Saty will be happy

Maybe we should start another thread in the footy forum.

 

Moved to this “board”? 

Incredible how little fanfare Fitzy story has generated so far. 

I hope Ess never come out of this whole. 

Kind of feel sorry for any victim of this sort of crime.  When a massive majority of this sort of act is completed by drug addicts, it shows just what a sorry state of affairs this world is in at the moment...

Bet that's the last time he'll let Mark Thompson sleep on the couch.  

 

Funny how those most able to do something blame some else-

A few weeks ago Hird blamed Ess for lack of support

Thompson blames Evans for not stopping it all

Now Jobe blames Ess - says the club were negligent, which is true.  https://www.theage.com.au/sport/afl/watson-whacks-bombers-over-supplements-saga-20180523-p4zh2f.html

The more people that were involved go back over it (incl Fitzpatrick, Crameri recently) the more likely the truth will trickle out, especially when someone starts defending their patch.

Only takes one source to find and then leak the lost documents. Who will it be?

The AFL has lost the hearing to just have failed in their attempt to just have a 'preliminary hearing' (mini trial).  It means that McLachlan and Fitzpatrick end up facing trial and could end up giving evidence in court.

They may finally learn that the AFL is not a law unto itself. 

But the cynic in me thinks they will wheel and deal their way out of it.

This has all the potential to lift to a whole new level of interesting.

Very, very damning of the anti-ageing doctor at the heart of this saga. 

https://www.theage.com.au/national/victoria/essendon-saga-doctor-acted-at-highest-end-of-unprofessional-conduct-20180705-p4zpry.html

VCAT found “... Dr Willcourt’s conduct to be at the ‘highest end’ of unprofessional conduct,”.  Yet, the penalty was just $7,000! 

And VCAT rejected the Medical Board's bid "... to force Dr Willcourt to undertake education and be required to practice under supervision."

Should have been banned!!  Instrumental in damaging the lives of 34 young men.


Noticed that training inside now in tracksuits and tops with sleeves, must get pretty hot out TWSNBN land....

In 1998 Dr Willcourt was convicted in the US of "lewd and dissolute" conduct after exposing himself to a police officer in Nevada.

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
