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.

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
