AlexRRR Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 Dare say there are a few bored Aussie expats waiting for kick off....the properganda mill is working over time at Deeland, Simon says "we are working on winning finals, but we won't focus on winning finals at this stage, because if we do that now we won't get there then" something like that, talking to the converted of course, hanging on every word but we all know the Demons have missed the bus, that window is like a louver not a sliding one, Ben Brown cant fit through, thanks once again Fj for supplying our Premiership full forward for a song and a half, yes the window is really tight now, May better back up his big mouth in the new season and give up the piss for the year, think if were doing anything other than making up numbers in the bottom half of the 8 we are doing really well.... No wild predictions this year, I got use to winning so loosing got hard to take, now we are back to normal any win is a great win... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will27 Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 What's going on in Melbourne land Uncle Alex? Sounds like West Coast circa 2006. AFL 2024: Melbourne footballer Joel Smith accused of cocaine trafficking The failed drugs test probe into Melbourne’s Joel Smith has taken a dramatic turn, with anti-doping investigators accusing the Demon of cocaine trafficking. See how the AFL responded. Anti-doping investigators have accused Melbourne footballer Joel Smith of cocaine trafficking in a dramatic escalation of his failed drugs test probe. After reviewing his phone, Sport Integrity Australia officials have uncovered multiple text messages sent by Smith referencing cocaine. In one message to Demons teammates last year, he offered them a quantity of the drug, it is alleged. This masthead has not confirmed how many Melbourne players the SMS was sent to, or the amount of cocaine he offered. SIA has asserted to Smith that he has violated several anti-doping rules and asked him to respond by mid-March, before it delivers a finding. The league is understood to be awaiting the outcome of the SIA probe, with the case potentially going to an AFL Anti-Doping Tribunal. Allegations and evidence could also be referred to police. The AFL put out a statement on Tuesday, after the Herald Sun revealed the bombshell development. “The AFL confirms that further Anti-Doping Rule Violations (ADRVs) have been asserted against Joel Smith of the Melbourne Football Club under the Australian Football Anti-Doping Code,” the statement said. “Sport Integrity Australia (SIA) has notified Smith that three ADRVs for “Trafficking or Attempted Trafficking” of Cocaine to third parties are asserted against him. Under the Code, Trafficking in an anti-doping context is relevantly defined to be ‘Selling, giving, transporting, sending, delivering or distributing a Prohibited Substance, by an Athlete ... to any third party’...” Smith would continue to be provisionally suspended pending the finalisation of the case, the AFL said. “Under the Code, the new asserted ADRVs will be further investigated by SIA and these matters may ultimately be heard by an AFL Anti-Doping Tribunal in the coming months,” it said. Smith, 27, was already facing a suspension of two years after testing positive to cocaine on a game day late last season. He was initially hoping for a ban of three months after his positive urine sample was collected when the Demons defeated Hawthorn by 27 points at the MCG in round 23. But the ramifications for Smith could now be much more serious, with a potential four-year ban mooted, while Melbourne also faces questions. Smith’s management and legal teams declined to comment. A SIA spokesman said the agency would not comment on “operational matters”. One source close to the probe said Smith should not be “scapegoated” over what they asserted was a wider club issue. “It looks like they are planning to hang Joel out to dry for behaviour that is commonplace at Melbourne,” the source said. “It is not unusual for a group of young men who party together to share drugs. Joel might be foolish but he’s hardly Tony Mokbel. “The club should be taking responsibility for what is happening to Joel instead of blaming him in order to cover up a much wider problem. Joel is not a bad apple in a barrel of clean ones – the whole joint is rotten.” The latest of several off-field blows to Melbourne comes more than three years after former president Glen Bartlett raised concerns with the club board about its culture. Crisis talks were held with AFL commission chairman Richard Goyder and ex-league boss Gillon McLachlan, but Bartlett was forced out by the board in April 2021. The club also showed its long-time doctor Zeeshan Arain the door after he raised concerns. Demons chief executive Gary Pert recently claimed the club’s culture was “the best I’ve seen in 40 years”. His comment came amid significant concerns about Smith’s positive test and the behaviour of teammate Clayton Oliver. Star midfielder Oliver recently avoided a criminal conviction after being caught driving while his licence was suspended. A court heard he had been suspended after being hospitalised for a seizure, but he had not opened the letter to inform him. In December, Oliver’s sudden departure from a pre-season camp in Lorne led to a long absence from the club given as being for personal reasons. The four-time best-and-fairest winner returned only three weeks ago. Smith, the son of Dees high-flyer Shaun Smith, has played 42 games since he was signed as a rookie in 2016.

Yes brother WILL......them plastic red and dark blue wheelie bin wheels are scraping along the pot holed Pattaya streets..... Not only did we see North end the illustrious career of that native Australian for misdemeanours we and Fj won't talk about, Angus bites the dust too, that's a big big big big hole to fill...Smith the dick's days as a professional cocaine wooops I mean football player are over, caught not once caught at least twice.....offering said substances to said unknowns at the club, they kept him on the list through 7 long years of injuries they thought a lot of the guy and was starting to show it towards the end of the year....you got to ask what he has between the ears and its obviously some kinda spongy material... Well this is a good time to take the Eagles as my second team......as it probable the 70s are returning, now Goodwin did impress me last year, I did think he coached well...the poor guy has got a mountain in front go him now...if I where him id be taken the first coaching job offered..... Ive taken a vow to try and stay positive this year.....ummm....add Olie........now if we were Brisbane or Collingwood you could pencil in a flag.... Angus and Smith out forever allows some creative moves and I recon Simon will give a few of them new guns the chance we did draft a goal kicking mid and a mid with the first two picks... Anyway I got my new streaming service up and running....looking forward to the start of the season and watching the Eagles and Harley shaking the tree.... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

High draft pick with a heap of games pumped into him with no return. Would not surprise me if Essendon pick him up or later with Tassie. Certainly the right decision to let him go,Clarko doesn't need the publicity or the club. On a brighter note,looking forward to LDU putting a full season together,real Brownlow chance. Backline and ruck stocks looking fragile but the game is evolving with more mids playing further back down the field.
