Just a bit more info - Essendon were fined in 1996 for the salary cap breaches and draft tampering that occurred between 1991 to 1996. Additionally they had to pay back taxes. Essendon were also fined in 2003 but that was a more complex case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I want endear myself to the Ultras on here but Gallop's success in the NRL in managing to restructure the very broken ancient hierarchy of the sport's governing body alongside already achieving some success in the Overall Professional Presentation of the A-League since he's been charge would point towards a more decisive verdict this time.

Shahanga Posted April 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 (edited) http://theworldgame.sbs.com.au/article/2015/04/01/sage-vows-axe-glory-ceo-if-new-salary-cap-allegations-are-upheld Glory may lose points I would be surprised if they were to lose all there points. They may be docked enough to finish 5th or 6th Firstly that's a shocking article. It reads as if Perth is accused of paying Keogh outside of the cap 2 years ago. Well if they did the CEO should certainly be sacked (and some people arrested) as he wasn't at Perth then. Secondly, TBH I can't see what this story has to do with our run in. Salary cap breaches have to be pretty serious (eg http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2002_Bulldogs_RLFC_season & of course the systematic Storm cheating) for a team to lose all their points and its not clear to me that this is the case. How about we go out and try to win 4 football games for an idea? Edited April 2, 2015 by Shahanga Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jw1739 Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 No, the article says that Sage is suing Fairfax for an alleged defamatory article written two years ago... ..but you're right on your second point. We have to focus on our four matches, not anyone else's. Our aim should be to win each one, just as it should be from the very first match of each season, because they are all six-pointers. That's the simple fact. What others do is their business. Honestly, as a club we still have this mediocrity approach of trying to get over the line at the last minute. Really pisses me off.

[LIBBA] Posted April 7, 2015 Report Share Posted April 7, 2015 (edited) From what i've seen on the Fox Sports A-League app (not sure how correct it is), it looks to be 3rd vs 6th on Friday night and 4th vs 5th play on the Sunday. If thats the case, im really hoping we finish 6th.

Tesla Posted April 10, 2015 Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 (edited) So with Glory automatically going to 7th, we will finish 6th and probably play Wellington or Adelaide. In the unlikely event we finish 5th, I guess it's Sydney, or could be Wellington. Either way it's one of those 3 options.I think the Visitors are likely to hold the top spot now.

Shahanga Posted April 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2015 So we are now WDD in this run in, which is a hell of a lot better than some predictions on here and is better than most of our other (pathetic) run ins. In other news I note we have 9 wins this season, which equals our club record, with 2 games in hand. Our previous seasons: 2011: P30 W8, 35 points 2012: P27 W9, 37 points 2013: P27 W8, 27 points 2014: P27 W6, 26 points Currently: 2015: P25 W9, 35 points I don't want to celebrate mediocrity, but I do think it shows the club is moving in the right direction. Good teams in this league win more than half their games and that's where we have to be next year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nate Posted April 18, 2015 Report Share Posted April 18, 2015 If we beat/draw with Adelaide in the final game of the H&A season, then we'll play them again the following week which would be a far more appealing proposition than Wellington away. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
perthheart Posted April 18, 2015 Report Share Posted April 18, 2015 (edited) Prospect of adelaide away for our final gives me some hope, think it is by far the best we could hope for.
