Very interesting that Vlad uses Dillon's name.. that Dillon assessed there being enough evidence, Dillon thought there was enough for charges, Dillon created the charges... my prediction that Vlad would cut and run when this turned ugly starting to look a little more likely.
So we are going to call in the club presidents and brief them on a CONFIDENTIAL investigation.. tell them OUR side of the story and that is somehow OK? Does EFC have an EQUAL chance to respond during this 'special' meeting.. do we have OUR general counsel coming in to brief the club presidents on OUR case and OUR position?
It's like bringing in the 'jury' two weeks before the hearing and outline the prosecutions case... unbelievable really.
I hope Little does the 'ring around' tonight and gets enough presidents to commit to a spill of the executive. Disgraceful and just getting worse. The AFL seems to want to bring the entire comp down to save face.. ugly.
Ok. Where do I apply for your job?

Lucky we are encouraged to vent here hey!
Joined todayLooking at the charge sheet, I am pretty disappointed at what has happened at our club to be honest, especially after reading Reid's email. To me, individuals are never bigger than the club and it is sad to see some of our staff have conducted themselves the way they have.
It seems like the environment at the club was not a safe place at the time for our players and the health of the players is much more important than winning a flag. A flag is only temporary. The health of the players however could be permanent for them. As a fan, yes I would like for the club to win a flag, but not through taking substances that are border line or risking the health of the players.
I am sorry to say this, but I think Hird should do the right thing and stand down. The image of our club is getting dragged through the mud and an individual is not bigger than the club, even if he was one of the best players in the history of our club.
I remained objective throughout this whole saga. It is pretty obvious now that some of our staff screwed up, including Hird.
i still don't believe that we should punish the players by stripping our premiership points, but fine the club and strip us from draft picks. Then move on until ASADA completed the investigation.
Move on from this saga. Really drained our players and supporters.
God I hope the players muster up incredible rage and smash the **** out of Carlshit this Saturday
Close! Admin gave us laptops because they were tired of replacing broom handles, and didn't approve of what some chose to do with those broom handles. Allegedly.
Who does Dillon report to?In this instance he is only trying to paint a picture that somebody impartial to the investigation has examined it and laid the charges.
Who does Dillon report to?
Basically no phone or internet all day so just catching up on all the news.
Isn't it interesting after AFL 360 last night which put the spotlight firmly onto the AFL, they come out and release the charges the very next day?
Nice work AFL you toss bags.
Bring on the war. This is SPARTAAAA!!!
