A few too many blows to the head???

A few too many jabs in the arm.

 

Unless CAS take longer than expected, and on current indications hearings begin in Sydney in November, there is no way he will coach them next year. In fact I am predicting he will be out of the AFL by mid next year. There will be a total rebuild at the Bombers, which will take years. At last the Hird era will be cleansed, and they will start again, and the whole of the AFL will be better off for it.

Then WADA can turn to Athletics!!

If they get banned the rebuild will take years. Good luck trading players in to what will be a non competitive reserves team for 2 yrs.

Had to laugh at a comment I overheard from one of the game's elite young midfielders a few months ago. A Bombers fan asked if they'd consider moving to Essendon. Their response? "No [censored] way."

This was his response to the EFC question.

Gold medal, Choke!!!

Apparently there was an Essendon fundraiser last night to do with Neale Daniher's charitable cause. Attended by many past greats, notables and current players. No prize for guessing who was conspicuous by his absence.

Oh no I was looking forward to winning.


If two have done it they will assume the rest have unless the bombers prove otherwise i reckon.

From the sound of it it was found from routine samples. That means that if they can tie the injection date, as per the hopeless records, and say it was just before the test was taken then they could deduce they were all injected with it but due to be short period it is detectable they others don't have positives as they were injected too long before the sample was taken.

The complicating factor is that the test is in development and as far as I know it is not ratified by WADA for these purposes. This means the best they can say is it provides an indication rather than proof. The defence will jump all over that point and try and have is thrown out. Depends what the judges think as to the weight they give it. If they accept it then the players are f'd.

You forget this is not a court of law. Its CAS. They can attribute whatever weight they deem appropriate to whatever. Its their game now.

That's why I said it depends on what weight the judges choose to give it! Was I too ambiguous in that sentence?

actually. .yes.

Has nothing to do with the defences stand. Its what CAS apply.


Oh dear, there's that propaganda creeping up again!

Jimmy better get on the front foot and leak something damning against the AFL to Slobbo.

I would think his immediate priority is more short term like protecting his job or payout rather than continuing the charade of protecting his players.

I'm sure he's on the phone to CHUBB right now.

  • NON-MFC: Round 07

    Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Fremantle

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
