Malthouse calls Baker a dirty dog
The Pies hierarchy seem to be hiding by a "tit-for-tat" defence; i,e., we were called names and responded in kind. "If you give it, you've gotta take it," said Nick Maxwell.
But who in fact started the slanging match?
According to Caroline Wilson, Malthouse called Baker a "dirty effing dog", presumably because Baker was involved in a stoush with Collingwood players at the end of the quarter.
To me this sounds as if the Malthouse initiated the abuse.
And in any case he certainly initiated the tone of the game. Because it was his players who came out playing the man and not the ball (similar to the way Richmond earned the high-handed contempt of Nick Maxwell late last year).
Tit-for-tat. If you give it you've gotta take it.
Indeed.

Talking about dirty dog tactics ..
Even before the match started we all saw how they were going after Jones... 3 or 4 players banging in to him... obviously under Malthouse instructions.
The umpires should have paid a 50 metre penalty to Jones straight off the bat - they needed to take charge. They should have sent a clear message against Collingwood's "play the man" tactics.

I had heard rumors that eddie called the saints suggesting that if we took it further that milne would be sighted for his homophobic comments and that their superior legal team might make life difficult for the saints. E.g. if the Saints didn't have audio evidence that slander charges may come out of it. I thought it was our usual paranoia but it looks as if Caro might have heard similar.
As I have said before the toxic environment at the Pies has sent Mick troppo. He said that the media are hoping Ball fails. The media spoke of Collingwoods decietful dealings with the Saints as if it was genius. Eddie is a corporate bully who loves nothing more than winning at someone elses cost. I personally feel Mick knows he is on the way out and is waiting to get "boned" by the boss.

It was too damaging and it's gone well beyond all that... his feeble smokescreen attempt was the comment on the media 'willing' Ball to fail, and Cousins to relapse.
If the dorks manage to thump them (*prays*) next week then the rot will really start to set in.
Which would be most upsetting.

Well, I'm glad we may have tipped Mick down the slippery slope, as it couldn't have happened to a nicer guy. Given that we have Freo this weekend though, being a conspiracy theorist, I'm worried about the AFL squaring the ledger this weekend, for daring to make their 'Jewel of the Empire' look like the filthy scum they are. No free kicks for Milney this week.markp wrote:Cynic!!SainterK wrote:Call me a cynic, but does anyone find it interesting that once again, nobody is talking about how Mick Malthouse lost a very winnable game of footy?

But I love how the free kick went against us! Of course O'Brian the dog was "allowed" to just run in before the bounce and attack Jones, and then have players continually attack him during the game.samoht wrote:Talking about dirty dog tactics ..

Perhaps if Malthouse had instructed his bunch of low-lifes to actually play football rather than footbrawl they might have gotten somewhere on the scoreboard. Too focused in trying to put a superior side off its game by playing bully-boy! Clearly a tactic used by a desperate 'lying' coach in his bid to gain himself a Premiership. It's coach before team, and it's disgusting! Don't even get me started on Licuria - he's also a dog has-been/never-was!
When they created LENNY HAYES (in the shadow of Harvs) they forgot to break the mold (again)- hence the Supremely Incredible Jack Steven!!

I'm tipping another finals failure and Mick will be gone this year. And given Eddie's crappola and hysterics... don't be surprised if there are moves to topple him also.
Every year that passes without a flag, they dynamic duo have less places to hide.
It sounds like Pert has had a gutfull. The question is: will Eddie go quietly?
I doubt it.

Hawks often belt them, Bombers could be far too quick and if Blues knock them off the week after, I don't reckon MM will see the the split round as C'wood coach.
