Bombers scandal: charged, <redacted> and <infracted>

[DemonWA 3,936]

Just saw channel 7s report on the bombers in the 6 o'clock bulletin. Came across like reimers has made a claim, and the bombers are nipping it in the bud before it gets any momentum. Knowing that reimers is basically white trash it'll be interesting to see if the bombers really have any case to answer.

I just threw up a little in my mouth.

You can always move to the mainland.

I spent 2 hours listening to 3AW tonight DemonWA

From what they said the press has been chasing the bombers about this story for a few weeks.

As late as the weekend they were threatening journalists with legal action.

Seems Evans came home for OS on sunday and it has taken off from when he went into the EFC on Monday.

Someone just posted this on BigFooty. Quite a poignant observation!

[monoccular 17,573]

"On the bomber boards someone has said it is SARMS they were using. If so, this is really bad [censored]. Looking through what it does and how it works, I would put it in the massively high risk category for long-term impact on your health and probably some forms of cancer. I really hope they haven't been stupid enough to go down that path. "

These 2 paragraphs particularly interested me: I know we beat them, unexpectedly, at night. Does anyone remember how they fared especially in night games last season?

The only side effect reported, extensively, by bodybuilder guinea pigs on internet forums is a change in light sensitivity. "It's like looking through yellow sunglasses at night, a high beam coming at me no longer blinds me,'' said one user.

Another said his eyes took from five to 10 minutes to adjust when he moved into or out of a brightly lit room.

You've got to feel bad for Goddard right now.

He could have to carry the team, along with this year's batch of recruits, unless of course they have "signed waivers" and started on the stuff already too.

The AFL will have to get in and quickly Lance this before it gets out of hand.

The weapon seems to be backfiring regularly .

The sponsors are calling the shots at board level .

The head coach didn't want the job=neither does his better qualified assistant .

They lost to us.

Give me more!

Interesting remark by a circumspect Gerard Healy on AW tonight concerning a recent Sports Medicine conference he attended on the Gold Coast. He stated that observations about the likely reasons behind the Dons bizarre level of soft tissue injuries in 2012 were "very interesting in light of current events".

Good to hear him stir the pot ... but he's still a [censored].

I don't want any drug scandals in footy, I just want to watch the best game in the world and know that everyone has an opportunity to win and everyone is trying to win.

But I have to admit that I am secretly glad that this has happened to the Bummers. They were a team I had very little feeling about until the 2000 GF, and since then I have a deep, cold hatred of them. The only thing better than seeing Eddie McGuire's face after a losing GF was seeing Hird's after a losing GF. One of my favourite footy moments is Matty Whelan crunching Hird - it was a little bit of revenge. If I had to choose a c;ub for a scandal it would be the Bummers.

[Biffen 12,947]

Does this mean that we might get handed the 2000 Premiership on a countback?

Let ti happen....

Please universe ,make this happen.

[stuie 7,374]

More on Dank ... We dig into the archives to find out a little more about Stephen Dank

This is rather strange, Stuie. You and I being civil to each other. On this topic we unite against a common enemy!

The one thing that could untie has, hatred of the Bombers.

[biggestred 5,138]

I think ive nearly stopped laughing.

Oh no, there i go again.

Hhahahahahahahahahaha!

with an ashen face?

The HUN is reporting that Geelong and Gold Coast may need to answer some questions regarding their employment of Essendon's fitness staff...the demons may actually make the finals this year by default...

[beelzebub 23,383]

The Bradbury effect !!!! :-)

I knew you were a sadist.

Let him free.

[titan_uranus 25,043]

At least this gives the media something else to run with (and maybe something under which the AFL can bury any statement about us).

Also, guess who's back?

Dream team in trouble

Yep, could Geelong and their three flags be under threat?

Cautious Cats back AFL investigation into Essendon

In a club statement, the Cats said: "The Geelong Football Club can confirm that an individual involved with the Essendon Football Club fitness program during the period currently under investigation was also previously employed by the Geelong Football Club.

[Bitter but optimistic 22,246]

Can I join the above lovefest Stuie? There's nothing more joyous and likely to unite than another's misfortune. Especially if it Essendon. (Well maybe Carlscum)

[demoniac 1,336]

Apparently the chap at the centre is now at another AFL Club. Of course he does have legitimate expertise in sports science so that is no surprise. If events at Essendon in 2012 were untoward in an WADA/ASADA contravening way then he is finished. Would not necesarily follow that he had caused same events to unfold at that club.

I welcome my nemesis evil trinity of RR, Biff, and BBO, with open arms and a heart full of hate for the Essendon Football Club.

As of this historic and joyous day, I'm resetting my disdain for you guys and gladly kissing your metaphorical foreheads. We've blown up the credit card buildings and all gone back to 0.

I love youse all.

[stuie 7,374]

Weapon disarmed.

Ok Stuie but let's just take it slowly. You were a bit too quick to offer body contact for my liking. Anyway, time for some entertainment on Bomberblitz.

[Deemachine 58]

On Bomberblitz,some have raised the possibility of the essendon fc being banned from the 2013 season altogether. Although I think it's highly unlikely, what would become of their recently recruited players and others not implicated? Could the AFL hold a mini draft of Essendon listed players to redistribute them to the other clubs?
