    Re: Melbourne FC. Tanks for the memories.

    What are the chances of an outcome re the Dees prior to the ND? Not much time left.

    The AFL could forward sanctions (losing this years picks and next year's early picks = fine) and say to the Dees accept it and keep Hogan, OR fight it and we withdraw our offer (you'll lose Hogan too)

    That might resolve it quicker?
    The fight is here; I need ammunition, not a ride.

      My understanding is that the AFL will release something on the 19th of November regarding both Melbourne and Adelaide.

      Does somebody else recall reading something like this?

        St.Kilda or Adelaide?

        The 19th is when the AFL commission meet. Draft is on the 22nd. I cannot see the AFL stripping Crows or Demons of draft picks for this national draft.

          I believe that to be true. The perplexing problem for the AFL is that they don't really want to punish Melbourne because it will open a bigger can of worms but they can't not address it.

          I don't think they will do anything to them this year.

            Ahh yes correct, Melbourne and Adelaide my mistake.

            I wish that they would lose picks this year but its looking unlikely.

              I think Adelaide will, I'm not so sure about Melbourne.
