Brilliant. I was waiting for this. OF COURSE Essendon and their players signed up to the anti-doping code and all that it entails. -

Been saying for ages their strategy is to make public opinion so against asada that the footy world thinks asadas stuff has no credibility. They will take their whack but everyone will think its really harsh and demand their damage is limited by the afl Who will roll over because they love people watching footy -

to be fair, if you have 4 extra players on your list you need an extra 500k just to pay them what everyone else is getting. the actual fact of having an extra 4 players on their list is a different story altogether...

robbo will have to say what he was briefed about. but that only makes him look silly after he denied being briefed by hirds lawyers after caro called him out on it. the real issue here is just how many and which drugs the essendon players were injected with, with the express consent of the entire footy department (including the doctor who asked hirdy to write a letter to himself on behalf of himself after the fact) -

2014 - 4 wins 2013 - 2 wins (GWS, Bulldogs) 2012 - 4 wins (2 v GWS, 1v Gold coast, Essendon) 2011 - 8 wins (oh heady days!) 2010 - 8 wins 2009 - 4 wins (PRE goldcoast/gws - and a loss to richmond after the siren 2008 - 3 wins 2007 - 5 wins (inc the "kruzer cup" 8 seasons. 38 wins out of 176 matches at 21.59% our list is not crash hot either as expansion teams and free agency (and poor drafting choices) have left us without talent. give us a first rounder behind our first pick but tell us we have to trade it so we get a ready-made player in.

3 wins 2 wins 4 wins 9 wins in 3 years To Good for a priority pick Gee that's ugly

http://www.triplem.com.au/melbourne/sport/afl/news/2014/8/aod9604-declared-safe-in-the-united-states/ AOD declared safe in the states. im sure the bombers supporters will jump all over this, but to me this just proves that no one knew if it was safe or not to use TWO YEARS AGO -
soccer players can veto trades as well. its just incredibly rare that we hear about it. (play football manager, manage AFC wimbledon and try and sign Wayne Rooney and see what happens!) theres no problem with this working in afl except that in soccer the richest clubs stay at the top - and we are trying not to let that happen in afl because we want an equal competition (which is why the afl currently gives compensation for a player that leaves)
-
this rarely happens though - most clubs will sell a player in January if their contract ends in june (obviously at a much reduced price, but thats better than getting nothing) if we had a mid season transfer period clubs would do the same.

so when the bombers lose their court of arbitration for sport appeals against the bans handed down by asada (and i know im fast forwarding massively here, but thats what will end up happening i think - they will lose their fed court appeal, asada will issue show cause notices and then bans, and essendon will appeal them) will everyone sit back and go, well, hirdy and essendon actually did all that? or will they say "ASADA are useless" as a result of all the negative spin press that essendon have generated? i mean, we have media suggesting that we should break away from WADA ffs. -
