Last night on Fox footy, John Elliot was on with David Parkin and they showed Fat Jacks speech after the 99 Semi final against WCE with the "Bombers cheated in 93" quote.
I know this topic has been raised before but the story is different to what was posted on TC.
When neale Daniher worked out Carltons centre set up and a solution, thwe story on TC was that a Blues fan found it but didnt pass it on to the club due to ethical concerns but then revealed all to Parkin.

The story Fat Jack told last night (This is also the story I heard) and Parko confirmed it was that Ashman was sent a copy of the Daniher memo before the GF and ignored it. Ashman was gone the following year.

If i remember the TC story earlier Parkin also confirmed the Carlton "fan" story. maybe he was covering for Ashman and calling him "fan" rather then staff

I heard he kept quiet because he was threatened by Daniher when he realised the mistake.

When i originally heard the story which was 10 years ago, I heard that Ashman got sent this letter and it just sat on his desk without him reading it till after th grannie which makes sense.

Fat Jacks direct quote yesterday was "Ashman got a hold of danihers game plan and put it in his pocket"

The Ashman fax story was basicly what Parkin said on ABC radio (last year?), except that he didn't name Ashman, just implied it was someone at the Club who should have known better.

Isnt it funny. The version I heard 10 years ago was that Rod Ashman got a letter from a supporter outlining Essendons plans and only found it on his desk after the game cos he disregarded it when he first got it.


I didnt realise that I was repeating myself
