He did mention that he didn't know whether if anything comes about, that sanctions may be before or after the draft.
He palmed the whole thing onto another having to make the decision.

The question stands: Why has all the other punishment been apportioned yet GWS have been left behind in this?
We must have listened to different pressers. :p

LACHIE Whitfield has been suspended for six months for breaching the AFL player rules, but the Greater Western Sydney midfielder will be able to return before the halfway mark of the 2017 season.

AFL CEO Gillon McLachlan confirmed the ban on Tuesday afternoon, which has been backdated, also announcing former GWS officials Graeme Allan and Craig Lambert would be handed 12-month suspensions for their roles in the long-running affair.
But the League is yet to decide whether GWS will be penalised with a loss of draft picks.

I gather that is resigned in the same way Jobe voluntarily gave back his medal.
I genuinely like Jobe but I don't like the way he's being portrayed by so many right now.

It's patently disingenuous and driven by agenda and wanting to be seen to be 'correct' rather than analyzing all the information.

I guess it just sounds good to glorify Jobe.......whilst not getting off-side with Tim. The term 'disingenuous' again comes to mind.

Don't know about anyone else, but this picture is almost enough to make me sick.

No wonder he looks so ******* unhappy. :(
Nah, been out of the game a long time now. Lives nearby I believe & you can't possibly teach what he had- good to see him still involved in the game.

Having to pick up discarded needles with God knows what in them before being able to train would make anyone a little grumpy.

Cotchin is a Brownlow medalist? Seriously???!!!

It makes more sense to let Watson keep it....
No, despite who he plays for or whatever people think of him as a player at least Cotchin wasn't banned for being a drug cheat. Watson was found to be a drug cheat the year he won it. Should have never been allowed to keep it the moment the was suspended, besides it also means we have to square up to Sam Mitchell and label him 'undeserving' as well and I doubt many would be comfortable doing it.

The medal was already lacking in credibility and integrity. It's just laughable now.
For me the Brownlow lost its credibility when Shane Woewodin won it 2000.
