Yeah this gets sticky, doesn't it?What happens to teams who have played Essendon twice in the finals?
You should be ****ing kicked out of the competition....and they can most certainly have it both ways. How the **** would it work anyway, strip points and keep draft picks? You'd get the #1 pick!Keep points,lose draft picks.

There will only be a deal if both parties are happy obviously, both sides are going to have to give ground, this has become more about Egos than anything else.

Can't understand the purpose of taking points off them and excluding them from finals. Won't achieve SFA, take draft picks off them for coming years, freeze their salary cap when others move, and limit their trade and FA ability. That will hurt far more then removing points, and will hurt the club for a long period of time.
It's not a bad idea the points thing, but I would go with something like this, loss of 88 points= 1 year for no points, or divide the points over 4 years= start each year at -22 points, they can choose which one they'd like.What I think should be done
Hird fired.
Loss of 1st round picks 2013-15
Loss of 2nd round picks 2013-14
Loss of 3rd round pick 2013
Start 2014 on -88 points. Total rolls over season to season until they're in the positive. (So if they finish 5-17 in 2014, they start 2015 on -68 points, then 2-19 in 2015, start 2016 on -60 etc.)
Until they get into positive points, their 1st round pick would be end of 1st round.
(Not including player punishments as WADA can deal with that)
Now what I would have done.
Essendon license revoked, they can go play VFL/VAFA if they want to exist.
Tasmania given license.
But if it does, you'll be in a very good place.I'm all set to win the lotto too. Doesn't mean it will happen.

I can't possibly see how they're going to escape drug sanctions from ASADA. There is concrete proof in that charge document of the club purchasing PEDs, with a whole lot of circumstantial evidence that they then injected those PEDs into a large number of players.
Something isn't right. These penalties are in line with cheating which Essendon has not been found guilty of.
Sooo if they accept these penalties then the charge sheet of alleged substances they used is factual?
