Cheering for an injured player (or an umpire for that matter) is a horrible thing and I would look badly on all who do such a terrible and heartless thing.mmmm, yes.....they'll be queuing up based on that - Swans could have won that by 100+ if they didn't take the foot off the pedal.
I actually think North should be very happy with their year, as should Essendon - of course we'll have to settle for having Heppell whilst we watch with envy knowing we could have had Atley, but all jokes aside both sides are about 2 free agents and a couple of young guys having a break out year away from being a smokey of a challenger.
Enjoy laughing about an endless off field issue that damages both the dons and the code we all love (and that very much includes the smaller clubs and their revenue), and enjoy laughing at how drawn out and damaging this has been/is for our game.
Today's verdict does nothing but put us back to exactly where we were 7 weeks ago, and now we very slowly all move forward again.....cheering for that is akin to cheering because a player is injured and awaiting a stretcher (which says a fair bit more about the people cheering than the injured player imo).
Enjoy.
Cheering for the demise of a football club who abandoned protocol and injected players with dangerous substances, with unknown detrimental effects, to get a leg up on the competition is more in the noble category. The players are victims, I look forward to seeing more players abandon ship in the future. As for last night, we got obliterated by a side who was rested and pumped, and a few years further into development than we are. It is still a successful year. Enjoy the offseason, credit to you for showing up here.
