    I think I just heard on the radio that Hird has been asked to step down and has been given 3 days?

    Essendon are fine. Didn't do anything wrong.

    That's doing the rumours, but apparently Essendon issued a statement categorically denying that that was the case (according to ABC news 24).

    Does anybody reckon Hird will survive come the end of this ordeal?

    Hird apparently resigning tomorrow.

    Where'd you hear that?
     
  8. morgieb MC Burridge

    On another forum.

    No idea if it's true mind you, but it wouldn't be surprising. Surely Hird can't be coach of Essendon next season?

    If Hird goes it pretty much guarantees that they'll be stripped of points.

    Ricciuto raised a v. good point on the radio today while chattering with an ASADA bloke. Pretty much it was said there's a long way to go in this because they're no physical proof that the players were administered AOD9604. They could believe they were, but for all they know it was just a saline injection.

    Apparently 11 players were also taking a proper banned substance too.
     
  13. Skippos SM Morgan

    I'm more and more sure that no players will be banned out of this. I doubt they'll even lose points for 'taking AOD9604' - if anything it'd just be for spirit of the game bollocks.

    nah, Knights to coach us to another VFL flag

    3AW just reported that Essendon will be stripped of premiership points, lose draft picks and incur a large fine tomorrow.

    As soon as this happens, I'm gonna post up a status along the lines of "Were Essendon really even that good?"

    Then I'll sit back and enjoy the butt tears.

    Watch as essendon losing points inevitably leads to Richmond somehow finishing 9th...
