For this article Caro contacted all of the clubs, a couple gave on the record comments and some didn't. What's most noticable is that there is no quote for Eddie and he has an opinon on everything  ;D

Think you'lll find that Caro as any good journo would has used the comments that will provoke the most how shall we say angst and discussion and quoted those   ;D



Eddie would never give Caro a quote about anything - hates her guts.

We don't honestly comment on our issues or make any comments at all. What could we possibly say about the EFC drugs saga?
Who cares we don't need to comment. Let's worry about ourselves foremost.

Because that pooman we have as coach is essendon thru and thru

I heard he wears EFC socks whilst he coachs our games

 :whistle

If he does he needs to be hung, drawn, quartered and for good measure eighth, sixteenth and thirty seconded. :help

You could take my boy O'Keefe path

Quote
SYDNEY star Ryan O'Keefe says Jobe Watson can't complain if he is stripped of his Brownlow Medal for drug cheating.

The Norm Smith medallist admitted he was "shocked" by Watson's revelation this week that he was injected with banned peptide AOD9604.

As debate raged over whether Watson should be allowed to keep footy's biggest individual prize, O'Keefe said the Essendon midfielder shouldn't have any recourse if he is found guilty.

"I think it comes down to, if you take a banned substance then expect the full wrath of the authority," O'Keefe said.

"I don't think you can complain if it comes your way." [\quote]


Or



Here are three examples from recent times

1.

Geelong boss Colin Carter said: “When Paul Little says he has the support of the AFL community, he shouldn’t assume he’s talking about us. “This is going to have a damaging effect on the reputation of the competition and every time the AFL pays a legal bill every one of us is paying one-eighteenth of that amount.”


2.

West Coast chairman Alan Cransberg echoed the private and public thoughts of 10 club bosses contacted on Monday when he said: “I just think it’s a bloody pity that we’re going to have at least another 18 months of this circus. At some stage you’ve got to take your right whack.” AFL club presidents have expressed serious disenchantment with Essendon and its chairman Paul Little, increasingly enraged that Little’s latest round of legal manoeuvring is holding the game to ransom.

3.

Port Adelaide’s David Koch warned the Australian sporting community and the international sporting community were closely watching the AFL’s handling of the drug allegations levelled against Essendon.
‘‘I want them to see that we are absolutely true to our values and that we are prepared to stand by the values which supposedly define us,’’ Koch said.
“We cannot fight this on technicalities; we’ve got to fight this on facts. Especially when we pride ourselves on being absolutely relentless in ensuring that our sport is clean. It doesn’t matter who individuals are or their reputations in our code – they have to be dealt with correctly.”

Carlton

''My view is that if it drags on to the point that it affects the brand of the AFL then we are all damaged,'' LoGiudice said. ''Has it gone on too long? Anything that affects the AFL brand is the time when we have an issue. I don't know what their legal strategy is and I don't know what their legal advice is but it becomes an issue when it affects the other clubs.''

What are your thoughts on Rolf, Jangsy?

But you see, it's not me, it's not my family.
In your head, in your head they are fighting,
With their tanks and their bombs,
And their bombs and their guns.
In your head, in your head, they are crying...
