He was a little more direct than simply "suggesting otherwise". Weasel.

Pretty poor form to publish an apology at the bottom of another story, having published and then deleted the apology under its own link. Can't imagine the AFL is impressed by that.
Poor journalism only Lane. The only 'fact' was that Jack supposedly got his papers in late. Even if it were true there was no evidence that the AFL manipulated the situation in order to give him a green light onto an AFL list. Lane just made that up.
In fact, his whole scenario about the AFL wanting to use a rookie-listed player as an advertisement for the game was ridiculous. I hope the Age sacks him if it hasn't already.

I agree with all of the sentiments expressed in this thread, however what if there was another side to it?
What if there was a transgression somewhere (no matter how minor) and Lane was on to it (where there is smoke there is fire). Couldnt it also be argued in the spirit of the true conspiracy theory, that maybe the AFL put pressure on The Age to bury it or they may lose some of their AFL privileges?
Just a thought...
