Cmon Aussie

 

[macca23]

South Africa 3/63 almost on lunch.

Kallis only made a piddly 2. Bonus.

 

[Hendersloane]

It's obviously taking so long because they're torturing Trigg, Reid and Chapman with dance music.
Tippett they're just showing every one of his shanked kicks to... we could be waiting a while yet.

Starcy, again!

Shoud have played from the first test

Our attack has lacked variety and was desperately in need of a left arm quick

Bye bye Hilfy

 

[Godallblighty]

How would they have the slightest idea

Is that why they have been there since 7.30am?

Given that they are actually there in person, I imagine they got a progress report at lunch time. Jeez folks, calm down.

 

[WaynesWorld19]

Come on mate be real. There have been negotiations and no doubt plenty has been agreed. But there is still a process to go through. This has really got to you in the last few days!

Yep ...as a glass half full guy i have found myself this week in the empty half

Always believed the club was well administered .......this has caused me to become very cynical now

Don't think I'll accept anything from the club in the short-medium term without some cynicism ....have always accepted what they told us

 

[Crow-eater]

Dammit now lunch at the cricket

*goes back to listening to the crappy music*

The AFL is coming out to give the journalists an update on proceedings and timing

Think not !

 

[Geoffa32]

Got a wedding to go to at 4.............was hoping for the verdict before then, doubt it now.

 

[macca23]

Is the length of time that this hearing is taking a good sign or a bad sign??



Possibilities

Each side and individual is presenting so much evidence in their favour which has lengthened the hearing beyond what was originally anticipated - allowing for due process

The AFL Commission aren't happy with the plea bargain struck because it is too severe

The AFL Commission aren't happy with the plea bargain struck because it is too lenient

The AFL Commission members can't agree on the penalty.

The AFC are arguing vigorously that there is no evidence of exceeding the salary cap (they said they were going to do that) which potentially would knock back one of the main charges against them

The AFL have come up with more damning evidence (unlikely because it would cause the hearing to be abandoned on the basis of natural justice.)

One of the individuals is fighting tooth and nail v their charges (Likely suspects Tippett, Trigg, Harper in that order)



Thoughts anyone??

Love having a left arm quick in the side.

Sounds pretty spot on Macca, my best guess is the bolded or the one in italics, with the bolded more likely

 

[Draft Bored]

I would imagine the length of time would be related to Tippett and unfortunately might see him with a lesser penalty. Pretty sure Adelaide and the AFL had come to an agreement prior to today.

Who gives a crap what we get for Kurt, I just hope there's another 5 days left i this thread.

Looking back through my posts in this thread, this was from the morning before it erupted.

Be careful what you wish for, eh?
