KB sounds great by comparison.......

KB doesn't take himself as seriously as Whatley, but he can be just as insidious!People should start asking Whatley on air when his is opening his journalistic investigation into Geelong's BumberT era!
Re: Blues Brothers trip to the tribunal Reply #182 – May 17, 2018, 01:51:40 pm In news just in:Essendon player Jake Stringer may be charged with loitering, however the club are confident they can successfully defend any charge, particularly intent.

Re: Blues Brothers trip to the tribunal Reply #185 – May 17, 2018, 03:54:14 pm Charlie's case done and dusted....but they're going to hold the decision until Ed's is done and deliver both verdicts at the end.
Re: Blues Brothers trip to the tribunal Reply #186 – May 17, 2018, 03:55:21 pm We cannot really trust the AFL's ticker tape, it's paraphrasing both councils, but it feels like nobody wants Charlie done over.
Re: Blues Brothers trip to the tribunal Reply #187 – May 17, 2018, 04:02:45 pm Someone needs to ask Whately why they used to have a segment on 360 that was a skit show of Bomber T off his chops.
Re: Blues Brothers trip to the tribunal Reply #188 – May 17, 2018, 04:05:57 pm I've been on many similar tribunals (not in sport), and it strikes me as very odd that they don't render a verdict after each case? Why wait to give both verdicts at the end? I'm thinking the AFL wants to make a statement

Re: Blues Brothers trip to the tribunal Reply #190 – May 17, 2018, 04:31:24 pm One problem for the players is the change in the panel, Gleeson is presenting the AFL case, and he's old school legal along with Kellam and Green.I got the feeling that our club thinks Charlie has a chance to have the appeal dismissed, but that Ed will have the appeal upheld!
Re: Blues Brothers trip to the tribunal Reply #191 – May 17, 2018, 04:35:47 pm The AFL originally tried to get the cases heard together but that wasn't allowedThe joint announcement of the decision was probably a concession.
Re: Blues Brothers trip to the tribunal Reply #193 – May 17, 2018, 04:37:37 pm Charlie Curnow evidence clear saw umpire and spoke to him and had contact with him. But took place while he was trying to break up potential melee. Open to consider his actions as inadvertent. Cannot be said Tribunal decision was so unreasonable. Appeal dismissed.
Re: Blues Brothers trip to the tribunal Reply #194 – May 17, 2018, 04:37:59 pm Bet Ed gets a week, or has his fine increased.Might be a while! Last Edit: May 17, 2018, 04:39:46 pm by LP
