Bomber players could walk if they can prove a breach of contract

[compact72]

Not really breaking news, and this was said a long time ago.

Common sense really. Somebody breaches a contract, it can be nulled & voided?

Just Herald Sun trying to look important

There were all complicit and deserve their bans!!





.... Except Heppell - he was duped - Clarko patting hands on knees "here Dyson Dyson (whistle whistle)"!

Only issue with that is proving the Bombers breached their duty of care means they are serving a 2 year suspension.

Admitting they cant be certain what the players were given is enough.

Paddy thinking about it is news (if he is).

But until this year it was a messy case for the players to prove now it is a lot easier.

The Federal Court case is not just about infraction notices and Cronulla style penalties. When you look at the prospect of multiple players walking out on the club for absolutely nothing Essendon are scared stiff. Just think players confidence in club is shot, club stands by Hird, players go screw you he put us in this shit so we're walking out goes Ryder, Heppell, Hooker, Stanton, Winderlich, Hocking, Howlett and a few others. Essendon's only compensation is they've just freed up a heap of salary cap room, down side though is lose the core of their team, have to rebuild with only the same level of draft picks as everyone else. Attracting free agents will be a nightmare because only the pure money hungry players would go because they know they will be sitting on the bottom of the ladder for most of the next decade.

You would have to question anyone wanting him with a possible suspension hanging over his head. Unless he was one of the very few that didn't have any injections.

 

[QuietB]

Not really. Not having medical records is a failure in duty of care itself.

Nice little corner the bombers have backed themselves into.

If Ryder is serious surely he deals with ASADA and ends this quickly for himself?

It only takes one and the house of cards will come tumbling down.

Maybe he knows about a "deal".

I reiterate, it only takes one to fold and its all over at Hirdsville.

Expect "poor innocent players who accepted bans but were only protecting their financial security and the welfare of their family" to become "evil self serving grubby turncoats!"

 

[Sir Hugh Percy]

Every Monday when I go home
I settle down to prime-time limbo
When all the boys are gathered around
Shoutin' "Caro's on TV"!"
And though the roaches are thick on the ground
Somebody goes to close our window
Keep the noise of the city down
Get a dose of integrity

Every week, in every home
She's got wholesome news for the family
I believe, I believe, in what she says
Yes I do
I believe, I believe, at the end of the day
Her magazine'll get me through

Caro's tongue never touches her lips
She could always be my godmother
And though the desktop hides her hips
My imagination's strong
She's the sweetest thing I've ever seen
I'd like to take her out to dinner
But when I think about the places I've been
I'd probably hold my fork all wrong

Every day and every night
She's the only one we can depend upon
I believe, I believe, in what she says
Yes I do
I believe, I believe, at the end of the day
Her magazine'll get me through

To every housewife through the land
There is no-one else they can depend upon
How could I not believe what Caro tells me to

Every day and every night
She's the only one we can depend upon
How could I not believe what Caro tells me to
How could I not believe what Caro tells me to
How could I not believe what Caro tells me to
How could I not believe what Caro tells me to

Yes it's true, what Caro tells me to

Not sure what your point is, Michael Warner is on the back page of the Hun with the same story. But nah, there's nothing to see here, right?

The ridicule from the Essendon supporters will be immense.

But they don't give one stuff about the players health, the long term effects, they just expect the players to accept anything done to them in the club name and deal with the effects.

Warner is Stan Laurel to Flobbo's hardy

Will be pretty funny if this eventuates. Essendon would suddenly have a lot of unrestricted free agents on their list.

The AFL will be doing its best to stem to bleeding if it comes to that. They don't want a basket case club, especially one with as big a presence as Essendon.

All I've seen from opposition supporters is an outpouring of concern for the well being of those involved. Of course.

Get off the moral high horse.

Wrong chisel song - how about I had a club I heard it died, on a needle it was crucified...

 

[TedDougChris]

Isnt Ryder's manager the same guy who looked after Dusty Martin's welfare so well at the end of last year ???

I'm sure some Bombers supporters are concerned about the welfare of their players. Be pretty strange otherwise.

Well who knows what way it can go. According to that WADA article a few days ago, it can go either way. If the players knew what was being administered or to a degree what was happening, would make it harder to get out of the contract.

Remember AFLPA don't know what ASADA have either, so they could possible be only seeing what they have been told from Essendon & the AFL (who are trying to sweep it under the carpet)
