Agree....got carried away with his position of power too as a media commentator and because he has had a bit of respect in the industry a few people listen to him.

Yes he seems to have assumed a regal air now on SEN - presiding grandiosely over the program.  ::)

KB sounds great by comparison....... :))
Reality always wins in the end.

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!

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.

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.

We cannot really trust the AFL's ticker tape, it's paraphrasing both councils, but it feels like nobody wants Charlie done over.

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.

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

Peculiar, unless they knew the results from the get-go... ::)

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!

The AFL originally tried to get the cases heard together but that wasn't allowed

The joint announcement of the decision was probably a concession.

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.

Bet Ed gets a week, or has his fine increased.

Might be a while!
