What really upsets me about this whole Essendon thing is that in the last 3 years Paul Little (by the way what a ghastly man) and others (even Simon Madden) have stood up in public and said that they "believe" nothing harmful or illegal was given, and other words to that effect. When it came to the crunch, it seems they could not provide any evidence of what was given. They have probably fed this line to parents and players as well. Either they do know what was given and don't want it public or they don't have a clue what was given. In other words, they have lied, lied, lied all the way through.

I have read a few things suggesting that Essendon adopted an approach that proved tactically poor. I have not read anything that suggests Essendon adopted an unethical approach to getting out of an unethical situation. Anybody still at the club from the last 3 years needs to go (including board members). They are not just tainted from 2012, they are tainted from the last 3 years.

Wow the west is reporting this:
All 12 suspended players still at Essendon will have the power to declare themselves de-listed free agents and walk out on the embattled club for a new AFL home after receiving year-long doping bans.





In a revelation that threatens to further gut a shattered Essendon list, the AFL Players’ Association confirmed at a closed meeting yesterday that each of the dozen Bombers suspended by the Court of Arbitration for Sport was free to quit Essendon of their own will.

The AFL have to do all they can to stop the players suing. I guess this would be part of that.
 
Richmond use their Dangerfield/Treloar money to buy Heppell, The Bulldogs replace Murphy on half back with Hibberd.

It could be messy for Essendon if the players can go anywhere for any amount of cash.

So much for crime doesn't pay or do the crime do the time. They get a 12 month fully paid holiday and then a licence to print money. This poor Essendon player spin stinks to high heaven.

I think all this saga the winner will be john worsfold no pressure next two year to deliver yet take the money. All this player is old enough to decided what is inject to the body. Watson - we are innocent what a joke.
 
Also.

Five of the 12 banned Essendon players — Cale Hooker, Travis Colyer, Ben Howlett, David Myers and Tayte Pears — are from WA, leaving Fremantle and West Coast in a strong position to target them as free-agency recruits.
Would either WA club want any of them other than Hooker though? Is he the only one that would be B22 in either team?

James Hird tell all interview with Tracy Holmes on ABC 24 Sunday night

Talk about being as hard hitting as being whacked with a wet lettuce leaf.
media outlets are absolutely delusional giving this guy any more money for his story. He's already shown to be on one-track and to be of quite questionable believability. There's going to be nothing new here because he's not smart enough to make up anything more to add to his proven false story.

Unless of course he finally tells the actual truth

Hird will be taking his cues from the Lance Armstrong song book (before he was exposed) deny, deny, deny and claim persecution.

Maybe Andrew Denton could be brought in to sort the chaff from the straw.

Tracy Holmes, mmmmmmmmmmmm, she is one person to Stan by.
 
Dont mention the Saints and their total stuff up re the Carlyle signing. Deleted posts and thread bans will be the outcome. Who is this Defacto and why is he a protected species on BF. He can say what he likes about Freo but mention a Saints mess and we are shutdown in a second.

I think it's one of Bushie's aliases :)
 
The Saints signing Carlisle was so stupid on their behalf. They should've stuck to their guns & either gotten him cheap or not at all, because they took him knowing this was a major possibility. For CAS to look at a case, there has to be a reaaaally compelling appeal. I can see why guys traded before then were done - because no one really knew what went on at the bombers, or how likely a ban was going to be.

I agree with the sentiment but the ABC have already confirmed that it is an unpaid interview.

Fu@king hawthorn, nothing bad ever happens to them. They dodged a bullet big time with Carlisle.
