Hey come on man. You left out West Coast and Ben Cousins references!Never. Blues still get paper bags jibes even though everyone was doing it. North will never shake tassie and GC relocation jokes, we could win the next 3 flags and still cop 9th jokes, a tarp will always be the port Adelaide number 1 ticket holder, any time Collingwood loses a final it’ll be a case of the colliwobbles, same situation for Geelong is due to them being handbaggers. Football fans have long memories when it comes to misdemeanours by opposition clubs.
Oops. Fixed.Hey come on man. You left out West Coast and Ben Cousins references!
It won't be diminished because we don't give a sh*t.Sadly, it’s a no win situation for the club. If they had just admitted complete culpability back when it happened, they had a chance to move forward.
Now, really any success that’s had that features a single player from that era will be diminished.
Nope, I for one already educate the kids on the saga. We need to make it eternal.The saga will stop being mentioned when this generation of opposition supporters dies out.
I highly doubt any Essendon supporter truly cares. That's in the past for us.Some essendrug fans care a lot when you discuss these matters with them in public

When the club and supporters actually acknowledge what they did wrong. Criminals don't get parole unless they admit guilt and Essendon don't get redeemed unless they actually admit they are guilty and that it was their fault in regards to what happened in 2013 to 2015.Was just on the Port board reading through their autospy thread where the usual "Essendrug" comment was raised. It made me wonder at what point will they ever be redeemed and throw off that moniker?
Now?
Never?
When no member from the "supplements" scandal remains in the senior list?
Do we?When they actually admit fault.
They still try to play the blame game
Every time it's brought up it's blame the AFL for warning them...Do we?
I don’t follow the media much (if at all) but as far as I can tell the club has just shut up shop about it
Do you have any examples of official club media releases over the past 12 months stating as such?Every time it's brought up it's blame the AFL for warning them...
I guess they're right. If the AFL didn't warn them, the records don't get shredded
The promised land? Where everyone gets a fake tan and random boners?When James returns to lead us to the promised land
