Interesting re Watson and Brownlow.....Why strip that, yet say AA is valid? Imagine Ben Johnson being considered Athlete of the year....is Lance Armstrong still holding any Cyclist of the year awards. I know circumstances may be different, but performance enhancing drugs are called that for a reason, regardless of how they get into your system they are there.Whilst I dont give a stuff either way re AA, just another example of AFL rules being applied selectively...(good bloke rule maybe?)....I am really peeved at how this administration has basically taken away a sport I really loved, everything about AFL these days needs to be viewed with a very healthy dollop of skepticism and cynicism.

They might not have a clear memory or idea of who the 23rd best player was that year.

And they can't watch the replay AA presentation night because the panel has about eight 23rd best players every year.
 
Yep good points both.I dont think you would need to replace him in the side though..as I wrote Re:AA..its not a big issue however I feel it underscores the big issue.!!!
 
Minor annoyance:

Why does the Lachie Whitfield saga need to be called a 'saga'?

The Essendon saga is rightfully a saga because it went on for like 4 years. This Whitfield controversy was only for a few months at most.

Seems like word associaton. Saga = drug scandal now.

Kip Casper (Klon radio): "I need a saga, what's the saga?"

Not swans related but interesting read on the draft side show.......the usual afl - start with in the end in mind, figure out how to get there on the run.

It is sort of swans related . The AFL knew about this 12 months ago. How long does it take to question the honest young woman, view some text messages and listen to three liars? Whitfield should not have been playing in the finals.
