According to Tom Browne’s timeline (he has done a great job reporting today imo) we have a three hour period between David Barham being named President and the conclusion of Essendon’s emergency board meeting.

He is now confirming Rutten not sacked with confirmation to come from the club shortly. Would love to know everything that happened in those three hours.
 
Imagine the run sheets for 360, On The Couch, Footy Calcified...

At around 1 pm today
Board spill at * (had to move to get Clarko - sing their praises)
Rutten sacked (Was always gone, not up to it, blah blah blah
Clarko to * (inspired and decisvie by *, a truly masterful piece of management)
Roos miss out (and all the fallout from that - make sure you stick the boots in)

At 3pm
Board spill at* (what a rabble, unstable)
Rutten safe (as he should be, give the guy a chance)
Clarko to North (and big sponsorship announcement, great move by the roos to go all in, the future is bright, how good is LDU)
* miss out (what a rabble thinking they had a shot at Clarko)


Hope they used pencil as there may be more twists in this tail! Better not swing back again...

Crazy days

I long for the ignorant blissful days of dim sims and rice cookers.

The general treatment of Rutten in this instance by everyone in the media seems to me to be a new low. It’s like as if he doesn’t even exist in people’s minds, in their headlong rush for something “different”.

Rutten was treated with absolute disrespect by the media, but above all, by the AFL itself - there is still the speculative clickbait article on their website. They should be completely ashamed of themselves for this abomination.

Gotta feel for Ben Rutten regardless of what happens, seems like a decent bloke.
 
I'm convinced KIA34 is David King.

Hear me out... Kingy starts the chaos last night on The First Crack just to sink the boots into * "they should be embarrased they didnt go after Clarko". He then does it again on morning SEN this morning and plays a little dumb "* are a bit late aren't they?"
If Kingy wants there to be absolute chaos, then it would make perfect sense to light the match and then just sit back and watch. The timeline works perfectly with KIA34 going radio silent.
 
You know through all of this... and all of the s**t I've given Tom Browne throughout the years... he's... he's been a good one today. A voice of calmness if you insist.

Thank you Tom.
Is that true?

Someone told me that Browne went early with Rutten sacked.

Didn’t see it myself but that is what I was told.

Same person said that they would believe Browne over Robbo, so there is probably my answer LOL

Dimsims and parmas served?

Good rice cooker will actually do a delicious " samgyetang " in 3 hours. I'd say the * board are enjoying a late lunch.

Def Footy Calcified. Reckon we'll get a better go on 360 with Robbo and OTC with Garry. Maybe not NR!
