It's pretty simple really- if a guy gets suspended for 12 months for taking drugs then any award/medal from that year is surely taken from that player.
The AFL are gutless allowing this to go on any longer. What is there left to discuss????

The league deferred it so Jobe could hand it back himself instead of them having to make the tough call. Seriously pathetic. Unless I'm mistaken, in other sports the person who came second to drug cheats is retrospectively named the winner, why should the afl be different?

Actually the Russian bloke who's banned fro doping who beat the Aussie bloke (Jarrad Talient I think is his name) in the Walking at the London Olympics still hasn't had his medal stripped and the Aussie has been awared it retrospectively yet

I can picture a scene from the movie that will be made - Cotchum & Smitchell are having an intense discussion over the whole affair -
"Where's our preciousss?"
"That fat Hobbit has stolen it!  Stolen it from us, preciousss!"
"WATSONSSS!  I hate those stupid, fat, hairy Watsonsss!  The filthy little thievesss have stolen it from usss!  Stolen it, preciousss, they stole it from usss!"
"Come now preciousss, we must get it back!"
"But no, wait!  We can't do it, we can't wring itsss filthy little neck & take the preciousss back!"
"No, you're right, preciousss.  We can't do it ...  but we could let Her, do it ..."
"Her?"
"Yesss, the Queen Spider, She-Pegg ... she could do it.  Cotchum!  Cotchum!"
"Ahhh, yesss preciousss!  She could do it, preciousss!" 
"We feeds the stupid fat Hobbit to She-Pegg & when she kicks the empty bones & clothes out of her lair we takesss it back, preciousss!  The preciousss will be oursss at long last!  Cotchum!  Cotchum!"
"So, we are decided, preciousss?"
"Yesss, we are decided ... we let Her do it ... Cotchum!  Cotchum!" 

The rest of the saga pretty much writes itself, but Cotchum & Smitchell end up taking back their preciousss for themselves ..
                          ... the end ...

It could be an epic tale ....   ;D
Once a Tiger, always a Tiger!  Loud, proud & dangerous!

If he keeps it the Brownlow medal is basically a joke. Can't happen.

Is that the final decision or is still going through the process?

I have emailed the Victorian Gaming Commission or whatever they're called about the betting ramifications, but got fobbed off to the NT Commission which my betting agency comes under the jurisdiction of.  Have redirected my enquiry - I bet I'll get fobbed off here as well.  Doubt anyone wants to open this little can of worms ha.
