James is right of course. Sam Mitchell was naive and idiotic to make the jabbing motion on Saturday. Tisk tisk I guess that makes those Collingwood cheer squad members leaning over the fence and making the same gestures last year in the game against the Bummers naive and idiotic as well. The Collingwood cheer squad is a barometer and a reflection of society. Could they be wrong?

Not Mt Eliza my friend.

Browny on "On the Couch" just showed footage of Essendon, including Mr Morality himself with black arm bands around the upper forearm right where the drip would be inserted.

Browny said that was idiotic and pretty much Mr Morality should pull his drug peddling head right the fuuck in.

Why is everyone against what Mitchell did? EFC deserve everything they get. Serves them right. They rolled the dice and lost.

And its not like it isn't true. It's factual.

Sorry can you give a bit more detail? What footage? Was it from that year of the black ops?

no, it was in reference to the brisbane injection regime.

it was known at the time, and lloyd has just said he 'can't recall' about it on classified.

do they breed lying sociopaths in tullamarine?

Yup just caught it as I flicked past FC. Lloyd is not a good lier let alone talker.

But this made me laugh.

"League operations manager Mark Evans warned players not to repeat the supplement scandal sledge, saying they should consider their own reputations before making another similar gesture.

(Players) have to accept they are displaying themselves publicly and it will be a reflection on them and their clubs, Evans said.

The AFL seem even more concerned about this small gesture than the fact an illegal, systematic drugs program occurred at the bloody club. Pathetic stuff as usual by the AFL.

Their desperate transparency in protecting ONE club for their abhorrent actions will ultimately be their undoing.

So in 2001 Essendon wore arm bands in the location that injections could have taken place and stated after the fact it was in protest to the opposition of the game in which they played but they didn't tell the opposition.

Sounds legit.

Wish I saw that

Hird is such a pathetic little hypocrite. He needs to [censored] off forever.

Well done Browny

There too many i's when it comes to the Hirdians.

I still prefer the y for why are you still here?

She may have 2 i s but certainly doesn't appear to have any eyes, or open ones anyway.

Its good to see some highly respected people (eg Mitchell, Brown) call Hird and the players out for the hypocrites they are.

I recall 14 of the other 17 coaches did not attend an AFL arranged dinner late last year to welcome Hird back.

No love lost with other clubs, clearly.

To top it off they keep losing!
This is sporting theatre at its best!!

I'm not against what Mitchell did. It is a well known fact that Essendon received penalties for governance issues (over injecting players).

I don't see how Mitchell should be looked upon a perpetrator here, he is merely pointing out that Essendon injected - which they did.

Sam Mitchell is an AFL footballer, he has the right to be a little bit annoyed that those around him have resorted to gaining an unfair advantage - through injections.

Mitchell should not have apologised, but in apologising he has saved himself a sh*t storm.

"AFL arranged"? To "welcome" Hird back??? Ye gods.

Well, any respect I had left for the AFL -- wait a sec. *checks to see if there are any dregs of respect left for the AFL -- finds there are none*

Carry on.

Mitchells apology was more along the lines of "kids shouldnt see that"

Not "i hope i didnt upset essendon"

Actually he didn't apologise from what I have seen. He regrets doing it and wouldn't do it again. Subtle difference but no apology unless I have missed something.

Re Mitchell: Nathan Buckley said on Fox 360 last nite "happened on the field, was based on fact, move on!"

He could have said that Mitchell was just "venting" cos he was cheated out of a Brownlow in 2012!

Can't imagine the pressure that'll be on us to beat the flogs if the Saints get over them next week. If we only get one more win for this year, I'd want it to be against the drug cheats.

Starting to enjoy Bucks on 360. He doesn't just waffle on with political mouthwash the way Roosy sometimes does; he calls a spade a spade.

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
