Who has more questions to answer?

[NlolRL]

The question is did they know what he was doing at the time or not until after? if they knew did they play an active part in it?

[TLPG]

I need to address what Enarelle said, by pointing out that many at Essendon didn't know until virtually the eve of the day they self reported as to what was going on. So I wouldn't be blaming everyone in the front office or even the back office for that. Someone was being a.......oh I can't think of the word, but anyway someone was stopping the problem from getting out by deleting information. That's from memory at the time that the question was first asked as to why they didn't know until they self reported. Someone within the club was playing games. The other point was that Dank was a salesman, and he sold his nonsense to someone in the club. He did that to the other clubs as well (AFL and NRL). Essendon through that same someone bought it.

As a result, the only question Essendon need to answer - and I think they would want the answer themselves - is who hid Dank's actions from the board? It would be easy to say it was Hird or the other guy (can't think of his name as I type this) and if I had to give my opinion I would go with that other guy.

But the bottom line is this. Dank is a drug dealer. He is a crook. He has hurt Essendon and badly, and that's the main reason why I think he's got the most questions to answer.

Second, on what Wookie said, I think the only reason we haven't heard from the NRL or Cronulla is that they shut up shop awhile back. Totally the opposite to what the AFL and Essendon did. Now whether or not that costs them is something we'll have to wait and see about. I think I addressed the rest of Wookie's comment in what I said to Enarelle.

The only problem with the "Essendon didnt know what was going on part" is that they did know. They fired Dank in 2012, and rumours about Essendons program abounded from 2012 as well. Damien Barrett had been working on the story for at least a month before it became public. Its my belief that the Commission was aware of irregularities at Essendon well before they were announced, and that this is why Evans was called by Demetriou to warn him - not because of any specific threat in the ACC report, but because the Commission was already aware of issues there.

Yes but there were still too many people at Essendon who didn't know the specifics, particularly at board level, because of that effort to hide them from the board - warnings disappearing etc etc. The firing of Dank couldn't have been about this specific issue. It had to be about something sort of related, and Dank couldn't contest it because it would have blown up in his face and the whole thing would have blown up a lot sooner and he knew it. He's a manipulative bastard. Most drug dealers are. I'm certain there was a mole (that's the word I was trying to think of last night) helping him and hiding that stuff. Was it Robertson? Was that his name?

The Dank sacking would have been the reason why Demitriou spoke to Evans. Andrew would have been aware of it.

Well on the basis of their jurisdiction I think the AFL thought HIrd did, hence the suspension he copped - and I think Hird's position is he didn't know, and likewise his wife hence all the legal wrangling over that.

Talk about head in the sand.

Those who think the top level at essinbong didn't know are either stupid or in denial.

ASADA don't need Dank (& I think they know he wasn't going to be easy to get)
All they need is those around him to spill the beans.


You are so obsessed with me (glad RD is getting a break from the stalking ) that you cant think or post rationally.

Get help son.

[NRLCrap1]

You need help because you WERE talking shit! They do need Dank because he's at the bottom of the whole fricking thing!!

The AFL, they have their supposed 3 strike policy LMFAO and yet they never ever seem to bust anyone for anything.
