    Mr Dank, 56, is facing fraud offences and charges of recklessly endangering serious harm and causing serious harm, NT police said in a statement."

    The Herald Sun article says he "has been charged with causing serious harm, recklessly endangering serious harm and fraud."

    Serious charges. The story behind the story will be fascinating.

    Reckon he would've disposed of them not long after the drive by shooting of his home,  if he hadn't already.

    You could well be right, but i believe both Essendrug and Dank still have all the information well hidden. Neither is prepared to budge unless the other does.

    It’s just sad. He must have gone off the rails after his fine work at Geelong.

    What a disgusting person. He has absolutely no regard for human life. Who knows what he’s once again been injecting people with, let’s hope he gets locked up this time before he kills someone.

    He's just misunderstood. He's only trying to cure cancer after all.

    Thompson certainly did....

    Jeelong’s rise in 2007 was so swift. I still remember that game against Richmond, a mate rang me “Are you watching this..?”

    it was extraodinary, we will never know if it was magic juice, but nothing would suprise me with Thompson and Dank in tandem

    Bomberland could be feeling just a bit uneasy in case he is offered some sort of plea bargain for spilling the beans (or whatever he was using), or even investigator accidentally finding some records that they all thought were well hidden.

    Would not trust the cockroach not to take down his erstwhile mates with the sinking ship (before correcting me on my use of metaphors,  I do recognize that the conventional word in this context is rats not cockroaches - but rats can be useful in laboratories when young AFL players cannot be found, whereas cockroaches really do not have any saving graces).

    My MFCSS twitches whenever his name resurfaces. The MFC seems to have escaped serious scrutiny - I'd rather it buried forever than see investigators digging through fresh documents in the hope of a Bombers' take-down.

    I wouldn't worry. From memory, it was only Trengove and Mitch Clark who might have had some questionable stuff, before the club woke up and gave him the bum's rush. Plus, for any really important stuff (ie criminal), there are people out there ready and willing to put the frighteners on, as they have done in the past.

    There is much more return on capital for the footy media to put the spotlight on late-noughties Geelong than on us. And that won't happen either.

    The Weapon was also present at the Cattery at the start of the 2007 season SW.

    Any sightings of Charters in the NT lately?

    Lindsay Tanner doesn't want to open up the can of worms:

    Loved this quote from him:

    "Be a bit careful of what you read on the front of the Herald Sun," Tanner said.

    Without starting the whole conversation again, people must remember that the investigation was started by the Australian Crime Commission ( now Australian Criminal Intelligence Commission), ....not ASADA!....there is a whole lot more to this than Essendon want exposed.

    Lets not forget that our own coach was there for the duration of the program. 

    Last thing we need is to be connected with Dank/Essendon doping in any shape or form.

    Yes to 'the last thing we need', but overall, no.  It's best if the truth comes out even at the expense of our current coach (who if you believe some posters won't even be with us in 6 months time.)

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
