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

Matthew Lloyd is crying that he's had Enough.

Wait until the Bombers have been put through the wringer by every man and his dog for 6 or 7 months with leaks of evidence given by former insiders, many of them with axes to grind, opinion pieces from people with vendettas, others who simply don't understand the issues and still others who want to be mischievous.

"Enough!"

This happens to just be the beginning.

Don't forget their new found tainted reputation- which found guilty or not guilty will stick like mud to them for the next decade or so.

Essendrug. Muwhahahahaha :)

Did you read the article, Jack?

Information gathered through phone taps run to core of ACC findings. Clare not specifying AFL or NRL. But clubs about to know @InsidersABC\
  1. More than one club stands accused of systematic doping. Those clubs will be informed in the coming days @InsidersABC

Two tweets from Gerard Whately

Why do I feel we will be caught up in this......

Guess that means that the next time we play them, it will really be a mud wrestle.

Sure did but for the purposes of my post I was emphasising the headline and the fact that it's too late for "enough".

Just checking.

Something journalists should do more of :ph34r:

Remember when Buddy was supposedly injured last year for 6 weeks.

The rumour was he was on 3 strikes but they didnt want to make it public.

AFL is aware of one player from one club possibly taking WADA banned drugs. It is also aware of multiple players from another club possibly taking drugs, but in this instance it may have been done without their knowledge or consent.

He said the AFL is not aware of any other instances of players taking banned drugs.

He identified the second club as Essendon. Would not identify the first player or his club.

Ok so its Essendon and one other player from another club.

I would guess one of [censored], [censored] or [censored].

Gillion hates CW, Bombers are screwed, at the end interview CW asked a question and GM said he couldnt comment, but im sure you will make a comment, he dislikes her, no match fixing uncovered.

The story that has been buried a bit with all the latest news is the fact that the AFL passed onto to club doctors that player X will not play in certain games last year. The Doctor would then have to tell the coach but he/she could not give the reason why to the coach. Hence a hamstring injury for example.

If Jobe is stripped of his Brownlow, do you think Sam Mitchell and Trent Cotchin will be awarded charlie?

Probably like the Tour De France

There is now winner fro the years LA won.

Record for those years shows no winner.

But in those years the people who finished in the placings all tested positive down the track.

IMO that is not the case in the AFL in 2012 or is it?

Essendon and one player - as far as the AFL is currently aware.

As far as they have any evidence and are willing to reveal.

As far as they have been told by the ACC.

Can anyone honestly say that the bombers aren't screwed? If the bomber players had PED's injected into them without their knowledge who gave the order to do it? You would think the club doctors were told by someone to do it. Why would someone risk their career without being told to do it? I can't see the heirarchy at Essendon not knowing about this.

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out
