Oppo Camp Non-Essendon Football Thread XVII

[Damo666]

President Glen Bartlett has commenced legal action against the AFL in the federal court.


This is a new matter, separate to his legal proceedings against the Demons & the club’s directors.


The allegations won’t be known until the case is listed with a judge. The league says it hasn’t been served or given any notice.

Is that RayGun on the bike?

 

[Beerfish]

Shit post.

Just have a read of the Fitzroy board to see how it feels to have your team taken from you.

You missed the point. The bid is dead. Nobody took anything from anyone because nothing happened.

Is it sculptured in Teflon ?

It’s currently soaking in the tears of Herald Sun editors to develop an elegant patina

'It's Carlton's F2 that is going to Hawthorn. Blues able to do it after getting another F2 from Brisbane. It's been accepted by the Hawks' - Riley Beveridge

Doing everthing they can to get Houston to Carlton

 

[Call Me Cake]

Hawthorn are dumb as rocks

 

[boncer34]

Hawthorn are dumb as rocks

Why

 

[TheGrizz]

Who was a very good premier if you happen to live in Metro Melbourne or ignore how his government handled hotel quarantine during the pandemic.

FTFY

 

[boncer34]

FTFY

I certainly enjoyed being locked down because there were covid cases 200km+ away.

 

[eth-dog]

FTFY

Nah. I never said he was perfect but how many election promises did he break? Infrastructure wise he's set up ambitious but needed upgrades to transport.

In ten years time his record will speak for itself.

 

[boncer34]

Where?

 

[eth-dog]

Where?

Mostly within Melbourne

 

[TheGrizz]

Nah. I never said he was perfect but how many election promises did he break?

You mean other than promises about the SEC and hosting the common wealth games (a key promise in his regional campaign)?
I mean that only cost us $2bn to back out of, so no biggie.

Infrastructure wise he's set up ambitious but needed upgrades to transport.

Yeah its great if you live in inner Melbourne except that's its overdue, projected to go $55bn over budget currently and wracked with controversy with the CFMEU?

Ambitious is one word for it.

In ten years time his record will speak for itself.

Yep, we are in $50bn more debt than any other Australian state (130bn) in total. I have no doubt the effects of his time as premier will be accutely felt in 10 years, probably much longer.

 

[boncer34]

Ah.

SEC is advertising for a number of job vacancies atm. Crucial Infrastructure costs money and we had the lockdowns to save people’s lives

Okay, you disagree with me. Also, correct me if I'm wrong but wasn't that decision abandoned when Allen took over?

I think he was a very good premier. He had his flaws. Find me a Premier who's record is perfect?

 

[boncer34]

Purely out of interest.

If the covid outbreak had been localised to Mildura do you think Melbourne would've been locked down?

Yes. She is going to get the blame.

Very clever by Dan to bail before it blew up.

 

[Old Campaigner]

Dan was pretty good. Not perfect and the people who still stan for him are ****ed in the head but the alternative was Matthew Guy and his merry band of culture warriors so it’s no surprise Dan was able to romp it in

Regional infrastructure still sucks but there’s nothing to be gained electorally for either party because folk out here vote Nats regardless so why would anyone spend money here that could go to pork barrelling some marginal seats

 

[TheGrizz]

Okay, you disagree with me. Also, correct me if I'm wrong but wasn't that decision abandoned when Allen took over?

So....they broke the promise?

I think he was a very good premier. He had his flaws. Find me a Premier who's record is perfect?

'No one is perfect' is a cop out.

We should expect more from our politicians than that, and I don't know when we just accepted the medium and long term economic future of us and our kids being thrown to the wall cause a guy had 'flaws'.

 

[TheGreatBarryB]

Purely out of interest.

If the covid outbreak had been localised to Mildura do you think Melbourne would've been locked down?

Well if a deadly worldwide pandemic broke out in Midura there would’ve have been army trucks helping move corpses like in Bergamo Italy and other places that were hit first. We may also have lost over 300 medical staff like they did. So yes eventually Melb would’ve been locked down as well

It's weird because Hawthorne where expected to use #14 for Barass and then WCE use that pick for Baker.


So maybe Baker and Shai to heave-ho?

It's looking that way - multiple deal affected by this. Can't imagine West Coast would be too pleased.

I didn't mention anything about it breaking out here first or it being anything like Italy's.

If covid had happened exactly the same in Vic but in Mildura instead of Melbourne would Melbourne have been shut-down? If say there were 300 cases in Mildura, and 0 in Melbourne?
