Mega Thread Dean Robinson's Interview [full interview in OP]

[The Karma Bus]

So who did the players side with? Hird or the weepon?

They are under investigation.. Their breath smells like Hird's...........

This a serious question?

Essendon issues a statement to deny claims by #theweapon which is then retweeted by the AFL. Sometimes you have to be seen to be impartial.

Stay classy, AFL.

The ASADA report will not be made public.

We will be lucky to get a brief summary of it.

AFL will get the full report and make their decision based on that.

Their decision will be assessed by ASADA and WADA.

yes it will, VLAD said we see the report in full to the public.

 

[FuManchu]

This is the Spike that Guaranteed the viewers that Sir James would be cleared.
We had an ASADA bloke their, but Spike knows the outcome.
Spike knows better.
Hell, why have an investigation when we have Spike there?

Is this the same bloke who upon finishing his ASADA interview came out shocked from what he had heard?

Vitamin C in big doses has deleterious effects

 

[theflea]

I heard a longneck of VB

King brown mate.

 

[ProfessorGaz]

Why would Lethal resent Essendon considering he won those premierships?

That post is one of the most fanciful leaps of logic in a thread full of some rippers.

Just after he lost the 1985 Grand Final by 78 points. It was his last game, and it ended in TEARS.

Read up on your VFL/AFL history... FOOL.

 

[The Jet From Poowong]

It is now certain essendon are in the clear and will have no players suspended or lose points

This is clear to anyone with half a brain

But far from clear to anyone with a full brain

 

[legend166]

Now in no way am I comparing the people or the situation at all, because one is clearly more serious than the other, but all the defence of Hird reminds me of how people tried to defend Joe Paterno after the Sandusky saga.

The cult of personalty can do powerful things.

 

[Barry Zuckercorn]

Carlton have a team full of them, you'd be an expert at that.

No arguments from me. And we have a total of zero druggies on our list also. Essendon on the other hand. If you apologise right now, I'll let you barrack for Carlton next year when Essendon is battling it out with the Borough and the like.

 

[Duckworth]

Did you miss the part where McVeigh said he needs to wait for the results to come out before he knows what he took?

lol. He didn't say that. He said he knew exactly what he took.

 

[Magruder]

DB ? Un-essendon like if so Jen.

That's the one

 

[QuietB]

How many times can the Bombers threaten legal action? Its a joke.

Without suing anyone

 

[theflea]

I heard Galliano.

bat grip cone?

 

[tales129]

mark 'vitamin c' mcveigh gets home tonight looks in the mirror, sweating, its okay, james said its okay. surely what dean was saying cant be true, I got over this cold so quickly. James you wouldnt lie to me would you? but you told me you loved me

 

[Fletched]

You don't find it disturbing that hird was being injected with drugs? Drugs that all be it that aren't illegal for him but as the coach you would want to be setting the example. Absolutely disgraceful

That is irrelevant

 

[Bunk Moreland]

Jake Carlisle showing how intelligent he is that he has to have his own name tattooed on his back... just in case he forgets what it is?

Fair trend across the AFL that one. Incl a couple at Carlton

 

[duckdog]

Doesn't like needles, yet is happy to get stitches and the like.

Yeaaaaahhhh nah.

Yeah i don't get stitches either... i've nearly bled out three times this year

 

[Danair]

Only watched 15 minutes of it so far.... But man Hird sounds like a real prick!

 

[ManWithNoName]

18 posts and still nobody can tell me what rules Robinson said we broke. Hmm...

 

[Jobe Watson]

Did you miss the part where McVeigh said he needs to wait for the results to come out before he knows what he took?

He didn't say that.

He said he knows what he took, and that the report will prove that.

 

[Duckworth]

Collingwood and Carlton supporters COME ON DOWN, your finals hopes are depending on the outcome of this thread. Shame it doesn't have a poll TBH.

 

[DonsRule]

No arguments from me. And we have a total if zero druggies on our list also. Essendon on the other hand. If you apologise right now, I'll let you barrack for Carlton next year when Essendon is battling it out with the Borough and the like in 2014.

I'll walk away from the AFL.

 

[FuManchu]

lol. He didn't say that. He said he knew exactly what he took.

And he's waiting for proof of what he took, in spite of knowing of what he took (scratching head now)

 

[ProfessorGaz]

You don't find it disturbing that hird was being injected with drugs? Drugs that all be it that aren't illegal for him but as the coach you would want to be setting the example. Absolutely disgraceful

I think the attack on personal freedom you just initiated is the true disgrace.

 

[johnnypanther]

After seeing McVeigh's performance, I hope Essendon, players, coaches, mgmt. get the book thrown at them.
What a farce.
