COGG Watch COGGWatcher's have reported that the smile that appeared on Gavan O'Connor's face about three Sundays ago had little to do with the Cat's performance against Port Power (although we did notice on the telly that you were there Gavan!) but was rather a reaction to a story that appeared in that morning's Sunday Age. What caused Gavan's smile apparently was the reference to former MUSU Presidents being investigated as to their possible roles in the Landeryou deals. The story related to one Andrew Landeryou and certain financial deals involving Melbourne University Students Union and companies associated with the said Landeryou. geelongcoggwatch.blogspot.com   (5377 words)
