At last the voice of reason - Rohan. This link is now on The Age site and the bullshi-te article I referred to in the previous post does not appear as a link on their site but is still accessible by the URL.
Surely those two must have been dragged over the coals for having a link to their own email addresses with the question "Do you know more email Richard or Nick". Clearly an invitation for every man and his dog to spew forth whatever vitriol and false allegation they see fit.
Wow, reading that was like watching an episode of Media Watch. Outstanding! That is far too good not to send in somewhere to be published.
Saladin has given me all the reasons why I haven't bought a newspaper in 7 years. I just gave up on it because it is "full of shit" and "sensationalist slime". But everything Saladin has said is 100% spot on.
Ahhh,me old mate Kim Hagdorn.He just loves talking to me on a Sunday Morning with BOBBY MAUMILL!
As for PATRICK SMITH and CAROLINE WILSON,sorry,but I believe them to be FAR BETTER than what we have to Put up with over here.And that's just on an AFL Level.The Media in General are Hopeless in WA.WEST COAST and to a lesser extent FREMANTLE(Still learning the tricks of the trade from the Eagles)only have to say MEDIA RELEASE,JUMP!And the reporters(HACKS as MARTIN DI STASIO would say)would say "How high?!"
Having said that,I do feel that CARO and PATRICK are possibly putting their own Repuatations on the line here.
Yeah F111 just saw that. What the f-ck is the matter with the people there. The headline screams EXCLUSIVE "Police quizzed star on his payments". Now doesn't that sound like Hird has done something terribly wrong BUT in fact police 'quizzed' Hird and a number of other players so as to prove Charter did not have an income of $500,000 from his role in offering dietary advice. So Hird and the other players named were going to be witnesses in prosecuting this bloke. There in the intimation that Hird has done something wrong when he clearly has not. I give up and I will be ringing the editor tomorrow and plead for some common sense to prevail otherwise I am cancelling my subscription.

Was the story today (that Hird was listed as a prosecution witness in a 2004 case) the massive story (reported in here) developed by the Age's police affairs reporters that was going to blow open the EFC....
Really?
How many times can the media flog the horse before they notice that certain Romanians are busy putting the beast into mincers to make French export grade lasagne?
Medical sources aware of the arrangement have alleged that one of the external doctors involved may have written prescriptions for the players to be issued with supplements.
f****** pissa

In frustration I rang The Age to talk to someone responsible for the stories appearing online. The bloke I spoke to basically said they are reporting the allegations and it was newsworthy to do so. I said there wasnt must substance to much of the crap we've been subjected to and offered my opinion that Wilson has an anti Essendon agenda. I called for more balance and more from the voice of reason Rohan Connolly. I demanded that The Age make a huge apology when we are cleared. He said everything they are running is being checked by their legal department. That is why we keep seeing these phrases like "it is alleged" and "sources say" etc.
They are muck raking in my opinion and they wont relent. WE need to be exonerated as this thing is becoming festering sore.

Haha...what a load of f****** horse shit! That is the biggest and most gutless phrase they could ever use. It is so easy and simple to claim "sources say" without ever disclosing them. Here, I'll show you;
"Sources say Caroline Wilson was giving oral sex to a donkey while Patrick Smith provided the golden shower. It is alleged that Caroline ingested these fluids willfully and was seen begging for more"
