Sometimes it pays to be patient

Ma Powell always said it was a virtue, patience

Have to say this morning after the events of the last 2 days I was despondent over this but this afternoon, so very upbeat I must say  :bow :bow :cheers :clapping

And BTW Chairman Little and Jimmy Hird to face the media at 4.15pm. Interesting one of the news sites (it's the HUN) had a photo of Jimmy coming out of his Toorak mansion in his EFC suit as opposed to club jacket emblazened with sponsors logos ...hmmmm....  ;D

Little talking shyte:


do not consider charges justified

assertions not supported evidence

time release no coincidence

a0d bla bla bla

afl PR attack

want the afl to reword charges - reach common ground - should the club guilt

we tried to prevent release of charge cheat

we never gave anyone banned drugs

afl want media headlines

afl belligerent

club had some short comings - we have changed many things in club

we will have to accept a afl penality

no player administered harmful prohibited substances - in-suffice evidence

no proof

afl try to call us drug cheats - i cannot and will not accept that like ALL Football FANS - I CANNOT accept that point of view

i call on mike Fitzpatrick to step in and take over, like the football public

lost total confidence with the afl

hird talking shyte


afl trial by media

 would dictate i could prefer to know in advance

doctor Reid letter to me in breach of due process

designed to damage my reputation

i wrote to afl last week - what bases of your case afl?

what you going to say? so i can get ready - afl yet to respond

i deny these charges

 contested when afl due process

afl running an agenda - afl not fair

my position is same as previous weeks

i will contest these charges

afl / vlad should excuse them self from case - conflict of interest

should be a public hearing

asada report interim

no player infractions

AFL IN BREACH OF THE LAW

due to interim report

afl remains silent about its knowledge

aod bla bla bla this is a major issue in whole saga

I HAVE BEEN DENIED NATURAL JUSTICE   :rollin :rollin :rollin

TODAY'S AMBUSH IS this

Ive just read the whole report.

Wow. They are stuffed. If they get off even if no illegal substances were given, the AFL has lost control of its integrity.

Little and Hird are missing the point in their press conference. Playing the victim. Not addressing the charges.

Hird bangs on all year about wanting it all public, now he is complaining that he was ambushed and wasnt given enough notice before making it public?

Not to mention saying the afl is conflicted and wants an independent hearing. Last I checked it was the afls responsibility to manage the game. So How are they conflicted? Who do they want to run the hearing? The NRL?

Its PR rubbish which just disillusions the majority of supporters, who now dont just want the afl to throw the book, but make them choke on it

Well today at least Jimmy proved he has been consistent. it's all about him and no one else  :whistle

I think he suffers from PLOM disease  ;D

Not missing it.

It's all they have to harp about proving they're really BUSTED!!

LMAO@ "Ambushed" - who does he think he is, Sadam Hussein?
