There is no irony.

Rfc not good enough to beat eighth best non drug cheating team

Carlton = Eighth best non drug team & Second best cheating team in 2013.

ESSENDON has launched legal action and demanded an apology from Carlton CEO Greg Swann after he labelled the Bombers "cheats".

Cheats? Cheats?! How dare you call us drug cheats!

We are only governance issue cheats! Governance. Not drugs. Natural justice. Human rights.

Both smug clubs caught at one time or another rorting the system so no sympathy for either of them :chuck.

:huh3

I've never advocated cheating/rorting. I never said we should break the rules. I said at the time we should've used the stupid draft rules back then to our advantage (ie. by gaining extra priority picks) once it was clear our season was over and we had no chance of making the finals. Not caring about winning when there's nothing left in the season to play for and playing the kids to prepare for the following year isn't cheating. Most clubs in that situation do it. Yep we should be so devastated we got Cotch and Rance for the next decade when instead we could've won a meaningless round 22 game against St Kilda back in 2007 :lol [ps. not saying we tanked that day but as you saying al the Club cheated/rorted the system because Plough didn't make any moves in the last 10 mins once we grabbed the lead before losing it?]

Cheating/rorting is systematically breaking the salary cap rules as Carlton did; cheating/rorting is systematically using drugs that are outside the WADA code and/or not approved by Therapeutic Goods Administration for human use as Essendon did. Breaking the rules is cheating/rorting.

tanking is deliberately losing. that is cheating/rorting the system.
LOL at the wallace example. its a indictment on the bloke that he would rather risk being labelled a cheat than incompetent.

what about the multitude of other games that he didnt make match winning moves in?

who says we bent the rules, the afl, you?

your trying to say what we "may have or may have not done" is along the same lines as players getting injected with unknown substances or blues rorting the cap.

Freo they must have cheated too because they rested 12 players. Please your clutching mate, let it go

Leather face was and still is not a bright football mind so doubt even if he wanted to would pull something like that off.

All the average football supporter wants is to see his/her club have a crack at it week in week out.We want to see 100% effort,we want to see youngsters given a chance and then watch them develop.And it the end we want our club to  climb the pinnacle on a solid footing of blood ,sweat and tears.All this other rubbish of  tanking,salary cap rorting,use of peptides and other unknown substances is all foreign to us.
As a youngster we were told, head over the ball and at it ...just  give  us back our game  ya Bozzos

Is a systematic banned PED injection program equally as 'bad' as tanking or salary cap cheating?

Shoplifting and rape are both crimes. Are they equally bad and should be punished the same?

Do you agree in life there is different severity of wrongs?

If a Palestinian throws a rock is it the same as a Israeli tank shooting?

100% correct

But it seems we are a minority
