He may have been a champion player and the Essendon golden boy but at the moment he is a liar and has shite all over him . Good luck wingnut i reckon you will need it , the afl should hang these cheating dogs good and proper - Hird included , you cant hide behind the golden boy image anymore Jimmy boy ... BUSTED BOY .

Must have been an archer in a previous life, long bow being drawn...

He was appointed as a dietician to Hird and others at the club, as he was to Woewodin in 2000. Should we ring Shane up and ask for the 2000 Brownlow back because he followed his diet?

I expected better from you Anchorman.
Just because someone goes for the Eagles, myself included, doesn't mean we are only wanting another club to face the music on drug charges so we can defer attention away from our club.

It is safe to say that no club is safe when it comes to skirting on the edge of the law, judging by the announcement from the Australain Crime Commission.

The AFL and other major codes need to go back to sqaure one with this issue. Almost over the AFL now.

Ha - Paul doesn't even go for the Eagles Anchorman!

Looks like a few more sports/clubs are now under the microscope.

Esserden will get a smack around the ears, but fat Andy and Batman will be sitting in a corner working out what they will do if the club is proven to be bringing the league into disrepute - "what can we do to get them off Batman"?. As much as I hate esserden, this is a tragic event. Football itself could take a big hit here. With sponsorship money hard to get, this type of media is the last thing needed. Anyone who thinks every AFL dollar lost will go to the WAFL is deluding themselves.

Its more what the ASADA decides 58, once it involves illegal drugs that the "athletes" took ( if it did) there is NOTHING essendon can do about it. Think about how Lance got stripped of his titles, the usada over rode all and sundry there too...thats why i think bith the AFL and Essendon are shyting emselves, its outta thier "controlled bubble"

Yep, I suppose you're right...be interesting to see where its gunna end. One things for sure, it's going to hurt football - probably all codes.

....so says anchor who conveniently forgets the dorkers brush with drugs....oh, that's right, it was all a misunderstanding and he was cleared.....very quickly and very conveniently???
So you've made the statement, please refresh me of the charges and and proof of outcome. Also remember that Malthouse was the head coach...not much would have got past him. Cheap dorker shot methinks anchor. Gee I hate it when the little brother gets cheeky

I still believe that it doesn't matter which club it is they should be sanctioned.
I fail to see the relevance of who was coach at the time.The questions were asked of how quickly they bulked up.Surely a football follower like you would remember that.I am only stating the truth of the matter.
Don't even begin to tar us to the same brush as the Eagles.We are not related in any way shape or form.Different fathers different Mothers doesn't make us relations.
Cheap shot!!!!!If the cap fits wear it.

Err both clubbs "owned" by the same parents i beleiev WAFC..??

Yer right again unk. Although I am a bit embarrassed at it all...the dorks are the relation you try to keep in the closet
AFL site: "Freo sponsor fined for unlawful importation".
Looking at the whole shebang, I thought the Eagles were the drug kings....appears we have a few usurpers around the country
