With the amount of leak's we've had I'm sure it would have come out by now.

How long do you all think I'd last going to Essendrug's next training session dressed as a syringe?

Ah, I see. Sorry I am just too damn excitable today!

I'm probably enjoying this a little too much lol, but being a melbourne supporter we must find the joys in the little things in life. Other club's misfortune is definitely one of them. Especially Essendon. I'm just crossing my fingers that North and Carlton have an equally tasty and spectacular fall out very soon.

No, because the cherry on top of the delicious cake is they will be excluded from the next few drafts. Can't have them prospering from their own mistakes. New potential draftees will not want their kids going to Essendrug either. The far reaching ramifications of all of this is beautiful

Watson will want out. He and Fletch are free agents next year, good timing

So what would actually happen if all players in question were banned for 2 years? Could it mean no more Essendon? This is just too good.

Leave Jobe out of it. He's clean. Plus when he's a free agent next year he's out of there. Would love him in the red and blue

LOL- They're screwed! http://www.afl.com.au/news/2013-02-06/dons-players-legal-threat There is speculation that a growth hormone peptide, known as GHRP6, may be the substance in question. GHRP6 is a banned substance under the World Anti-Doping Agency's (WADA) code. Ings said it was "a troubling substance", which led to one rugby union player being banned for four years last year for the importation and trafficking of the substance. 4 year ban for the importation and trafficking- how much for using and playing? Lol this is the best!!

Because most of their members don't have work or school on a Monday morning.

Off-site billies now? Why not..

I feel for the innocent players, especially Watson, but that is as far as my sympathy goes. They deserve this. Signing confidentiality agreements for off-site injections- they must have known it wasn't above board. As for Hird saying he knew nothing of it that is just a stone faced lie. Suddenly the golden child isn't so golden anymore. Ban them for 2 years. Failing that let them play the next two years for no premiership points and no picks sub round 2 of the draft. Also sack Hird and Bomber and have daily drug tests performed for the next 10 years. Season 2013 is a bloody beauty already LOL!!!

I read that the only players not to participate in this systematic doping were Watson and Fletcher. 2 year bans = no team to field. This must be what a hard on feels like. I am bloody excited. I just wish I had have known about this before I went to work today. Oh how the Essendrug supporters at my work are going to cop it tomorrow lol :)

Lol stop ruining my buzz with your doom and gloom, I'm still high and giddy at the prospect of Essendianabol getting the arse

I'm imagining a competition with no Essendon for the next two years. It's bloody beautiful. I hate them with a passion, you guys have no idea how much I am reveling in their player mismanagement. I don't think anything can top this off. Maybe North filing for bankruptcy but lets just take it one sadistic fantasy at a time shall we? *back to my popcorn and Bomberblitz lol

I feel Sylvia will stay. Or he'll do a "Rivers".... Here we go.

I want Jobe Watson to be every club's number 1 target for the lols.

I agree; Moloney's absence from the group should do nothing but improve the team's dynamic. This club needs leaders who lead through example, in this regard there is a massive chasm between the respective attitudes of Jones and Moloney.

... eat like it's Christmas day, every day?

This is not a picture of a man who left willingly to pursue other job opportunities.

It's 20 interchanges per quarter. I just don't see the point- change for the sake of change again. Is there any other sport in the world that introduces new rules every damn season?

Think we'll just leave the whole conversation up and let Demonland make up it's own mind. Btw I never said Barry was no good, I said he was the definition of a risk. I bloody love you stuie

1) Training = Intensity of AFL matches (lol) 2) Dustin Fletcher plays with no tag and is a defender. His weapon is his reach he doesn't need bulk. 3) Viney, Toumpas, Hogan are under 22 and all have the body to become a regular. They all say "hi" too.

Moloney- long servant who lost his way. Cracked the sads when dropped from the leadership group and went from leader on the field to finger pointer. Neeld gave him ample opportunity to prove himself and crack back into the team, and seeing as he couldn't with our "third world midfield" Moloney proved himself to be a spent force. Conclusion traded. Training habits don't come into it. Martin- tried in numerous positions around the field yet struggled to find a niche. Had one good season when Jamar went down but unless dominating ruck he ran around like a headless chook. Clearly added nothing to the team on game day. Traded. Training habits don't come into it. Gysberts- played 20 something games in two seasons. Had 2 stellar first hit outs where named best on ground in debut against the force which is Geelong. Massive potential as an extractor and possession accumulator in a team that was SCREAMING out for midfield talent. One must deduce from that that there was a problem with his attitude. Therefore poor trainer. You get traded from a club for a myriad of reasons. Moloney and Martin were traded because they didn't fit into the team. There was room for a player of Gysberts ilk yet he was traded. What do you make of that Stuie? And don't tell me we traded out a potential 200 gamer midfield gem for a VFL hardened ruck CHF linkman because Neeld values consistent B graders over potential A graders. Must be application. But please tell me how Gysberts was a hard trainer because you knew him.

Because he weighs as much as my left calf and is eons off having a body to compete in AFL. Anything can happen between now and the time he has a body to become a regular. Definition of a gamble.
