In terms of duty of care, (not the damage element perse as we do not know what the damage is/will be) one could argue Essendon are in a worse position with their employees as they had a club Dr. Players trusted that these injections would not cause horrible effects.
I spose more than anything this is my interest on this whole matter

how many games do you think the players will miss in season?

Have Dr friends who I think would have quite a different response. My best friend lost his sh&t when he read the texts between Alavi and Dank.

As to I, most of which have called it a media storm in a tea cup.
One of which is actually an ex-pharmacist who now works as a clinical geneticist.

None of them are AFL fans. There was some divide in the argument that's for sure, but the more qualified ones strangely had Essendon supporter-esque views I was surprised, thought I'd cop another pasting.
Doctors like drugs. Many abuse them too.
The newer the better. "Let's try this one..."
We shall see....
Shit player and clearly a shit bloke.

I agree with Prenders, the players should at least be compensated with 2 year holidays

I can see what he was alluding to but comments like that are fraught with danger if misinterpreted.
They're asbestos victims like James is as brave as an ANZAC.
Bit like Port lying to prospective draftees.
Do tell
Considering you like posts that link Essendon, Harvey, culture and girls drowning, I would imagine that is you who has a bit of telling to do.
Fire away
Huh??
No idea what you're talking about.
So there is no story about Port lying to recruits?
I know what it was fabulousphil
I liked a post where someone called you an angry person who carries a grudge. Your response to my liking that post is to get angry and carry a grudge.
Lol

I carry a grudge sometimes and other times not at all, like everyone.
I though your like was particularly stupid, because you seemed to just click without knowing the full history, in actual fact it has all worked out fine and I carry absolutely no grudges at all.

Presumably Prendergast drew the asbestos analogy to elicit public sympathy for the players. I wonder if he still thinks that was a good idea?
If I was one of the 34 players, I wouldn't want the AFLPA in my corner. In fact, Crameri and Prismall have already jumped ship and it's not hard to see why.

Combine ambition with not very intelligent, and this is what you get.
