RECAP | Essendon and James Hird have lost their Federal Court case. ASADA's joint investigation into Bombers' supplements program was lawful

 

[Baltimore Jack]

Unconditional victory to ASADA

 

[Bluez Rule]

hope the bombers have some lube-all left.........

 

[mxett]

Essendon apologists everywhere on suicide watch

Stay classy

SEN 1116 ‏@SENNews now
Middleton notes he HASN'T come to the conclusion the AFL interim report was unlawful

Is that the same as finding that the interim report is lawful? Or an open legalese way of saying I haven't looked into it one way or another?

@Malfice?

The Essendon board and Hird must resign immediately. James "I am not responsible for anything" Hird would have been sacked long ago if he worked for anyone else (in any business sector) and showed such total disregard for his players or his responsibilities.

 

[AC for PM]

ASADA wins...... FATALITY.

Middleton:the court would not have framed an order preventing investigation,even if it involved using derivatives of illegally obtained info

You lost but if you would have won you would have lost anyway (in obiter)

That camera pan across Essendon's side... Perfect cinematography

Did you see the Lawyer's eyeroll to Hird... beautiful!

 

[SunshineBoy]

Ironic that 4 years ago today James Hird was denying that he was going to coach Essendon on On the Couch , and 4 years later here we are

are you shocked to be sitting there?

 

[stfan]

Well that was not just throwing it out...but a smack down!!!

 

[DAWESOME!!]

Loved that. "I don't accept or agree with anything you said. AND Even if I accepted everything you had said, it still wouldn't mean that I'd give you the outcome you wanted because all your arguments were irrelevant in any case. Now pay for the other teams lawyers."

Going to watch the meltdown on the Essendon board - should be epic ☺

[IanW]

So, I assume the Hirdites arent taking this well ?

 

[mottrain]

Asada are out.

 

[Demonalke]

Have there been any corruption allegations from EFC fans in regards to Middleton yet? (another VLAD plant no doubt)

He has absolutely smashed Essendon and Hird.

And awarded costs to boot.

 

[Remon Tea]

Cue Essendon to blame Middleton for their doping scandal.
