THE ESSENDON 34: ON TRIAL

Featured Replies

7. employ a charismatic, golden haired, relative of god as a coach

relative?

 

This was an investment property that Taaaaarnia renovated. Not their family home.....

I said it was his Toorak house, not his family home. It is his Toorak house, but also happens to be an investment which he is selling which was revealed to be helping him fund his folly.

I thought essendon were effectively banned until they are cleared so is it unusual that they are allowed to train officially?

 

Fair call M, i thought they were banned from training once infraction notices went out.

But that is not the case obviously...

think the afl make the rules up on the run, wyl

relative?

well i always thought the holy trinity were related, but i'm not religous, dr john :lol:

Very sensitive D2014....

To be fair, allowing provisionally suspended players to train is fair enough.

Youd be very upset if you werent allowed to train and then were found innocent.

Agreed, but once found guilty the time spent training shouldn't count toward the suspension time served (I'm not saying that you specifically are stating it should btw :)


Really cannot believe how Hird still Still and I say again STILL says "Its about the players"

Wrong James, it is and has always ALWAYS been all about you and your huge ego! Your zero understanding and self righteous justifications now cloud what was, an excellent playing career and is now, perhaps almost forgotten. Whatever you have done in a previous playing life, whatever qualifications you think give you brevity and credibility, whatever "Good Will" you built up with the AFL and others is now eroding into the abyss!

And do you know what James, there is one person to blame for the maelstrom you have put your club through!

Do you know who that is James???

Errr..... Jack Watts?

None of this would have happened if we drafted Ollie wines.

I see now that Mr. Armstrong has out done himself.

Had his girlfriend say she was driving when he hit parked cars.

Now been found out.

This guy is a very poor example of the human race .

If he told me it was daytime I would go out and check.

Sound like anyone we know?

BBO?

I don't think you can be found innocent.

You may be not guilty but this may be a long way from being found innocent.

You may be guilty as hell but with insufficient evidence found not guilty, if you know what I mean.

Ok but my point still stands

In other news Hird sets up sausage sizzle outside Bunnings to raise funds for his High Court appeal, whilst Tania is checking out the Dandenong property market. Pride is foolish, and damn costly lol!

Dandenong? Isn't that the Toorak part of Doveton?

Dandenong? Isn't that the Toorak part of Doveton?

more the Nairobi end i'd have said !! :rolleyes:

Apparently the rest of the essendon list are going to "stand in solidarity" and boycott the nab cup if the suspensions arent lifted.

They dont get it do they?


Boycott the NAB cup, miss out because they are provisionally suspended its all the same result.

Extremely disappointing that league officials haven't clarified the situation to the public and have instead allowed the media to run wild.

If untainted players boycott the NAB cup it may put them in breach of their contracts. May be a contractual problem for Essendon's obligation to the AFL too.

i suppose essendon could just claim they can't field a fully fit team and concede the game

 

Stevo carrying on that the players don't want to play because it might hurt the chances of backdated suspensions haha these guys are confident they are innocent aren't they?

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
