Mark Thompson

Post by MatthewBoydFanClub »

Don't know if this is the right forum, but doesn't it give you confidence in the ability of the Victorian police force, to solve the African gang violence problem, when the first thing Graham Ashton does as police chief when he returns from stress leave, is to raid the house of Mark Thompson.

I had no idea Bomber was involved with African gangs.

I don't know what he has done wrong but I saw him the other day and he looks like he had just eaten a wheelie bin. Hasn't aged very well either.

Clearly, African gangs are not as dangerous as Murdoch's press would have you believe.
OR, the alternative hypothesis, is that the African gangs are being led and co-ordinated by Bomber Thomson.
Which alternative is more likely, I wonder??

Were there really more than a few?
I seem to recall some posters hinting at problems.
I thought more posters were fantasizing about unavailable coaches.

I'm betting that there is suspicion that he has withheld information during the initial investigation and they are looking to see if there is anything else that should be brought forward. The whole thing is a joke; bombers got off light and the afl came out smelling less than pristine. Its a stain that won't go away for decades.

That's right. Bi-polar issues amongst his problems I believe.

Most people does not mean a few disgruntled BMs on Nicks.
There was speculation about Stokes and who he was buying charlie for as well.

Don't know about most, but I plead guilty with an explanation.

Said I wanted Bomber, provided his head was right.

Looks like there was more wrong than meets the eye.
