Chris, you always have good posts and never troll but that comment needs a bit more info :rolleyes:

Curiousty is greatly piqued!

I left a hint the other day in the Saga continues threat thread.

Trying to work out how to say it without actually saying it. Got the info from a mate and it is his mates job on the line if it is not meant to come out.

Barrett has the same relationship with the AFL that Robbo has with Hird, and it doesn't stop at providing information.

McDevitt from ASADA was angered by Hird’s repeated debasing of the joint ASADA and AFL investigation into the program that ran at Windy Hill in 2012.

He said the departed coach needed to accept responsibility.

“He has repeatedly referred to this as the ASADA scandal and did again today. Don’t blame ASADA for doing its job. Blame him and others for not doing theirs,” McDevitt said.

This is not the ASADA scandal. It is the Essendon scandal and will go down in history as such.”

McDevitt is a legend

The contrast in todays 2 main papers is astounding

The Herald Sun employees should all be sent away on a one way ticket

It is nothing more than an Essendrug Fanzine

McDevitt and Co will strike the biggest blow

Deluded to the end: HS byline "I'm a good coach and proud of my record".

On that basis he will surely recommend Neald to follow him.

And.....to my family etc I am truly sorry for (expecting from anyone other than psychopath 'what I have put you through') what you have had to endure.

No word of contrition - all said with absolute absence of insight, like the true psychopath he has shown himself to be

Had to laugh at Slobbo's article today where he said James was going to be sacked after the EFC B&F....

He and others from the club pilloried Caroline Wilson over her article that said the same thing....

Their head is so far up the club they can't see the sunshine....

Last night? Was this a special or something? I think I remember watching Footy Classified on Monday night.

yes it was a special episode for the Hird sacking

Jake Niall's efforts in The Age are special;

"I've been able to come up with a full five players who are definitely good. If I put them in a row I can call them a 'spine'. Essendon are going to be great!"

For me, all his pathetic effort did was remind me of the desperate Carlton supporters a decade ago insisting that they had a spine ready to build a team around.

A spine that included Whitnall and Livingston, if I recall correctly.

Two, ah acquaintances of mine, both heavily involved in professional sport have had some interactions with the given subject!

According to them,( and they have had professional dealings and spoken to many famous sportsmen and women.)

Our friend, has got the greatest ego, by far, of any professional sportsman/women they had ever met!

So Carro could gloat.

and why not :)

Hypothetical:

A large European club, lets say Bayern Munich, decides it needs an edge on its competition.

The coach organises people to run the program.

Those people bring in all the drugs on the quiet and run them through a chemist so it looks legit.

They ask the players to sign consent forms.

The club has heaps of money so it can just lawyer up if anyone tries to investigate.

How do the lawmakers get around this?

To make the individual players responsible for what goes into their body.

Obviously the club and players should be punished in this scenario.

It is the exact reason the laws were written this way.

Essendon has obviously done exactly this and all and sundry should be given maximum penalties

What WADA fears is exactly what you have outlined and that is why they appealed the non-decision of the AFL tribunal.

"We didn't know"

"We lost the records"

"The sports scientist went rogue"

"The players were duped"

"Ha ha ha-- I mean, this has gone on long enough!!!"

James had the singular belief that he was right.

Very,very similar to Lance Armstrong.

Hubris.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
