Yeah. He seemed pretty much straight off the shoulder and up front so who knows where it goes now?

The media does go overboard with certain scenarios.

From the ACC conference Monday however they seemed to declare war on a certain team and that the coaches knew exactly what is going on. So far this does not look good on Essendon as they seem to match all of their allegations to date. I can't believe how a proffesional club could be this stupid in modern times. I really hope this is blown up.....

If it matches the ACC findings and it's as corrupt as the findings suggest is there a possibility that Essendon could be bannished from the AFL for longer than 2 years for bringing the game in to disrepute?

Sure did ... he's either telling the truth or is bullshitting big time and is going to try to bring everyone else down with him.

His 'business dealings' outside of Essendon seem fairly dodgy though.
Dunno, I’m just an idiot.

To be honest I thought it reeked of a predetermined cover up... I thought it was mighty convenient that the coaches were on the juice - thus giving the club an excuse for them to have purchased the prohibited substances, if in fact they did.

Do you think that they would go thru with a program with this degree of complexity and not have a cover story worked out if things went pear shaped.

If the coaches were on the gear it would make sense why Bomber pushed out the last strength and conditioning coach for "philosophical reasons".
It's all the SANFL's fault.
