Unwitting lab rats If nothing else Essendon has shown utter disregard for its duty of care. Can of worms becomes 44 gal drum of vipers

The AFL may rule thoroughly and insolently only whilst it is in full control of all elements. Such has been its ability until...... That would be now. Such is the overiding nature of WADA. Brave new world huh Vlad.

Rescue ? Hmm beyond them i suspect. Mitigate ? Very likely . Damage control . Damage nonetheless .

ooh i like this thinking .We need a keystone kind of player. One to tie the others together into unified purpose.

Well given already have red ones we need to develop the blue banana as well !!

id be guessing the camera !! :D

adopted it, raised it and dressed it up for best !!!!!

id do it to lol

Buckley, figjam , ego is not only not a dirty word its my everything V H O my egos just as big as yours but dont call me names as im just a little thin skinned but brighter than you. Gawd... Given both a pistol at dawn. Rate'm both as players but cant stand either. Theyre perfect for black and white as theres no in between for either. Best left well alone for mine

That time of year..... Already !!

And the hole just gets deeper

Maybe untouchable by the AFL .... But luckily others are involved and they carry bigger sticks and couldn't give a toss. Its just a matter of time. And even vlad has no control over that. Essendon will get whacked . Not an If...just how and when.

Seems we Aussies only understand Green or Golden Bananas ! We need to explore these others

Elton had it all worked out lol

yes it was a very "lie to me " tell in that moment .

Thanks Red

Snape lol I liked Snape. I have serious misgivings about GH allegiances. If was any truth in some red and blue in his veins we might have seen him fly the flag once or twice. Strangely i dont recall any occasions.

Finding this all very entertaining . Those poor buggers must be beside themselves with worrying . Will it be points, will it be suspensions, will it be the draft..will it be big money or Will it be all of the above !! The poor diddums !!! Cant see how they can possibly escape free now. Far to many cracks in their stories

Hes perfectly suited to the media isnt he

I just see it as a way for the club to ensure all and any of the higher caliber candidates are still in the game come crunch time. No need to force hands and burn bridges just yet.

As with any of this its too early in the play. A couple more acts to come yet. Its a bit like a dime store detective novel. Lots of nothing wrapped in poorly stitched blindsides. Craig utterings translated are possibly :" I'll only really put my hand up once I know theres a vacancy, otherwise I look a dill." The wiser ones are playing it to the script, the idiots aka the lesser endowed ( intellect ) journo's are still falling for the crumbs. This is about timing. It simply isnt right nor does it suit the majors players. Roos would only entertain it once the new board and FD have shape and credo. I dont think hes really swayed either way for a PP though like anyone youd say thankyou. He might be swayed by what sort of longer term help the AFL has in mind. If Roos came hed have to do it for 5. # is unlikley to see top line results and Im sure thats what hed want to be gauged by. If 5, then he ( nor anyone ) would be inclined if the hand up was only for a season as such.. "Here you go, mind your step....bye " Eade and Williams would sign on a phonecall Id reckon. Craig is the fox. hes not silly Far from being worse gig in town , coaching the Dees is starting to get some shine. PJ is steering this well imho

In the world of security . Healy would be seen as a liability. Thats Greg not Gerard.

Voss is set to be offered another 2 years isnt he ?

Im sure under normal circumstances id say 100's and 1000's would partake , but were mainly banana and now seemingly carrot ppl here

Watts done is done and cant be undone , only the moment you live in is influential by design. Im prepared to leave watt was watt and move to today and here we see a player happy to play footy. Thats a positive. I and some others here who have had the faith ( though severely tested at times ) always thought it was nearly always going to be about how he (JW) perceived his place in things. Once he was not only comfortable with that but could see he was more than capable to take the potential of what lay ahead full on and not blink, then and only then , he would perform to his belief and our expectations. No point reliving past pain we move on
