looking for other opinions. i am pretty sure essendon have nothing to worry about, the AFL have already come out and said the dons will be keeping it.
i just see it as inherently unfair, the bombers will have a side capable of playing finals next year IMO.

 

[DHepp21]

No

 

[Whowants2know]

Yes please

 

[DHepp21]

The fact that the Lions won 3 premierships in the 2000's and then self inflicted there demise, I don't think either deserve it.

The Bombers were kicked out of finals and stripped numerous draft picks. Massive punishment that happened years ago. You can't just decide to punish a club again 3 years later just because you don't feel the original punishment was harsh enough.

lions- self inflicted yes but still legal.

bombers- self inflicted yes but illegal.

Try telling that to a bombers supporter, they think they are playing finals next year lol

beg to differ, i would have put them back to the first pick after the non-finalists this year.

 

[Ceanag]

No they definitely don't deserve it ...... however seems like they will get it if they finish bottom so ..meh ..
I don't think they will play finals though .. I believe it will take time for the team to gel and for the players missing this year to start playing consistant footy again..I predict an up and down season for the bombers with a middle of the table finish.
