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

Does the blonde bimbo work at a "recognised" law firm? I wouldn't think that any partner wherever she works would be very impressed by her latest foray.

I think I would be described as bald rather than blonde!

You may well be right but I also have a suspicion they just cant bring themselves to lower the guillotine on their shiny shiny lad...

Without doubt its a mighty call for this lot.

I was also thinking if the Asada findings may hold a key to the Bombers avoiding a payout and providing Essendon with a way of voiding Hirds contract

I think Hird has realized that he won't keep his job now - and wants to drag Demetriou down with him.

Essendon obviously realize that Demetriou helped them out, so they'd do best to just let it play out.

The AFL have already punished Essendon as a club, there is not much Asada will do them.

Asada are more interested in individuals and Hird will top their list - at least a life ban.

At this point in time we should be gracious enough to acknowledge the performance of the Essendon team against North Melbourne last night after the pasting their club's been receiving almost right across the football world. Whether or not you like what's been happening at their club, to do what they did against a well regarded opponent shows great character.

Did anyone notice the teeny blink and you'd miss article from Dean Baileys lawyer the other day. It said he was forced to take the punishment by the AFL even though the club had been cleared of tanking. Sound familiar Hirdy? Bailey copped it on the chin, and moved on. Never said a word. The Hirds could learn a bit from his humility.

The thing that really staggers me about this situation is most bombers supporters blind faith in him, and how they were used as scapegoats etc etc. I wonder if they would have reacted like this if Matthew Knights was still the coach? He would have been marched out in a second.

Article in the AGE about Dank's performance at Crown:

http://www.theage.com.au/afl/body-count-will-grow-says-dank-20140321-hvlcq.html

He likes making snide comments.

Has he ever given a meaningful reason why he won't talk to ASADA except in court? I would have thought if he has nothing to hide .....

Basically Dank thinks he has done nothing wrong because other people did it too and he feels victimised.

He has obviously broken the WADA code else he would just provide the information.

Will be interesting to see how this plays out.

BTW my source in the Essendon IT department says everything is backed up off site, weekly, monthly and annually. If the records were there they are still there.

Dyson Heppell stocks continue to rise. Watson is unstoppable and they get Chapman, we got Byrnes. Daniher will be scary.

Sorry WJ. Usually love your posts but I just can't abide being gracious toward Essendon. I didn't notice any graciousness from them when our backs were against the wall re 'tanking'. Also, can't forgive them for their thuggery in 2000 Grand Final. I won't bag the players but I just can't bring myself to have nice thoughts about them.

If it was so well documented and Essendon had all the details, you'd have to wonder what Ziggy was drinking when he wrote that review.

Ziggy was supposed to make it go away and it didnt.A paid employee doing a professional job. i think not

Go get some help.

Jack's post is right in the money. Given the schtick they're in, it's an impressive victory.

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the
