Jobe Watson is officially a low-life.

Cheated like mad.
Knew he was cheating.
Knew he was hiding the cheating from testers.
Wont admit anything no matter what.
Said he would hand back his medal. lied.

Time for him to take a long walk off a short plank and stop tainting the game we love.

I'm struggling to think of any player who has shown so little integrity before.

great points one and all with a couple of misses.

in all likelihood he probably convinced his younger teammates that everything was all right - did he get a bonus on his contract for that?

Never had the courage to stand up and say no to needles unlike zahkarakis.

no wonder he went of hiding overseas with his tale between his legs.

The coffee is better on ny :)
 
If they are worth giving out then they are worth taking back. Or if its just a piece of alloy why not hand them out to everyone. Or noone now that anyone gets one.

yes, thank god for fairfax reporting on the big issues on this one. Watson, no longer a Brownlow medalist, and the AFL have clearly made a private agreement that he keep the actual physical medal, whilst no longer being an actual Brownlow medalist. So the only stakeholders who matter are fine with it. It means absolutely nothing to no-one that he keep it. But apparently it's a STAIN on our GREAT GAME, and in a breath-taking example of utterly un-self aware meta reality it's actually the unnecessary reporting on the matter that's actually dragging it on rather than the act itself, because without the status it confers the medal itself is actually a meaningless bit of metal.

But god I love the outrage in the true believers. So delicious. If you look at the few who've actually expressed their outrage it is... telling...

What a load of horseshit. Just like the fining Melbourne for NOT tanking. AFL are an absolute joke... and right now, so is Jobe. Not an ounce of integrity between them.

Incredible to think "handing back the medal" doesn't actually involve handing back the medal. It's the last gap of ridiculousness in the whole saga.

Jobe does not have a claim to the medal, he does

Sorry not sure why you're quoting me? The physical medal isn't Mitchells or Cotchins. They have theirs. :)

What part am I wrong on?

Pretty damn clear, Jobe has no claim on the medal. Take performance enhancing drugs, no Brownlow.

Next time you quote me please try and stay on the point I'm discussing. :)

Simple, it's not his Brownlow. Jobe lied and cheated to get his hands on it. It's not his to have.

Simple, you've gone off on a tangent because you can't argue my point.

To make it simple, the Brownlow Jobe hasn't handed back yet is the one he isn't entitled to.

If he truly had integrity, he would have handed it back to the AFL by now.

Yes, yes, semantics are fun. Last refuge and all that jazz I guess.
