Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Lawyers stepped in?

Lawyers have been involved since the AFL & EFC got a copy of the report

On MMM this morning Eddie said that in Sydney people were saying there can be an honerable compromise where its sort of win win all round.I wonder if he knows something is afoot

I hope Brendon Gale and his team are trying to pinch Essendons sponsors. Common Benny take them to the cleaners.

And which of ours do you suggest we give the flick Ramps?

Jeep, Bingle, KooGa, one of our newbies Metro Solar?

True but...

We have Jeep who've been fantastic. Bombers have Kia. You want to poach Kia then we lose Jeep - cant have both. Also, both our majors are contacted for 2014.

We've just signed Metro Solar, Bombers have that other mob can't think of their name  :-\ we cannot bring in a direct competitor against one of our current sponsors.

Again KooGa are contracted for next year so Adidas isn't an option.

Toll sponsor the bombers they aren't going to desert the EFC seeing their newest chairman is the former owner of Toll

Happy to try and get new sponsors but we cannot/should not do it at the expense of our current partners

AFL General Counsel Andrew Dillon's update tonight on the ASADA investigation:

AFL has charged Essendon FC, James Hird, Dr Bruce Reid, Danny Corcoran and Mark Thompson in relation to the supplements program in 2011/12.

All are charged with engaging in conduct unbecoming or likely to prejudice interests or reputation of AFL or to bring game into disrepute.

Hearing scheduled to be held on Monday 26 August at AFL House.

No infraction notices issued to the players for the present time.

This is rubbish.

Wada have admitted its a banned substance, however the players aren't going to be served with infraction notices.

I don't think they will lose points now.

This is utter rubbish this is.
