Re: Michael Talia

I'm watching Godfather Pt 2. It seems the inspiration for this saga was taken from this 3 minute scene almost entirely:

Re: Michael Talia

Does anyone have good photoshop skills? We really need a poster of an AFL remake of the Jim Carrey classic movie Liar Liar with the Australian star Kyle 'It was me' Cheney cast in the starring role. An AFL Integrity Unit production

I gave it a crack (however I thought MT needed centre stage):

Edit: Had to make it ridiculously small as it would only let me upload a 40kb or so file. Looked in settings at my attachment section and there are no other files there (aside this one at around 40kb) but in total says there is 197kb and the storage is nearly at capacity. Is this normal?

Love your work. This needs exposure. I'm sending it to AFL headquarters and 4 Corners for starters.

Re: Michael Talia

The indictment here is that I'm not even annoyed with the farcical outcome, it's as we all expected it would be.

Unfortunately, there isn't anything that can be done because we simply don't have a strong enough position in the competition - we just have to smile for the camera and cop it. If it involved a player placing a $5 bet, or Collingwood were the impacted club, I'm sure the investigation would have been more thorough...

You are welcome to use it. I posted it to the WB forum on facebook but it was promptly removed (which I thought was a bit over precious).

It's interesting all stakeholders still have differing perspectives on how the outcome needs to be presented, and that it's likely any release will be delayed until after the draft.

It tells me the manufactured outcome doesn't sit well.

Re: Michael Talia

I've noticed through social media that Michael is still well liked by our current listed players even after what he did. Now it makes me wonder have we actually overreacted with this? If I was a player on that team in the EF I'd want to punch him in the mouth for it but most of our players don't seem to be phased by what has happened. They either don't care about it which is disappointing or we, the club have overreacted which is also disappointing.

It's all over now anyway but it's interesting seeing all these little things on social media.

I saw Bob Murphy on 360 and he didn't look all that relaxed about it,

I think there is a trend for younger people to forgive mates. I'll gauge this on how the likes of Murphy and M.Boyd treat him at the end of the game.

Maybe it is a generational thing. I'd be fuming if I was one of the players in that team. Doubt I'd be on talking terms for an extremely long time. I still can't help but feel a little disappointed in some of our players being so causal about it.

Re: Michael Talia

I think as an 18-24 year old I put up with poorer behaviour from people I associated with compared to what I was prepared to put up with as a 24-30 year old, and what I am as a 30-36 year old.

Don't read too much into it.

Re: Michael Talia

The Dogs players also don't know Cheney...they do know Talia. So unlike Bevo, they are probably more inclined to trust Talia.

Re: Michael Talia

Great to see someone from the Adelaide media put that article together. A fairly concise summary of the issues at hand. Hopefully some more investigative journalism to come - especially querying the nonsense of negotiated findings and justice.

If Rucci takes this up then Adelaide may as well plead guilty now and Michael and Daniel get ready for the poop to hit the fan big time. Rucci doesn't take a back step and he hates the AFL. If I were the integrity unit I would be scared. Very, very scared.

This is about to get real.
