Yeah saw that.
There is no doubt that he will can the club for giving him the flick but id be surprised if he implicates himself in any doping saga. He would be facing a huge ban if he dobs himself in


Yes and isn't he now putting together his case to sue the club?

Correct, trying to sue us for wrongful dismissal.
If he fesses up and drops Hird in it he will incriminate himself and would not get a cent.
Probably get a lengthy ban and struggle to even gain employment again.
ASADA will hammer him, he has refused to testify claiming his ill health yet he will reveal all for cash in an interview. ASADA dont look too fondly on stuff like that

Robinson shouldn't be in fear of the drug scandal

he will get a payout for his dismissal also
Matty Wade is a star and deserves more respect from the forum family!

Is it true that Hird and his PR team have tried to implicate west coast, Geelong and collingwood in having programs developed similarly to what Dank and co did

Now that Robinson is no longer employed by Essendon, and i believe he has gone through his interview process with ASADA etc, is he allowed to come out and say what ever he wants now ???

No.
Essendon has had its legal team go over it and I believe there has been some editing.
He will still give the club a whack as he is pissed off we didnt defend him better against the allegations

Hawthorn has been on the Actovegin program for years, borderline doping but still legal I believe.

He might be happy they flicked him and paid him out two years of salary, I doubt we will ever get the true story?

The bombers are at the very least are guilty of brining the game into disrepute and like Adelaide and Melbourne should receive similar penalty.

Not according to a Bomber supporting mate of mine. According to him, the only people to bring the game in to disrepute during this are the media.

I'll bet my left nut they will lose all premership points and we'll have to play Freo in the first final. ****!!!!! I was hoping like hell we'd be up against the Bombers as it was a sure fire way of getting straight through to the Prelim.
So you've seen everything have you?
Yep

IMO I can't see points being taken away for this season anyway. Anything the AFL pass down will be for next year onwards.
