Watch the footy show last night? Sam did a quick survey of all that were on the panel (including Boomer Harvey, Crawford, Lyon, Brayshaw etc etc) and asked them a simple question - "do any of you think Essendon cheated?" Answer from all of them was an emphatic "NO".
Food for thought, hey.
Case closed, your honour.

A TV show says so.

Yet case closed re players unable to play finals with no evidence of player's cheating? What's the sillier?

I don't watch the show.

I didn't realise Boomer, Crawford etc were on the AFL Commission/apart of ASADA, because that would make their opinion relevant.

Well done Port Adelaide on a tremendous season. Unfortunately we had Geelong for the taking last night but they proved why they are such a good team in the second half to storm home with the win. While I know they missed a lot of shots and the game could have been over, there was a few questionable umpiring decisions which changed the swing of the match. Hawks will be shitting it now though. Lets back it up next year boys. Ps westhoff's goal was amazing.

And the AFL commission havent found evidence of Essendon players cheating either.

Sydney v Geelong would be a great contest, but Hawks v Freo looking odds on.

Sydney are not much of a chance this week. I have been to watch both teams this year (smash Carlton) and Freo looked much much better. Would take something monumental from Sydney to get up...

Hawks v Geelong game. Too close to call, if it rains, Hawks might be in trouble.

How does an umpire call advantage when the player who takes the mark has the ball taken out of his hands by the opposition? That one just before three quarter time was bizarre.

Well done hawks! Finally won a game. It's funny that hawthorns last two wins against geelong have been in extremely important games whereas geelong have just beaten hawthorn mainly in home and away games. 11 straight counts for fuck all now. Hawthorns last two prelims should have been over if they knew how to kick straight. A freo hawks grand final will be interesting if freo get through. Should be a good match tonight.

think Freo will win tonight but cant see them getting up against a finals hardened Hawks next week...but you never know!!

The umpires last night were disgraceful once again. How can a mark be paid, the be denied allowing Geelong to go down the other end and score? It should have been a ball up if anything as stated in the rules. And the out on the full off a Geelong player in their F50, given initially as on the full then reversed and given a throw in, once again allowing Geelong to score a crucial goal. Very dodgy umpiring, blatant cheating is how it comes across. And that rat Selwood, ducking EVERY BLOODY TIME :oops: :oops:
