the footy show

Good job RFC  there is a lid on the place these days 

[gerkin greg]

Love the influence Cuzzy had on Chimp and Lids 

The Hairy Malaka "I'm sadly going for Richmond".

So 7 changes, star player suspended, club in crisis, and he still doesn't tip his team? LMFAO how much of a cock is this guy and how bad must his dees be travelling

First time I've watched the Footy Show (albeit for 20 mins) in 10 years 

Barrett on the Footy Show.

* Barrett started off with setting a "background" to the story. Martin and Connors were close to Cousins when he was at Richmond and there's a concern from some quarters that he's basically left his mark on them.

* There's people out there that say Martin was just as bad an influence on Connors as Connors was on Martin. So he's not all that innocent in this.

* Both met their club requirements on Sunday and Monday recovery.

* Went out Monday night and got back at 10pm at Connors' place in Thornbury. Partied to 2am with non-football friends. They then took sleeping pills to get to sleep. Only woken up when Wayne Campbell went around to Connors place and woke them up. Connors knew his time was up and when he met Hardwick it got so heated they both had to be restrained.

* The leadership group and senior management involved in the decision.

* Sam said at 2am you shouldn't need sleeping pills. Barrett said that question has been put to the club and no illicit drugs were involved.

* Everyone is looking for a smoking gun here. There's not one apart from what has been reported to happen Monday night. The Club would look silly if they haven't revealed all.

* Connors will be paid out. He won't speak until then.

Thornbury? What happened to Northcote?

Is Sccoter geographically challenge or are the bins just picked up by the same company

But I have to say I liked his comment about the "smoking gun" would have killed him to say it but if there aint no gun then there aint no gun

Did you cleanse your psyche WP after watching such a terrible show that lowers the standard of human existence, intelligence and social interaction?

* Connors will be paid out. He won't speak until then.

A pox on Connors. Whoever was restraining Hardwick should have been less effectual. Give him a slab and send him on his way.

How bad is it. I've only watched a little bit here and there this year. On Thursdays after I watch 360 on Fox, and either AFL League Teams on Fox or now Before the Game, I'm all footy'd out by 930 an no need to watch that crap 

[gerkin greg]

Connors knew his time was up and when he met Hardwick it got so heated they both had to be restrained.

Based on reports from the club, only 5 people could have witnessed that.

Connors, his manager, Hardwick, Gale, Cameron

Who leaked it to the media?

[Hellenic Tiger]

That's if it happened and if it did whose saying Connors didn't tell a former teammate who leaked it.

[gerkin greg]

well ben cousins was there doing ice in the corner but he swears he saw and heard nothing, just going about his business

i blame cleve hughes

Another delicious typo.

 

[Hes My Hero]

If it is true and was leaked.
And only 5 people would have been witness to it out of Connors, his manager, Hardwick, Gale, Cameron.
I would hope/think that it was his manager, trying to divert attention from player to club.

For those that missed it, here's a link to the audio of what Barrett said last night ...

Thornbury? What happened to Northcote?

The suburbs are next door to each other so we'll let him off on this one  .

Not sure those in thronbury would like to be confused with Northcote

Considering the gulf in house prices those in Preston would gladly be confused by either of the preceding suburbs mentioned.
