Re: Michael Talia

I have complete faith in Bevo on this. Therefore the entire clubs handling of it.

I remember charging two persons for alleged theft/burglary. They were allegedly seen in the shed by three witnesses in a house. I arrested them out the front and located items allegedly stolen nearby. This was the easiest case. A Magistrate hunted down a reason to find not guilty and every single person was shocked, lawyers, police, alleged theives included. I guess my point is this, a determination or finding doesn't make the truth of a matter any different, nor can it make factual events change. It's merely an opinion of which any person can feel free to read into. Whatever the AFL or Caro says is actually inconsequential to our club to what really happened as fact or truth. We all move on knowing what the truth and facts are, and the AFL loses even more credibility with a non finding. So be it.

Re: Michael Talia

I take your point and I guess it would be ok to be philosophical about the duplicity of the AFL if it wasn't that very trait that seems to disadvantage our club repeatedly.

True. So true. I'm just thinking in isolation on this. Bevo is completely satisfied this happened and I accept this as the facts and truth when considered against everything else too. Truth, fact, actuality and a mature, responsible and moral response. In this instance I'm comforted more by this with our club than an organisation that is bankrupt of maturity, responsibility and morality that wilfully ignores truth, fact and actuality.

I guess the bright side is it was Talia. Imagine if it was someone really good

And clearly he's dumb for many reasons. Bevo last night was talking about the complexity of many gameplans he has for the boys In a general sense and the critiques on Fox Footy this year on Tahleeya show he clearly was unable to understand what all our other players could understand. He's dumbness climaxing with this. He's not that great as you say, but if Sydney move to complex zoning defences then Talia offers less for them in such a set up than an inanimate carbon rod.

As bad as this situation is I won't hear a bad word about the rod. Too far.

Re: Michael Talia

TBH...I'm over the whole thing and ready to focus on our bright future. Just disappointed that someone with a family tie to the club has departed in less than ideal circumstances.

Former Bulldog Michael Talia relieved to be cleared by AFL investigation

Former Western Bulldogs defender Michael Talia is a relieved man after the AFL cleared him of leaking sensitive information from the club, but says he always knew he had not done anything wrong.

Talia left the Bulldogs for Sydney following the club's elimination-final loss to Adelaide in September, and the Footscray-based side asked the AFL to investigate allegations that Talia leaked information to his brother Daniel, who plays for the Crows.

The league's integrity unit cleared Talia of any wrongdoing on Wednesday, following a lengthy investigation.

"I was always confident I hadn't done anything wrong," Talia told News Corp Australia.

"I've adamantly denied any wrongdoing the whole time.

"The investigation came to that conclusion as well. It's a massive relief it's over and now I can look forward to pre-season training."

Revelations of the leak came about after Adelaide defender Kyle Cheney made a numerous remarks suggesting sensitive information had been shared between the brothers.

Cheney has been issued an official warning from the AFL for the comments, however Talia also spoke in support of the 26-year-old.

"I've spoken to Daniel about Kyle and he told me he's a really good kid," Michael Talia said.

Re: Michael Talia


ADELAIDE defender Kyle Cheney phoned Western Bulldogs coach Luke Beveridge four days after the clubs’ elimination final on September 12 to discuss the alleged leaking of “game-sensitive” information by the Talia brothers.

The revelation that it was Cheney, not Beveridge, that initiated contact was not included in the AFL’s summary of findings into the Talia investigation released on Wednesday.

Two days after they reach a conclusion and already it stinks even worse.

Re: Michael Talia

Right. So Cheney rang Beveridge to share the 'joke', did he? Makes perfect sense… not.
