Afl announcement at 10 oclock

Out damned spot! Out I say.1,2  Why then? Tis time to do it.  Hell is murky!

The Scottish play.  Demetriou does have a lot of blood on his hands.

It was interesting to hear both Vlad and MF both emphasis the words 'good governance'.  Going to be the new corner stone words across the league.

So basically out of this whole saga only one person lost his job.

 

Good effort Vlad, don't let the door hit your ■■■■.

I wonder if he will end up serving out the year, or if after a month or 2 he'll decide there's no need to be around any longer.

 

I guess he was feeling a push, so I suppose agreeing to resign at the end of the year will keep the dogs at bay until then.

 

I wonder how our 'saga' will pay out in the media. If we get pinged or we don't he will still have a lot to answer for (if we do then it's bad for the game, if we don't then he's mismanaged the whole thing).

 

If he thought he was going to get a lot of hard questions then you think he would bail asap, then again he's probably got about 10 million reasons to stay on until September.

Something that will make me laugh derisively every time I hear them trot it out.
Wonder if Fitzpatrick will be the major share holder in the new stadium being constructed? There's good governance for him. He can sit on the board for that and ANZ stadium as well as use his good governance to manipulate his conflict of interests at the AFL.

Vlad has his sights set on the Ukraine situation....may be a role for him over that way pretty soon.

Step aside John Kerry,  Captain Good Governance is on his way.

Just heard from an sms on sen the in's and outs for 2015

 

Out : Vlad

 

In:  Hird

 

The irony!

Ukraine versus Russia. March 12, Entry into Sevastopol
 
Russia.  U Klentasov   1 vote
 
Ukraine. I Tenkuhy  2 votes 
 
Russia.  V  (long pause)  Patinovsky  3 votes.

Reckon that is about as good as it will get for Andy D - stage managed, soft questions, glowing achievemts listed, emotional. By years end and if some chickens come home to roost it should be more ignominious and befitting his legacy re. integrity of the game.

did anyone ask either of those two farksticks whether they were concerned that more confidential info was leaked to the papers re the players names?  No?  how surprising.  The HS / News Limited  can't ask because they ran the story, Fairfax can't ask because they've had a direct line to AFL house all the farking way through.   absolute joke, from top to bottom.

"I never injected anyone" Andy D would have told us about the things he had done which were far worse than injections, but he only had an hour to speak. There's only so much facile crap you can fit into such a tight time slot, and he had a lot to get through.

Yeah. Nah.  

 

When he is no longer reigining over the kingdom of VLADISTAN, and can no longer control the media, there will be nothing to stop the hard questions flowing...his poor and corrupt management will be laid bare.

 

What a terrible bit of work.

 

I hear the bubbly popping over in France.

PS: BLITZ got it wrong, this was supposed to have happened by end of FEB. Couple of days late...

Robbo and AD meet, Robbo back in the good books with AFL

Robbo runs story naming the players

AD resigns two days later

 

Am I reading too much into it? Was this Vlads parting shot?

I don't see it being a good win if Gillon Mclachlan (aka Vlads puppet) gets the job....I reckon hes worse!

LOL at trolling BB by not resigning Friday. I imagine someone’s already said it, but:

Finish your bad governance and ■■■■ off.

The truth needs to be revealed re the AFLs management of the league over 2013 and obviously this would be too hard for AD to take. (I'd like to know when this is going to happen and which journalist is going to take up the pursuit.)

 

I'm glad he's gone. He really has done nothing extraordinary for the game. Wow - expansion - 2 new clubs! Seriously, anyone else could've done the same thing and it was not rocket science. Wow - lets advance respect for women and embrace multiculturalism (which I am all for both - very important!). For me, society was and continues to change in this area - he is not groundbreaking or a pioneer but simply following suit (and I believe Kevin Sheedy can take more credit for advancement in multiculturalism in the AFL than AD).

 

So where are we with AD - a botched tribunal process, ridiculous knee jerk reactions and rule changes to an evolving game, a butchered governance of tanking, monitoring performance enhancing drugs (the AFL have no clue), Us in 2013. I'm sure there's more.

 

But sadly the AFL think they are a success as they have made ground on the NRL - which is a wrong, wrong, wrong measurement of success!! The NRL are a disgrace of an organisation who will eventually kill the sport in all but 2 states. They are so backwards in their thinking that they're stars leave to play other codes, and apart from their finals series and State of Origin, they are largely insignificant.

Fitting that the announcement comes on the day of our season launch. Fark Vlad & Fark Carlton.

MACBETH!

 

Aahhhhh. Hot potato, orchestra stalls, Puck will make amends!
