TALIA INVESTIGATION ????

[BRISWAN]

Has there been any outcome to this matter, or am I living under a rock ?

[jetts32]

There's been an investigation?!?

[annew]

Yeah what a load of rubbish. An investigation into what one brother said to another brother when there are drones and so much football analysing from everyone there could not possible be any secrets. Bulldogs coach is a sook.

[jetts32]

Oh that haha. I thought we were talking something more serious.

[Dosser]

Yeah. When i first read the title i thought we were talking about some medical procedure.

[Mel_C]

I read this week that the investigation is complete but haven't heard anything since. Surely the AFL wouldn't punish us again and suspend him ??

[Primmy]

Well they haven't gone after the other brother, so;.... storm, teacup, slow news month....

If it turns out to be totally unfounded, it's a dreadful slur for a couple of young fellas to live with.

and give the opposition supporters someone else to boo.

[Primmy]

and someone else for us to champion BIG time....!!! We have had practice. We are very very good at it.

[BRISWAN]

The AFL have stated that they will take as much time as possible to complete their investigation

So this bee in a bottle keeps buzzing

Now that he is at the Swans I guess the AFL have greater incentive to dig deeper.

Exactly my thoughts. We know from recent history that the AFL no longer go out of their way to do us any favours. If he'd ended up at the Hawks or Pies it would all be done and dusted and he'd have been cleared of any wrongdoing.....

Exactly. The 'Big Boys' of the AFL get everything they want by clicking their fingers. I was looking at the first game against Hawks from this year. Roughead downs Shaw behind play, no suspension. If he had done that in 1980's, even though the play was rougher, he would have got 6 matches. A behind play incident in those days was seen as a cowards act. As far as I'm concerned it still is. The player he hit had no idea it was going to happen, it was a king hit. The AFL have let Hawks get away with thuggish behaviour in a game the AFL purport they are trying to keep clean. Sorry but punches in packs, head butts and behind play incidents do not constitute cleaning the game up.

As to Talia, they will go out of their way to hurt us over it even though we were not involved. Gillon is a big anti-Swan (we all know Ciggy is God).

There are a few long bows being drawn here....

Sounds like the suspected 'incident' warrants at least some investigation, and if we certainly would have been well aware of the possibility of this occurring when we signed him.
