Essendon ASADA update

[GCSkiwi]

Dont you watch Suits GCSkiwi? :P :P The first thing to do is try and squash cases before they get to court

If you can... kinda need a good reason to.

ASADA have Harvey Specter and The dons have Travis Tanner, Travis is gonna walk around smug for a while thinking he knows what's up, Harvey gets put under pressure, but you know by the end Harvey's winning the case AND punching Travis in the mouth...

I think there might be something mentally wrong with Jimmy "The Fraud" Hird, either he lacks the empathy those wall street flogheads do or he is actually mentally retarded! That pathetic wife is no better!

his wife loves the 8====D big time i heard!!

[shaker]

So sick of all this shame on Hird the Bombers the AFL and ASADA , Saad cops a hefty suspension for a sports drink and this circus just keeps rolling on , beyond caring what happens  >:(

[Cookie Monster]

If we had just said suspend us for 2 years, we would have been back by now.

Membership numbers are down a long way this year from last year. It is taking a toll. I'm not a member as I would never make enough games, but the folks at home are high mark members (most expensive package AFAIK).
I'll go to the games I can in the MCC members.

From which I receive what benefit? Sorry but I have no interest in memberships like that, the merchandise which ships with memberships I usually don't particularly enjoy and I like to choose my own merchandise to buy. I have had home match memberships for the majority of my life, and since leaving Victoria have made sizeable donations both years prior to this one - I won't this year because, yes, I'm a little disillusioned with the way this has been handled by our administration.
I will always support the team and attend matches that I can, but not necessarily the establishment until I feel as though they've redeemed themselves following this ordeal. Although they may not end up being accountable to a governing body they always will be to supporters, and I intend to exercise this.
There are clearly a number of people of the same mindset, as our membership numbers have decreased by a number of thousands on this time last year, while most other clubs are enjoying significant increases to membership numbers.

Don't shame me because I'm not a member pls.

[DazBurg]

i feel the same as Ax....well about it not being worth being a member when not in melbourne......essendon have a poor regional one
richmond have a regional one where you can attend like 5 games for $125 (probably might still not be able to make it but you get the extra with the marucie rioli club and for $295 they add
"Guaranteed access to purchase a reserved seat at the Grand Final if Richmond is participating."Access to the Maurice Rioli Room pre-match for all Richmond games at the MCG.
Access to the Victory Room pre-match at all Richmond home games played at Etihad Stadium.
Maurice Rioli Club medallion.
Country/Interstate junior members will receive a 2015 member polo+.

plus both ones weather the $125 or not
Opportunity to nominate for a reserved seat for up to two interstate Richmond games for the 2015 season (one ticket per game and subject to availability)
Priority access to purchase weeks 1â€"3 finals tickets (subject to participation).

Sadly the bombers lack anything remotely as good for regional memebers

lol but either way i lack money so probably wouldn't have it anyways
but just pointing that out ;)

Edit: sorry to go off topic of the ASADA bit but kinda related as dicussing if it affects being a member
not so much for me money does...lol

wasnt my intention to shame you was more letting you know of the option

that's the package i get it's only $50 i don't really expect benefits i'm just glad to say i'm a member and supporting the club you can even pay it off monthly

[AFEV]

Nah I was aware of the option. I have given the club plenty in the past and it isn't a matter of money for myself, I will eventually be a member again and donating to whatever they're trying to fund at the day, but at the moment I am just slightly disillusioned with Essendon as an organisation.
I'll do my best to get down for  the games I can to support my team though. Always.

Why, if they get done, then they can back date the suspension. They can't back date it if they play nab cup.

Which is why they shouldn't have let Jobe and Dustin play in the International Rules, and the Northen Territory former players play in the Northern Territory league. Could result in actual suspensions being longer.
