Tippett's Gone - READ RULES BEFORE POSTING

[Gets!]

Hurry up email I have to go to bed!

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Are we still believing that this Tippett Contract Train Wreck is an isolated botched negotiation on our part, and not consistent with the rest of our operations?

Dont agree we should have accepted Sydney's pick as it was already smelly, how we didn't accept Brisbanes offer last year is beyond belief. Arrogance, greed and ****ing stupidity. w***ers.

 

[headache1]

Not far off it

Yep, pretty much exactly what I was expecting.

They did however mention that they do not accept everything that's been reported in the media.

 

[CrowGlen]

Not far off it

Plus this one:
"We look forward to the hearing next Monday and then being able explain directly to you and all our members, sponsors and supporters exactly what happened, why it happened and how it happened."

 

[Macjoe]

The good news for Sando is that it will buy him some breathing room for years to come. Neil was able to play the "poor drafting under Ayres" card even 10 years after the drafts in question.

How I wish there was a 'Don't Like' button.

Dumb article. AFL have already said they were suspicious of the lopsided trade. They would have asked some serious questions. The AFL are said to of been gobsmascked that Adelaide would accept so little for its highest paid player.

Someone post a copy??

We want to tell you, as a Crows’ member, sponsor or supporter, about the most recent developments in the AFL’s investigation into our Club’s contract arrangements with Kurt Tippett.



As you probably are aware, the AFL has laid various charges arising from its investigation. These involve the Club, our CEO Steven Trigg, our General Manager of Football Operations, Phil Harper, former General Manager of Football Operations, John Reid, and Kurt Tippett.



We will explain everything to you as soon as we can. We appear before the AFL Commission on Monday next week to respond to the charges. Out of respect for the AFL process, we are unable to provide comment on these issues until that process is complete.



We can say that we do not accept everything that has been reported in the media.



Throughout the past three years and the recent trading period, it was always the Club’s intention to comply fully with all AFL rules on the draft and player payments.



We look forward to the hearing next Monday and then being able explain directly to you and all our members, sponsors and supporters exactly what happened, why it happened and how it happened.



We thank you for your patience and support. We really appreciate it.



Rob Chapman Steven Trigg

Chairman CEO

For the benefit of non-members.

The most pertinent sentences are the ones highlighted, particularly the part where it says that the AFC does not accept everything that has been reported in the media.

It had better be good, otherwise we're in deep shit.

 

[Schulzycrow]

Thanks guys...well we wait again until probably Tuesday and another six days of intense speculation and wild rumours. Gonna be 22K by Tuesday night for sure.

 

[fairfooty]

To me it suggests there might be more to this than we are guessing about now... And as someone guesstimated some pages back...

 

[Wood_Duck]

They keep giving us a glimmer of hope.

 

[Defacto]

how long until we see this from trigg:

"The important thing is that the club and suporters band together and focus on 2013..."

Don't forget "Crouch will be eligible to play next year"
