Tippett's Gone - READ RULES BEFORE POSTING

[headache1]

So the dictatorship at work. I wonder if the same message would have been given to Eddie.

Even if it was, I'd bet Eddie would tell them to go **** themselves.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Why are some posters saying it's all NC fault what a load of BS

Let's hear them out

 

[Vigawla]

There are hot footy journalists?

That is a set of faces that will peel paint off walls.

Wow, I bet you could interchange Caro's and Gary's (is that his name again? been out of Australia too long) hair and you wouldn't notice.

 

[Donkey Magoo]

Let's hear them out

I heard through my sauce, that NC instructed them to offer Tippett the letter even though they didn't even ask for it. NC also designed the murder of crows jumper

It's okay everyone, the lube is on the way

that won't be enough.

Vader - bad call on AFGM; I've enjoyed his posts since he dropped the campaign to convince people they should be nice to Craigy. Apologies for not supporting you on that but I just flat out disagree. People haven't been listening to his information and reading it in the context of how he is likely getting it. Too caught up on semantic arguments rather than acknowledging he's had his finger on the pulse for the longest from those within the club who want a change of administration given some of the crap decision making in recent times.

I don't know Allefgib...as someone in the anti-Craig camp, I've really enjoyed AFGM's scrutiny of what he sees as the double standards applied to the post-Craig era. He made some very good points that brought a sense of perspective to Sando's first year in the job. And his balls-on-the line Tippett predictions in this thread last month were compelling. Unfortunately, he left his balls on the line there and now he's back with a couple of mandarines shoved down his undies acting like he got it all right. He didn't and he has a habit of rewriting his predictions to fit events as they unfold. Currently, he's applauding himself for a handful of banal observations where he thinks he has scored a hit. Your faith in him has persuaded me to keep an open mind about him recently but I'm off the bus now.

Honestly what does everyone think tiprat will get? id expect it would need to be severe to discourage other players from trying the same

an honourary degree in player negotiation and mediation.

 

[bjn1960]

Well he is atleast off our list. Thank god. I'll be keen to see our penalty tomorrow. Hopefully we'll be on the road to recovery and put this god awful mess being behind us.

Will we actually no by tomorrow evening? Perhaps Monday may be when the announcements are made?

 

[juzzo]

What time does the hearing start? Would be awesome if they had a live blog like the tribunal.

 

[Vigawla]

Actually I'm with Slippery Pete on this.

If the media was all about having either looks or ability, how the %$^# do you explain these two?

Living proof there is no discrimination in the media for either appearance or having the IQ of a troll doll

'either IQ or having the appearance of a troll doll'.

Yeah, she sure has got big languages.

Obviously bilingual.

Have Port done us a favour announcing their big loss today? Might get AFL house worried about the prospective state of footy in SA.

 

[bjn1960]

Sorry, I have a stutter.

I think if we find out tomorrow then it has to have been predetermined. how can 5 parties give evidence over multiple charges and have that all considered and appropriate penalties worked out and delivered in the same day

They say we are pleading guilty and it should be relatively short process....I would expect we will get our answer tomorrow. If they know we are pleading guilty, and that has been openly reported, then surely they will have already discussed our penalty.

that would be the other option.

 

[bjn1960]

Nobody is actually saying this though.

Unless that was a joke that went over my head. Wouldn't be the first time

Which one Stabby? The joke part or the bit it went over your head.

Caro reckons we will cop at least a year draft picks. Crows to back Trigg and Harper and bring them back after suspension And Kurt to miss at least half a year

 

[Johnny Rutten]

Lions delisted Callum Bartlett today freeing up a spot on their list. Tippett-related??

 

[Donkey Magoo]

From Emma Whales article yesterday, the worst bits were when it looked like we had tried (badly) to cover it up. Hopefully that was Journalistic licence.
I am hoping, that by pleading Guilty, we have given the AFL enough room to grant leniency whereas if we fought it then they would be forced into full force against us.

Perhaps Sydney penalty (inadvertently) will be that Tippett is not allowed to be drafted to the Swans.

 

[Crow-eater]

Dunno if this was posted but I'll post it anyway:

​

Kurt up for grabs: lawyer​

AS KURT Tippett prepares to front the AFL Commission, his lawyer has conceded his client could end up at one of a number of clubs in the pre-season draft despite his desire to play for the Sydney Swans.

Leading lawyer David Galbally, QC, will represent the former Adelaide forward at Friday's hearing, with Tippett's immediate football future up in the air.

[sliver member]

the club should challenge if we get banned from the next 2 drafts as we would cop a more serve draft ban than carlton did for lesser breaches.

 

[Donkey Magoo]

KURT TIPPETT: One charge of engaging in conduct prejudicial to the draft. One charge of engaging in conduct in breach of the total player payments.

His lawyer is pleading ignorance, but how can you take the cash and not know. Also, I hope that his Punishment is $$$$$ not weeks, half a mill would be good!
