As far as I'm concerned, the club has moved on and left Lovett in the hands of the law. They're already soldiering on and continuing with their premiership tilt and frankly the ones who can't move on are the supporters who can't stop rubbing salt in their wounds. Stop feeling sorry for yourselves.
The even bigger insult is the notice that supporters expect the club to apologise. Why should the club apologise? Apologise for the obviously lack of a life these so-called supporters have?
If there are people who proclaim to be bleed red, white and black but at the same time can't move on until the club sticks up their hand and says 'fine, we f**ked up', you either need need to grow up or get a new hobby.
Spot on... good summary... again.
As someone stated, it should be Al who apologises.
BTW, did they apologise about Blight? Or Capuano?
Hotel De Los Muertos: Your room is ready... Care to step inside?
Most supporters wont even admit it was a mistake......
It was more of a mistake than
Rix, Elliot, McGough, Ackland, Capuano, Beetham.......at least they wore the guernsey...
And what exact words should they say. We are sorry for drafting AL. How the hell would that help anyone at all.
It would be nice also if the club added....
in future all recruiting decisions will be run by our supporters who post on Saintsational for approval.
After all we are entitled...blah blah blah.....
Lance or James??
There comes a point in every man's life when he has to say, "Enough is enough." For me, that time is now. I have been dealing with claims that I cheated and had an unfair advantage in <redacted>. Over the past three years, I have been subjected to a <redacted>investigation followed by <redacted> witch hunt. The toll this has taken on my family, and my work for <redacted>and on me leads me to where I am today – finished with this nonsense. (Oops just got a spontaneous errection <unredacted>)

yep. i mean people on here can comment on whether we erred for sure. i was just saying to the OP that the club itself cant comment in official media statements cos they could undermine/be seen as prejudicial and get em sued or even cop something criminal on themselves. so they have to stay mum.
but yeah - they might admit they error in a few months.
on the same issue - why would we be so quick to believe sheeds and lloydy and hirdy on the character issue? surely their allegiances lie with the bombers and securing pick 16? they owe the saints nothing and the bombers everything...

True, but if you're gonna ask anyone about a player who's spent the last 7 years or so of his career at Essendon then I suppose you would speak to people who have actually been around him. That means you have to speak to Essendon people. You would hope they'd be professional about it as it potentially affects their credibility.
I remember hearing or reading somewhere (maybe even on here) that the club also spoke to that Quinn guy that was involved with Lovett at his time at Essendon.
From memory, I believe Quinn may of had Lovett live with him and his family for a period of time, and he blossomed during this period of about 9 months?

While we are there lets get the club to apologise for the stolen generation, Hiroshima, The Bold and the Beautiful and anything else this thread can come up with....but for doing its best to get the required talent/skills the side can use to get a flag? Nup- dont need an apology for that.

winners only jumped out of this convo a while back it seems, and since he was on his own and no one agreed with him anyway this thread could probably go too..
