An extra 4-points from the Dreamtime game?
« on: July 02, 2013, 01:52:04 AM »
The AFL ladder could be thrown into chaos just weeks before the finals, if Essendon is stripped of premiership points as a result of the investigation of illegal supplements.

It is also possible the AFL Commission will award the beaten teams the points from each clash.

Think they should be stripped of their points (round 20 or round 21 pleaee) but don't agree with giving those points to the teams they beat during the course of the year.

Not fair on those teams that have beaten them and won the 4 points themselves

That won't happen, no chance.

A book could be written on the level on delusion, and the Social phenomena line of bullying fellow essendon fans into believing everything is going to be alright an there is no fault.

I doubt Essendon will keep points from this year.

But that was last year not this year

The investigation relates to 2012 not 2013

I understand people's angst, I really do but awarding points they've won to the teams they've beaten and then giving those who have actually beat the Bombers nothing isn't exactly fair. What happesn to teams %, are we going to alter that too?

Also, hypothetically say they do hand over the points and in doing so another team goes ahead of us on the ladder and it means we miss out on say top 4 (double chance) or a home final - not sure folks would be happy with that either

If you put PEDrug into your body - via many jabs.

maybe not legal. (drug authority in sport)

+ muscle
- fat
good for knees.


WP -> would this effects continue to the following season  :huh

Was Robinson THE WEAPON / Hird trying to get many pre-season in one into the players? -

or perhaps this is an inaccurate line of thought and the bulk up effect were only for 2012 season with no intention of continuation in the following seasons, completely...

Lose of points 12-13-2014 ? :police:

A lot of questions.

Whats unfair about Richmond getting 4 points from the bombers. Anything that benefits RFC is fair and reasonable, indeed The AFL should award us 8 extra points because we placed our champion players at risk in that game when it was unnecessary. Essendon are Scum.

Pretty sure they would be reaping the benefits of the drug this year too.
