Can't believe how much of a run this non issues is getting, yet half of Gold Coast spends its end of year celebrations shovelling coke up their noses and not a mention!
I'll put in $100
Yes - agree 100%. That is what annoyed me - no reaction from any players at all. I don't really care either way about what Mitchell did but there is a way to respond - and we didn't do it (and certainly didn't do it on the scoreboard)
But I have to agree that the players don't care anymore. The sooner Hird goes, the better.

Good sportsmanship - when you don't try to get a pharmacological advantage over your opponents? Right?

The insults that hurt are the ones that ring true.
Sam landed a TKO sledge. It hit Hibberd's brain right in the part that hurt. All he could do in response was half raise a limp arm in resignation.
Baaang. Got him.
Loved it.
Where were his team mates. Where was his captain. They just didn't have it in them. Defeated.
And the best thing is this week it's the same old shit with Hirdy rallying the boys to defend Hirdy's reputation before he decides to pull the pin and jet out of the country that hates him.
And then after all of the years of this shit.... then..... THEN... their 2 year ban starts.
Bombers were so brave to not respond to Mitchell.

Adelaide Crows won 1998 premiership on supplement that carries a warning on WADA website
Adelaide Crows pushed the boundaries in its 1998 premiership season by using colostrum, one of the supplements that carries a warning on the World Anti-Doping Authority's website and has been linked to Essendon.
The WADA website, addressing the list of banned substances for 2013, says: "Colostrum is not prohibited per se, however it contains certain quantities of IGF-1 and other growth factors which are prohibited and can influence the outcome of anti-doping tests.
"Therefore WADA does not recommend the ingestion of this product."
The danger with colostrum is that it contains a growth hormone that is illegal.

Has Watson apologised to Mitchell and Cotchin for taking banned substances that enhanced his performance without informing the umpires that he was ineligible for the Brownlow?

Geez you've got me. They took a substance that isn't banned. Their hormone levels were tested and legal. Geez we're on the deck now. Finish us off.
Meanwhile: salary cap rorting and draft tampering to a 1993 premiership. Charged, proven, sanctioned.
did you guys even read the post and what it was in response to?
Why don't you try again and see how you go, hopefully I don't need to point it out to you

omg, you think having a passionate hatred of a team is unsporting?
****ing lololololol
Better call off sport then. Especially any cross town rivalries in local footy. Most namby post I've just about ever read
David Zaharakis refused to be injected with anything from the EFC, 34 other players play the "we had no choice" card.
Essendon players sledge opposition players about factual and non factual events...
Yet Hird claims Mitchell's sledge about a factual event is "naive and idiotic"...
Talk about irony!
Hird creating the longest train wreck in sporting history. Funny shit!

Yeah I did. But if a pharmacological advantage is cheating I reckon that's not very sportsman-like. The distinction is one I am making.
this should be good. Please show where any of the players have "played the we had no choice card"

No I don't at all. Just like I don't see Mitchell's sledge being a big deal. That's my point. Youse are being a tad precious
a pharmacological advantage is a pharmacological advantage. Jen seemed not to understand her team has done it, and every time has done it. And it absolute ridiculousness of you making such a post when the actual situation is that the only time the players have faced trial they've been cleared.

Why should they? They get to hide behind their union:

this is what you posted
I'd love to know how you meant that to mean what you are saying it does now?
ah right, so what you actually said is complete rubbish. Glad we cleared that up

It's a sledge Lance. Your team should grow a pair for crying out loud. Mitchell is stirring and he is not a tribubal member, journalist or judicial officer - he's an AFL player stirring the pot. Who's being mamby pamby now?
