    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: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

      With their season all over bar the shouting the Demons head back on the road for the third week in a row as they return to Adelaide to take on the Crows. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.
