no not the sacked four.
The 14-10 = 4
Remember Hooper? That columnist that says he has got a copy of the ASADA evidence? Do a Search & you will find he keeps talking about how 14 players will be stood down.
"i have seen the evidence & it is damning. 14 players will be stood down"
He then goes on to say how the 14 have been offered early plea bargains by ASADA.
Well lucky 4 never took the early plea bargains ey? seems they are in the "clear".
So that is 4 victories to the Sharks. James Hooper ZERO, just like his credibility

Not to forget smearing Australia as a nation of drug cheats and match fixers on the international stage.

I've been out and about tonight and haven't caught up with news. Do we now believe things are tipping in our favour?

That would be speculation because all we know from press releases its acc uncovered what they term as 100 pieces of information comprised of phone taps and coerced interviews.

Who knows what's in that, and how reliable coerced information is.

Who knows. Earlier today it was ASADA was going to interview 1 player a day 3 days a week... Now it is off and Wade is a bad guy for not wearing a suit. Might get 2 years for it. :lol: wait :eek:

Someone was always going to say it. I disagree thought he should have presented better even if innocent and not obliged to. Whats next boardies? Granted won't matter to ASADA but already caused plenty of comment. People still remember the Dogs doing the same after Coffs incident. Better when you have the moral high ground , we don't. Most will disagree with me and bag me for being old fashioned. Vote on gay marriage later this year?

Since the mannah story I have not clicked on any telecrap link and my life is better for it. Just sayin.

And yeah webby, disagree. To wear a suit adds credibility to this clusterf**k. Treat it with the contempt it deserves, shoulda come in a lab coat.

Hooper is a f**ken c**k head who doesn't belong anywhere (same as General Petraeus - too politician for the soldiers, but too soldier for the politicians - so he belongs nowhere).

Hooper is the same - too footy player for the journos, but too journo for the footy players.

He's a f**ken lost merkin lol

I take your point but would get no solace if we are guilty but get off due to ASADA incompetence. I dont see us as the innocent victims. I want drugs cheats out of footy even if they play for us.

Clusterf**k maybe. But we are right in the middle of it , like it or not. Doubt a lab coat is the answer any more than a suit. I would put money on us suffering drug bans. That worries me. Especially if the 2 best of the 10 are found guilty. We could have handled it better for sure. The same posters who stick up for Pom and Stapo probably think we are guilt free or dont care as long as not proved guilty.

Plenty of crims get off. Just hope we are PROVED innocent , not escape on a technicality.

Don't want to be remembered as scumbags who got off. We may have an opportunity to start with new management and a new roster. Not the end of the world.

Agree, should have worn the club suit. f**k they wear it to the footy. It says far more about you than it does about the proceedings. Once again we look stoopid (cant f**king help ourselves). Look at the way James Herd walked into his interviews with Authority and stature. Wadey looked like he'd been carving the barrels off Wanda 1 hour before. I hope Reefy is right in that it was a planned move. I'm guessing the next person that attends will look like Fred Astaire if Noycey has a say.

Don't care what he wore.
It was at an off site location.
He was there representing Wade Graham, not Cronulla Sharks.
ASADA have not shown 1 ounce of respect to sporting codes, players or fans.
Darkest day in sport, all codes, 150 athletes, organized crime, etc.
All propaganda until they produce some evidence.

Perception is reality though Deej. The reports aren't about Wade Graham from 25 Bumblef**k Street Snot Acres, it's all about Cronulla Player Wade Graham. Apart from that the process is being brokered through the club via Noycey now. You cant separate this from the club. Anyway just my thoughts. If we are going to be a serious professional football organisation then we should start acting like one in my view. We've wasted another opportunity to start looking like we mean business and we aren't the juan farkall little brother broke footy club. From little things big things grow.....

also...is it common practise for ch 10 ( I think it was ) to film and broadcast Paul Gallen in his car clearly showing his number plate?

Yeah I agree, none, you're correct. But it says more about Wadey and the club than it does about ASADA in everyone eyes I reckon. It's just dumb and all down side. For a little bit of thought we wouldn't be talking about this right now.

Disagree totally.
If yu are facing a legitimate charge, you frock up. head to the judiciary in a suit in an attempt appear remorseful & less threatening.
when you have done nothing wrong, just go rad & cool because the chics are watching.
