WADA were furious with the Cronulla backdating and gave their explanation as to why they wouldn't challenge it. I see no way at all they will back off on Ess as its Ess that have consistently caused delay after delay. Its the only thing that gives me comfort that the AFL can't do a sweetheart deal and get away with it as they have done forever.

Posters making definitive statements like this just show their ignorance.What because he copped a knock and was subbed out???

Snide and unneccessary. Here's the bit you don't get. Put your man on ignore. Then you don't have to bore the living daylights out those of us who are interested in what he has to say. Are you 14yo?

Suggest you look at his post and comments and interests. S'not me that's a-shoutin'

Wow maybe Jones should have gotten the free... Sorry disagree. It was a massively dumb piece of footy. No coomparison between Jones tryig to to take the game on and falling on a player in the fwd 50 and costing a goal.

For someone interested in psycology you would make a good case study......

Well here's another one. Cory Dell Olio.... http://www.theage.com.au/afl/afl-news/former-essendon-player-cory-dellolio-told-to-sit-out-of-wafl-practice-matches-20150211-13c1hi.html Its pretty [censored] obvious who the players are James. you dingbat..

I guess the logic is that if an Olympic athlete gets a 2 yr ban between Olympics they won't miss out on the games....

The Pavlich incident is legal. The Matt Jones thing I will respectfully disagree with you. He fell into his back when the guy was on the ground.

Garland made the same mistakes as last year but you think he will get better yet you have written off Grimes.Garland had a shocking year in 2014 and needs to improve dramatically as there is competition for his spot.

I get it when players make a skill error from time to time but what annoys the living carp out of me s when guys like Matt Jones simply falls into the back of a player already on the ground to give away a free kick. Its just dumb football. I'm not sure you can coach some players out of that but having said that I thought last night our tackling was pretty good and players generally waited or at least were thoughtful before tackling so as to try not to infringe....

We were goal-less for 2 quarters. We let them kick 6 in a row. We had 2 shots to take the lead in the final quarter and butchered both

Thanks Happy. Someone stole blanket today did they?

Both Jamar and Garlett had kicks o put us in front and butchered them. Frustrating.

Lazy pass by Gawn botches our only real goal chance fo rthe quarter

getting ugly....

Freo 6 I50s for 3 goals....this quarter

Pederson drops a chest mark and its a freo shot at goal....

I see there are 262 guests reading this site. How about joining up and contributing??

because they are treating the whole process with contempt and to their own ends.. Hang 'em high I say....

There would have to be, The penalties already handed down to Ess relate to poor governance. Not to using illegal substances. It would be breathtaking in the extreme if the perpetrators of the regime that oversaw and implemented drug taking were not sanctioned further. The Directors should also be fined heavily if not disbarred from being a director by Worksafe Victoria

AOD 9604 Prohibited....

If they had nothing to hide they would have told them everything.....

Full back

Great news. Smithy is a top bloke and a good melbourne man. Can only be of benefit for the Dees although he would be limited in what he can do for us I am guessing.....
