When you have pregnant partners wondering if their children are going to be born deformed because James pushed a program to the edge ignoring his own club doctors advice you can then only look like the biggest piece of garbage on the planet if you bring the lawyers in and hold the AFL to ransom with threats of court to clear a name that is forever tainted no matter the penalties

Unbelievable to think this comes from Mr Clean, just shows you never know what lurks inside people

That's a great quote/post

Going to be a really difficult match. Either Essendon will come out with all guns blazing or will produce a really limp effort. Would prefer a hard match to get us prepared for finals

I wouldn't worry too much .....game will mean as much as the NAB cup.

However nobody wants to lose twice to Essendon in one season.

Preview: Bombers v Tigers
By David Schout

SUMMARY

After one of the most turbulent off-field weeks in the game’s history, Essendon will get their final chance to let their football do the talking on Saturday night against the Tigers. Last week’s stirring comeback win over Carlton showed the spirit missing from a torrid four-week run of losses. For the Tigers, Damien Hardwick will want to gather some momentum before week one of the finals – their first September appearance since 2001. Last Sunday’s demolition of GWS was vastly different from the atmosphere they will be thrown into in the coming weeks and the Tigers should benefit from a tougher hit-out.
