Should the AFL let hawthorn be so poo and piss?

They might have gotten worse if they were actually successful with their cheating. At least Carlton actually won a flag when they cheated.
Fair enough. However who's to say that Carlton wasn't cheating that year but just didn't get caught? They too got done for cheating the cap in 1993. And again in 1999.Irrelevent. Its the act of cheating rather than the result itself which is important.
Also worth raising that Carlton were never found to have cheated in a premiership year (1995) unlike Essendon who dodged the cap in 1993.
That 1993 flag has a massive asterisk...

And it should be remembered that after 2000 (Essendon premiership year) they had to get rid of x amount of players to fit under the cap. Hardwick, Caracella, etc etc.Irrelevent. Its the act of cheating rather than the result itself which is important.

they still have more flags then you
Hawthorn should be the ones that fold, they aren't even big 4 and can barely get attendance figures to their games
Ahh. A stalker surfaces from the shallow end.
Would be nice if even one of them was not a dullard. Even for a short moment in time.
Lol Richmond have less flags than Hawthorn. Heck even Fitzroy probably have more flags
Tommy Hafey aside (and you shat the bed in Tommy's game) Richmond has been a haven for losers for more than 130 years. That includes Jack Dyer who never really succeeded at anything
Couldnt even win Pahran for the reds back in the day
In fact its somewhat heartening that the Richmond constituency is mostly welfate dodgers, the deranged, destitutes and Franga pizza delivery boys...the Richmond 'loveable losers' tag fits the membership like a glove
Makes even bean counting boring.
I'd estimate that Essendon are in the hole for around $10 million, conceivably much more so far from this saga - some quick conservative figures:
lel desperate deflection attempt noted and derailment of your own thread, but let's not go down that path for the 200 zillionth time because it always ends badly for you
this about Hawthorn not being big 4 and being the ones should fold, yes Essendon are shit cakes at the moment but the competition is still better with them in it then the piss and poo
shut up super mod flog
have you ever put sleep, to sleep?Cool.
So did Jack Dyer suceed at anything? Why did Richmond shit the bed against the GoDees! In the Tommy Hafey memorable game lol. Do you think the Richmond FC collected disgraced the legacy of Tom Hafey that day???
As for Essendon...they are stuffed. I dont think it should be up to the heavy lifters (namely 1. Hawthorn, 2. West Coast snd 3. Collingwood) to prop them up. What do you think little destitute Tiger?
I'd estimate that Essendon are in the hole for around $10 million, conceivably much more so far from this saga - some quick conservative figures:
$2m - AFL fine
$750K - Albert's European Vacation
$1m - Weapon payments
$750K - Albert termination
$2m - Federal court (legal fees + ASADA legal costs)
$500K - PR consultants
$1m - other legal fees
$600K - doping aka supplements program
$????? - brand reputation, lost sponsorship opportunities etc - would have to top $1m
And the one that will dwarf this
$????? - defending/settling future action
That right there is the key point. Scary times ahead for the EFC.And the one that will dwarf this
$????? - defending/settling future action
You know those times when your lout of a mate is drunkenly thrusting his **** all over the place and you want to say "not my mate" and disown him?
We sure he's actually a 'mate' in this case? Strikes me as an elias troll.You know those times when your lout of a mate is drunkenly thrusting his **** all over the place and you want to say "not my mate" and disown him?
There needs to useless teams in the AFL with talks of folding to keep the pressure off the other teams. Melbourne have been as useful as Anne Frank's drum set for the last 10 years and it’s now Essendon’s turn.
Thanks in advance Dons. For the good of the AFL
