No further punishment from the AFL.
All 5 Rookies can join the main list just like a LTI, this applies to other clubs affected also.
Essendon will be allowed an extra 10 player signings from other leagues, these players payments will go towards our salary cap but the AFL has given the club extra on its cap

I'm guessing they'll get to keep their #2 draft pick* at the end of year?



*Carlton will still finish last

We will finish last. And we will receive the number 1 pick if we do. No more sanctions from the AFL

The players pay the price now. And its a big price.



why do you feel for the players. they had plenty of opportunities to tell ASADA when they were drug tested. ASADA asked them if they had taken any supplements Not one came forward.

After reading through the full CAS brief it's very clear that the players knew what was going on and a fair bit of blame is pointed at them

IMO, Essendon should also have to include ex players in their salary cap - because the Saints, Port, Melbourne etc have to find money in the salary cap to pay for Carlisle et al's replacements.

Players at other clubs will be replaced by rookies being upgraded and the AFL will exclude their pay from the cap I believe

No decision made yet, apparently.

To be reviewed in February, when he can apparently address the Commission.

With Essendon being a sub-par side this season can we have someone else play Collingwood on ANZAC Day.

probably a stupid question but can the AFL say to the court "too bad, we are going to let them play."? :?
The death penalty can never be excused as it allows a state a means by which it can pick and choose who is fit to live and who isnt

Yeah I think so but then they obviously un sign themselves from the wada code and that may have an issue in terms of funding? Not sure really.
Read my reply. It is directed at you because you have double standards
