Tim has been an embarrassment to himself for the duration of this saga and would be doing Jobe a favour if kept his biased and completely conflicted views to himself.

I had a bit of a look through the * board to get some of their supporters point of view. You knew balanced and reasonable.
The best was something along the lines of "if Jobe has to hand it back and that campaigner Mitchell gets it I'll lose the plot. I couldn't handle seeing his name associated with fairest!"
From a * supporter of all people!!

Nope. Different situation though as in most circumstances the people who finished below him either got caught doping or suspected very highly of doping.

It is the question of if everyone is doping then no one has an advantage. Is that cheating? Dunno the answer myself.

Those "campaigners" wouldnt know the meaning of FAIREST if it turned into a bus and run them over.
Give me strength.

Surely this is a no-brainer?

The guy is an average plodder at best when not taking performance enhancing drugs.

Cotchin and Mitchell polled those votes clean, Watson polled those votes on the juice.

Surely the AFL only look stupid not giving the medal to those two blokes?

Jobe's medal should be melted down and Sam and Trent issued with two fresh shiny ones.

Jobe, given he could pass as a Hobbit, should go on an epic journey and cast the medal into the fires of Mt Doom, thus it's evil hold on him will be destroyed.

It's unfair to even ask Mitchell or Cotchin, they're both in all probability going to say no or that they're not bothered.

The only way to maintain the integrity of the Brownlow is to proudly present them with their medals, with no shame, or skulking or doing it in some low key way, they should be presented them at this year's Brownlow ceremony where they can be given an ovation by their peers as befits untainted winners of the award.

I fully agree with this. The concept of it being merely 'offered' to Sam and Cotchin - thus putting unwarranted pressure on them to either accept or decline - is plain wrong.
However, sadly, I don't see the AFL having the cahoonies to do this with any fanfare (eg at the 2016 Brownlow) because they simply won't want to remind everyone of the shameful *drug-cheating scandal and some bleeding heart would say it would be 'unfair' and 'insensitive' to poor ol' Jobe. Mind you, he and the rest of the *34 probably wouldn't be allowed to attend the Brownlow would they?

What's with the Schultz thing? I've only seen you refer to him like that.

Because he is acting like he knows nothing... This whole I'm innocent charade is annoying. Watson wanted an edge just like Hird. Now that he is busted he is still pedalling bullshit. Frustrating

But what about Essendons hold?

Maybe its just massive delusions of grandeur throughout the whole club!

Jobe didn't trip over in his garden and accidently land on a syringe, what people are ignoring is that there were over 24,000 injections distributed, twenty.four.thousand. The fact that none of the 30 players drug tested declared any injections beside paracetomol during the "programme" shows that they all knew they were doing the wrong thing and covered it up, why it hasn't already been stripped is the only thing more staggering.

Nonono just read the Essendon board, Watson deserves his Brownlow but they will roll in their graves if Mitchell wins a "fairest" award.
 
No player should have a say in the matter, the AFL needs to strip Watson of the Brownlow for cheating and award it to Sam and Trent.
