Is that the ABC of News Limited?didick wrote:I think they deliberately made a decision to delay their response. It's put the issue and their do-gooding back on the top few stories on the abc news website again.

The whole issue blew up again last night on the Q and A show, where Steve Price, whom I basically loathe, came out swinging in defence of eddie, and ended up in one hell of a row with a fellow pannelist over eddie. It was very unedifying to watch, all hell broke loose, and heres me thinking he whole issue was done and dusted. sigh.

With friends like Steve Price who needs enemies. Just to repeat for the sake of the Q & A audience member who's sister is a victim of family violence, there was no connection whatsoever to the friendly banter made by Eddie and family violence. Being dunked into an ice bath for charity is different to being drowned into an ice bath and the comment about holding her head down wasn't even attributable to Eddie. But once politicians get involved and blow it up out of all proportion to the actual incident, it gets twisted into something else. These are the same politicians who on both sides of parliament have been advocated for electronic voting to speed up election results, yet the electoral commission says, all the politicians have to do is legislate for electronic voting and we would have electronic voting. Steve Price's comments towards the feminist on the Q & A panel who supports victims of family violence, was paternalistic and vulgar, but he gets away with it, and Eddie gets crucified for making a joke. Go figure.Piesnchess wrote:The whole issue blew up again last night on the Q and A show, where Steve Price, whom I basically loathe, came out swinging in defence of eddie, and ended up in one hell of a row with a fellow pannelist over eddie.

I think he must have rocks in his head to come out with this rubbish (even if it is true):

& for those that stupidly think it is an ABC issue only:

Methinks the end is nigh for Eddie. I really don't want him to go out like this & he doesn't deserve to. Perhaps one gaffe too many.

Heard the story this morning, seems an odd thing to be raising at this stage of the game....
Caro predicts
On "Footy Classified" Caroline Wilson said that she would be "staggered" if Graeme Allan wasn't suspended for at least 3 months, and probably 6 months for the Whitfield drama.
She always looks for mud and it especially delights her if it's Collingwood.

At worst he will get a suspended sentence, at absolute worse.
She's guessing, she admitted it a few weeks back, that she is just guessing at the length, or type of suspension he will get.
If he get suspended, so does plenty of others at GWS, including Lambert (now at the Lions?) and Whitfield, the player involved.
In the end not much will come from this, they "dodged" a drug test that actually was never going to take place.
Basically with Caro my rule is, if she says something about Collingwood, think the opposite.

Collingwood give him the best possible defence resources in the land against the bloody AFL wankers.
He will get a suspended sentence because he hasn't (to my knowledge) got a long history of misdemeanours except for getting into a punch up with some Essenscum feral at the 1990 Grand Final win.

Don't confuse your current path with your final destination. Just because it's dark and stormy now doesn't meant that you aren't headed for glorious sunshine!

Re: Caro predicts
Don't you think what Gubby did was Grubby? I can't see how or why he should get away with hiding a player from drug testing. What Wilson says is very light in my opinion.Harrysz wrote:On "Footy Classified" Caroline Wilson said that she would be "staggered" if Graeme Allan wasn't suspended for at least 3 months, and probably 6 months for the Whitfield drama.

Re: Caro predicts
So when did Australia change their system to someone being being found guilty before any official Hearing results? Trial by media rules does it?
