My prediction on one element of all of this is that come April either James Hird will have been exonerated or he'll be suing someone.

One of the best examples of sabre rattling I have seen for some time. Well done WADA, excellent timing.

H22, I think the opposite, I think he will be guilty or suing everyone.

Yes, they have made it clear they will review the whole thing and it looks like they will come out with all guns blazing! "We will review the entire investigation when all the cases that have resulted from it have been completed," Howman said. "We will discuss all elements with the Australian government and ASADA." Ha! Won't be engaging at all with the AFL! Big fish in little pond becomes a tadpole in the WADA ocean!

ASADA, being a gov't agency is effectively gagged. Unlike EFC who use for News Ltd to peddle its BS. If nothing else it puts everyone on notice, especially the AFL, to watch its narrative next week.

Looks like WADA are up for the fight! Hooray!

Why does the AFL feel obliged in that article to vaguely imply that the WADA code may need adjustment and thus as it is may not be suitable for AFL. Apparently no other team sport has complained. If by any unlikely chance there is an element that doesn't suit AFL, this is not the time to vaguely imply there is one. Unless of course the AFL feels obliged to kow-tow to the ridiculous EFC/HUN line about this.

Running the "doesn't suit AFL" line smacks of desperation. The sort of legal technicality that a guilty party reaches for. But we know EFC and Hird would never resort to legal technicalities in Hird's relentless quest to reveal the truth.

Sue, it's good to know that with the rewriting of history comes the rewriting of dictionaries, reveal now means obscure at least according to Hird & Co.

There is a certain fascination with blood sports. And Essendon's exsanguination is particularly appealing.

"but the player does not have an infraction notice."

Wow.

Thats even worse news for Essendon then.

The suggestion that the player allegedly does not have an infraction notice indicates that there was more going on than previously known. This could be pandora's box.

In recent weeks we have seen the attack dogs of the EFC barking loudly and often, and by attack dogs I mean News LTD. I think that WADA may just have had enough and decided to put these dogs in their place. WADA is running this show, not Essendon, not the AFL and certainly not that pathetic excuse for a news organisation News LTD.

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
