AFL Integrity Department - clear lack on integrity on their behalf in this instance!


Wow, BOOM!!!!!, the fallout will be very interesting to see.

Side note, I am hearing rumours about some of the things that went on in their camp; if true (big if) it is truly sick and disgusting. The AFL could easily slap them with an integrity investigation for the camp.

I wonder what Gibbs in thinking :banghead:

Please please let it be Adelaide.

They think they're going to manufacture pick swaps to get all of Lukosious, Rozee and Rankine (by Rankine telling the clubs he only wants to go to Adelaide apparently).

Would be delicious if they are banned from the 2018 draft, or even the first round.

The AFL integrity officer handling the investigation is also currently dealing with other Qld based issues, re MA.

Interesting that an AFL integrity officer who focuses on Qld based issues is investigating possible SA draft tampering....

Looking forward to the media running with this one.

Unrelated issues.

Same integrity officer.

Something to do with an alleged stoush with Plugger’s brother at a junior footy final?

Btw... should we take on alex johnston? We could have our very own sea- biscuit. He'd be great value around the club I reckon whilst rehabbing...and hey...nothing to lose really.

I doubt we’ll get anything near what some are predicting (would be nice but), and I’d recommend everyone follow the same mindset.

That way your sanity is retained if it doesn’t happen, and it’s even better if it does.

The melts alone would provide endless entertainment, but I digress.

If we’re hanging our hat on “they can’t help GC and not help us” we need to remember they’re about to lose both of their captains, who are also their best players, for no return.

We had a @#$%&! diabolical year but the foundation is there, and despite the moronic peddlings of da meedya, many know this. We may have finished with 2 (?) less wins, but our situation isn’t as dire (yet) as theirs. Despite our results we’re quite stable and united, while they’re in deep deep shit.

It’s for this reason we should assume that they’ll get top compo/PP and we’ll get much less of a leg up (if at all). Unless a deal is manufactured by the AFL to help us get one of our targets and then we STFU and go away.

Happy to be wrong, but expecting less now will be better in the long run either way.

Will we get an early round PP, or mid round PP?

I’m not terribly fussed, but just for shits and giggles I would love us to get an early round PP.

Everyone hates us anyway, may as well give them something more to hate on.
