Nank kind of mongrel? I'm sold!

What a strange view. Do you think Baker was pulling the strings behind trading pick 3? Do you think he specified it had to be pick 14? WCE wanted baker, courted him, and paid in the end what they thought he was worth. Baker nor Richmond forced them to take him. What WCE paid is completely on...

Are WCE fans legit paying out on Baker? It ain't his fault whatever you traded for him. That's on your club, not Baker. You won't find a more heart and soul player, gives his all every week and is tough as nails. Will be watching from afar.

Tanking is doing it on purpose. Richmond didn't ask the 4 players to leave. We are however making the best of the situation. No doubt the media will muddle it up "they cut too hard," etc.

On ya Balta! Will be there when win our next flag. Multiple dynasties in the yellow and black ;)

I agree we don't want to hang on to Bolton if he doesn't wanna be at Richmond, but don't under rate him because of the past two years where a) our senior coach unexpectedly walked out and b) the wheels fell of in 2024. Bolton is a freak footballer, and the type to tear apart a final..or win a...

Even commerical DNA tests can determine the likely relationship of the match (e.g. brother, uncle, cousin etc) and I'm sure the cops have better analysis... The "other PK"? Wasn't he just a cousin they tracked down in Greece to get a quote from? Seemed to me he lived and grew up in Greece. Wild...

Yep I read that they questioned him, and that it was the alibi that mainly moved things on. But that remains my point, they believed the alibi/story quite quickly - about a week or so after the murders there's multiple articles in the paper talking about the theory the killer dumped the knife at...

From 1977 .. ''The knife had been wiped clean. But scientists found blood inside the knifes brown plastic handle'' the article also notes, ''Inspector Noel Jubb said that it was possible that the blood from Miss Armstrong's wound had cleared away any trace of Bartlett's blood.'' Is PK...

You're jumping a step ahead. The problem wasn't double jeopardy laws, or that there wasn't enough evidence to prosecute...Because they didn't get the far. They had tunnel vision for some other people, believed this kids story, and ruled him out. What if they had pushed him harder? Pushed the...

Agreed, people cut them a lot of slack. PK is found nearby, with a knife, with human blood on it. Lives very close by, has a connection to one of the victims. At the inquest, it seems the knife PK is found with is thought to be the murder weapon. PK's whereabouts is unknown, but they accept his...

"About a week after the killings, he was pulled over by police in a routine patrol near Easey Street, and it was recorded in coronial proceedings that he was carrying a knife. He was also named in an inquest into the deaths as the person who found the knife used in the killings but was not...

He lives 300m away right? Surely he ain't trying an armed robbery down the road without a balaclava...at which point he could of bailed. Not sold on the robbery gone wrong turning to a brutal murder and SA.

Not sure on Brock. Kouroumblis was known to police, they were patrolling the area in the weeks after. I think they must of kept the knife, on ABCs 730 report they seemed to be saying they concluded it was likely the murder weapon and accepted the 'kids' story that he found it. Edit: haven't...

So on ABCs 730 they are saying the knife found on Perry back in 77 was identified as the murder weapon...and that it was generally believed that he had found it that night. I knew he was found with a knife, I didn't realise that they thought it was the knife.

And then undoes his whole alibi? In which he lied, and got multiple people to lie for him. Also, don't they believe the SA took place post-murder? and the DNA evidence is semen.. Seems like pretty strong evidence..plus the knife.

Indeed, either way, it'd haunt you a bit..

Seems the burglary charges basically got him out of this at the time. Supposedly was found with a large knife in the boot of his car, had blood remnants on it but had been wiped clean. Question extensively; claimed to have found the knife, and had a strong alibi related to the burglary charges...

Hutchy actually had a good take on it, called GCs media spin abhorrent, and essentially along the lines of - why does a 'lowly' club like GC think Dusty, an all time great, would have to convince them...and play for chips.

Dusty hates the media, but because he never says anything it allows the media to write story after story with just speculation, which in a way helps them...if it is a 0% chance, he could backhand GC, and the media, with a simple social media post.

Dusty should of been AA last year. Strange season. Doesn't play opening round against GC...retires before the end of the year effective immediately, doesn't play a farewell game...which would of been against GC.

Dusty is a legend, always will be. Doesn't mean you can't criticise the exit and how it's been orchestrated. Getting sick of the ''3 flags mantra.'' - ah well they got us three flags they can do what what they want (so Dimma is all good to f*&k us over then?). Same goes for the ah well we won...

Dunne indicating we will hold pretty strong for a good deal, mentions they respect and are supportive of the players requests but goes onto say ''they're contracted players, it'll take an extraordinary deal to make those moves.'' Good to hear

hey hey, we might go back to back and win 2 or less next year..

They were sorta of middle of the road up until 2021 weren't they though? Mitchell only took over in '22. Mitchell seems to have done well. But it's a pretty rare example, lots of teams go down and don't come back up for a long time..

The whole debacle reminds me of a couple who tries to break up and fails the first time.. Likely beneficial for both parties to move on. Deep down Petracca doesn't want to be there. If he ends up wanting out in a year again his trade value only goes down.

It's at least partly related to the coach/this year. They might not have a particular problem with Yze, but is there a clear vision that they are sold on, are they inspired to play for the coach? It's not particularly common 3 of your best want out at once. From the outside I can't see a plan...

Ahhh 1983..the beginning of a great era. Let's hope history isn't repeating..

Always loved the way Baker went about it. Sad to see he wants out. Can't remember seeing an exodus like this, basically every player in their prime (besides Balta?) seems to want out..

Do we know for sure he chose to retire? Could of played another year for sure.
