Essendon face AFL probe/Players found Guilty by CAS

[tigs2011]

Big Gordo!!!

[Judge Roughneck]

Peter Gordon has just come out of the AFL meeting and spoke on behalf of the presidents of the other 17 clubs. They went and listened to the AFL and Essendon (Little) and then the 17 clubs met on their own to discuss the Essendon saga. After consideration, all 17 clubs have decided to unanimously support the AFL and its right to protect the integrity of the competition and the game.

So Essendon is well and truly on its own now.

Don't the Essendon charges stem from their own internal report? How does one challenge that?

No

It may have contributed to but it isn't the sole source just like the ASADA interim report isn't the only source

Have only just listened to the audio of the mother who was on MMM this morning

If listening to that doesn't get it through the collective thick heads and over blown egos of  Hird, Little and the EFC then nothing will

Keep Essendon saga out of the courts: clubs

THE 17 AFL presidents and chairmen – excluding Essendon's Paul Little – have called on the AFL and the Bombers to resolve their ongoing dispute without going to court.

Western Bulldogs president Peter Gordon issued a brief statement after Thursday afternoon's meeting of all club chiefs.   

"We resolved to unanimously express our support for the integrity of the AFL Rules and the need for those rules and the integrity of our competition to be preserved.

"In our view, it is of paramount importance that every effort be made to resolve these matters within the AFL industry."

All AFL clubs met with the League commission in Melbourne on Monday before the 17 other clubs met in the absence of Essendon and the AFL.

"We wish to unanimously express our confidence in the AFL Commission and AFL management," Gordon said on behalf of the 17 clubs. 

"In the meantime, we call upon all parties to exercise restraint and discretion in any public comments about this matter and with the safety and welfare of players and their families and the integrity of the game as the paramount considerations."

Not when Timmy and another parent get on radio and say everything's fine because the Club 'assured' them none of the substances were harmful  .

I noticed an error on Hird's Supreme Court writ.
In the opening section when he noted his list of achievements, he listed that he won the 1996 Chas. Brownlow medal. I noticed that he forgot to put (shared) after it.
Throw it out of court!

Barrett is claiming tonight that divisions within Essendon are opening up and it's now every man for himself. Essendon staff not happy how only certain individuals only had access to the charges and that they didn't find out the serious of it all until the AFL released the charge sheet yesterday. Essendon people allegedly not happy with Corcoran over what ended up in the charge sheet and Cocoran allegedly not happy with how certain info ended up in the charge sheet. Add to that one Essendon player's manager is allegedly seeking legal advice on where his player stands (as far as his contract) if Essendon are found guilty.

Divided they fall!

This is what their slogan for this year was referring to.

Whatever it takes (to survive by stabbing your mate in the back).

The last two lines of Hey You from the album The Wall by Pink Floyd are so apt for Tirdy.

"Hey you! don't tell me there's no hope at all
Together we stand, divided we fall."

BANNED drug allegedly administered to Essendon players has been linked to various types of cancer, an expert sports physician has warned.

Dr Stephen Brown told the Herald Sun that several internationally respected studies had found links between Thymosin Beta-4 and cancer.

He says there are concerns the drug, which stimulates cell growth and can activate "dormant" cells, may cause a range of cancers, including melanoma, and pancreatic, colon and breast cancer.

The drug may have been given to Essendon players as part of the club's 2012 supplement program, according to the AFL's case against the club, which is now the subject of a Supreme Court lawsuit by James Hird.
