    I'd prefer partisan Federal politics to be left out of RWO discussions, especially when just parrotting party lines.

      Here's a little snippet from the AFL website today that further suggests a back room deal was made:

      Tippett had pleaded guilty, Galbally said, to speed up proceedings and allow him to get on with his football career.

      Asked if the AFL encouraged Tippett to plead guilty, Galbally said: "I'm not going to comment on anything in relation to that. There were private discussions that took place and as a result ? he made up his mind with all the very best advice that he was given."


      Maybe Emma Q will reveal all in due course.

            Not much to say just wanted to post number 2900.

            Hopefully all that has been said today will mean that KT ends up in red and white next week.

                I agree. I have no allegiance to any party and as a writer and an anti gutter journalism fighter I don't make judgements on whether a person has done something until they have been proven to do so. This is a footy forum not a political forum and I would rather keep my angst for the opposition not the members LOL.

                  There is an article in the SMH which says GWS have gone a bit cool on Tippett since the 11 match ban. I think they were cooling even before that. i think they couldn't pay his wages, fit him into cap etc without shedding players. His price won't be able to be met by any Melbourne club, suns are not interested nor are Lions (too expensive), Port Eagles & Dockers already know he won't live in Adelaide or Perth. Welcome Kurt.

                          You want stupid? Facebook page is now blathering with AFC twerps. The hate and vitriole makes me want to give KT a bit of a cuddle. I am not all that taken with him, but sheesh! Its too much.

                            I would hope that those who have commented on his intelligence, or lack thereof, have not only met him, but have got to know him to make calls like that.
                            We're talking about comparing the smarts of Teddy Richards and Jesse White....I don't think that it is a stretch to suggest that Teddy has got brains that most footballers don't....and further to suggest that that is one of, if not THE significant reason that he has been able to turn himself from an average/dropped footballer into an All Australian.

                              Gee, a bit of a sense of humour void in here of late ... don't be too concerned, on the other side of the coin, to this point, I don't think anyone has been particularly enamored with the budgie smugglers either ... it's more like a battle for the wooden spoon, that contest!
