Now we will know what it is like to have a ruckman who can win a hit out.

At least we now have someone to replace Leuenberger.

Happy to get him was unlucky to be turfed last year by roos for gawn
Averaged 8 Disposals, 30 hit outs, 3.6 tackles and 1.6 marks last season
Not the worse more hitouts then we got in the whole of last season

----

If we beat one side this year, let it be Port with Jamar dominating.

As long as we keep attracting players and support staff from clubs with some sort of connection to Dank/Robinson then im perfectly happy.

Good news at last, this is the second best signing behind Crowley.

That second last quote. Is that correct? Surely by now even the most one eyed Essendon supporter must be wanting separation from Dank and Robinson.

Very disappointed to see the Russian join the filthy drug cheats

Yes, I think it was more tongue-in-cheek than anything.

Yeah, nah. They can have him.

Can't bowl, can't throw.

The Ox just reported that Port offered Jamar more money than EFC who had put a deadline on their offer.  Jamar had to accept the lower offer. 

The deadline very conveniently ended before the AFL decision on top-up players.  The 'handball' to Dillon and the other 13 clubs was simply a stalling tactic!  How contrived!!  Yep, let the cheats take the best available and b.....r the other 4 clubs!! 

I bet the AFL would have made a decision earlier and in favour of the other 4 affected clubs if one was Collingwood (Eddie would be squealing) or Carlton (we all know who the AFC Chairman played for).

Astounding. What exactly is it in the water over in Bomberland? They're all delusional.

I believe Ox's information is spot on and simply highlights the AFL's incomptence in the way it has conducted this process.

Incompetence or yet another clandestine way to help their pet club ?

Ding, ding, ding. We have a winner.

I made a post about this yesterday in the Gil thread. The delayed decision for all non-Essendon clubs was by design to ensure Essendon got the best available players.

I had a feeling this might be the case.

When the AFL should've come down hard on a club and made it emphatically known to all that what they did was wrong and not what the game is about, they instead nurture and go to these kinds of extremes to help said club.

It's a shock Gillon didn't set up a free hugs stand at Windy Hill the way he was carrying on in interviews when the CAS verdict came in, he was already that far in their favour.

Incompetence is far too kind a slant on this sordid episode.

Corrupt is even a bit kind, but I struggle to find a term to describe it better.
