Dear God!

"Win at all costs"??

This is onnnnnnne sick club :-+ and Hirdy boy wasnt poppin harmless vitamins Xman you confused buffoon!

Doesn't look good for the bombers must say

Yes phelpsy, you're right. A nice level head on ye for an AFL fan, good for you!

This is quite an exciting thread I must say. Dave's premonitions seem to be coming true, albeit a bit late...he suggested this would happen about 3 weeks ago.

Fascinating stuff. Poor xman though, we must think of him in this crisis. For over a decade he has worshipped hirdy like he was a god. Unfortunately though ol hirdy looks more like the type of god AFL fans refer to as gary ablett. We can laugh together folks, and yes we must, and we can laugh at Xman too, and yes we must...but please while you're not laughing at this poor sod who's desperately waiting for his guilty god to be let off the hook and given bail by the crooks down at AFL hq, please take a small moment to think a thought for how deluded and confused our Xman must be feeling right now...then laugh at him some more

And today I have been through the AFL drug code. There is a very strong argument that is does cover James Hird, and in fact any official of a club.On this, the AFL drug code is unequivocal in that it applies to officials. Page eight says it applies to officials. Page five describes what an official is: “An official means coach, trainer, manager etc.”

not at the moment but it depends on what you read and who you believe, its the same deal as the Crunulla sharks, where is the proof of anything taking place illegal taking place, its all allegations & hyped up stories to make head lines & grab peoples attention, so until we hear of the reports from ASADA and the Ziggy Switowski, everything in is just rumors and allegations. but hopefully buy the end of it nothing wrong has been done & the bombers & Crunulla Sharks get to have their day in court & brainless reporters Caroline Wilson & Patricks Smiths & Co are held responsible for contentiously printing BS to grab a headline

Tidy work rabbit.

"Who cares" if hirdy's poppin pills and drugged up to the nines said Xman

Looks like some important folk are gunna have to be carin about this now.

Just some more on Big Andys tune changing in today's Melbourne media:

He describes the accusations against James Hird and Essendon as "very serious allegations... I can't think of anything more serious."

"As a parent and not just as the CEO of the AFL, the issues as reported surrounding the potential use of various substances ... are disturbing, very disturbing..."

Hird took legal supplements....where is the issue?

He didn't supply players with the supplements he took. He's within his rights to take medications that are banned for athletes by WADA.

Secondly, people are taking Danks words as truth. Hird is denying these claims, so its one word against another. Wait for the investigation first.

So Neil Mitchell could argue that James Hird has broken an AFL code of ethics. Hird right now would be quaking in his boots about that fine he might get from the AFL for that one.

a fine ?



if he were in the NRL he'd be run out of the game for life ....
this being the difference between these organisations

one is full of integrity & a sense of what is acceptable behaviour & what needs to be eradicated

the other
is the VFL

And unlike the NRL the AFL will actually wait for Hird to defend himself rather than believing a guy like Dank

the VFL will wheel this out of its punishment drawer ... a wet one of these for a darn good thrashing




VFL .. soft on drugs
