Nothing to see here, look away. If we were guilty of taking banned substances our boys would be playing like Jobe Watson and the Bombers. The reality is that they're playing worse than when they were allegedly tanking which proves that all they were taking was placebos that don't work.

And if we were tanking we no doubt would have played like Lazarus in the following years.

Oh wait that didn't happen did it.....

I really hate the way the media and the AFL are on the side of Essendon

'its not their fault' 'we feel sorry for the club and its players' 'James is a saint' and the worst 'they have been under scrutiny for 4 months...

FFS we were under siege for 12 months. Virtually a day did not go by without some article pillorising Melbourne. From Jurrah, to tanking, Jimma, Mifsud etc etc we copped it left right and centre. No sympathy. Just vitriol that exists to this day.

I hope Ess are booted out of the competition. They are smugger than a black rap star. They pushed the envelope, revelled in it and were outed.

Their administration practices were shabby, their faith in the twin messiahs of Hird and Thompson (the 'dream team') was roundly misplaced. Their arrogance about how they will get out of this and have nothing to worry about is galling. And it is all because the AFL are so weak and driven by a huge egomaniac in Dimwit.

he has had his head in the sand on every major issue of the past 10 years. From drugs to the tribunal to tanking to racism. They treat their favoured sons like rock stars but of you are a Matt Rendell, Dale Lewis or Melbourne you don't count.

The AFL are losing supporters every week with their high handed arrogant attitude. They simply don't get it.

True but you are missing the point, its all about money!

The EFC can generate lots of money so they need to be protected at all costs. While the MFC costs money so why bother protecting them.

The AFL has had bad leadership for years. but things have been going OK so why rock the gravy train too much.

There is alot of threats to Aussie Rules Football in the future but I am not sure the current leadership is up to the task of protecting the game.

The MFC players could not have taken any performance enhacing drugs!

If anyone needs any proof they should just look at how badly the team plays.

I challenge anyone to find evidence that a single MFC player actually improved his performance in 2013!

It just simply did not happen.

Well you may have a point but I wouldn't be surprised if we were choofing the best hooch in town. Thats how bad they are.

And Julia Gillard said there would be no carbon tax and 2013 would see a budget surplus. (600 times)

How come my recent post about Australia getting into the world cup on the night of the qualifier was deleted in minutes yet we can have the Alf-tories of this world constantly get free kicks to post their political grudges!

The elephant in the room is the gorilla in the corner.

I thought the elephant in the room left to head up GWS recruiting.

If there is an elephant in the room then he probably bears a remarkable resemblance to Vlad. After all, he's supposed to be running the show at the MFC through his surrogate PJ the appointed CEO of the club. That being the case, if there is a connection as alleged in the OP between Dank and Craig and Misson, it would surely represent a massive failure in corporate governance on the part of our AFL masters for making Craig the head coach after Neeld's departure and indeed for simply keeping them on the payroll.

On that basis, you would have to accept PJ's word that there's absolutely nothing to worry about. Dr. Bate was on a frolic of his own when dealing with Dank.

Looks like the leadership group is TMac, Viney Chandler and Petty. They look like they have sli

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return.

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
