I would have though the only reason they were convicted dated back to the ill considered decisions they made back at that time.

We won one without him this year and there is every chance we could again next year. Not a guarantee by any stretch. His whole career will have an asterisk on it and rightfully so
I didn't trade for him, nor do I condone what he did. You are calling me out and implying hypocrisy for simply being a victim of consequence, whilst spruking the achievements of a known cheat on the other hand.
He IS a drug cheat. In fact there are a few still kicking around at Essendon. Just because you probably think it's "disrespectful" to label him a drug cheat, doesn't mean he isn't one.

Lol take your rose coloured glasses off bud.
Watson and the rest of the Essendon players from 2012 are drug cheats.
They cheated...........
Did who ever came 2nd to Armstrong sue for lost income?

Wow, you don't get out much then Bunk, pretty all supporters, apart from a few Essendon stalwarts consider him a drug cheat and do you know why, because he is a convicted drug cheat, pretty simple really unless your a nuffy.

You mean when WADA laughed at the AFLs kangaroo court and took the same process they would have for any other sport?
I suppose you could call that an appeal, but more realistically, the AFLs 'process' was merely delaying the normal course of the prosecution.

The one's they were found not guilty of and then were appealed against.....
Look I am not here to debate this, its been done to death, but old mate carrying on about Essendon's appeals making it drag on for so long is a bit silly considering they never initiated the first appeal.

Please tell me you make legal decisions as stupid as the one you are suggesting in the real world.

What a legend.
Hopefully they now give it to the rightful winners.

This could all be just for PR though, perhaps the AFL have said just say you'll hand it back.... but you'll really get to keep it under your bed son.

What? You want to be the guy that accepts it second hand? Please, they'll knock it back. Not only would they look like a pair of flogs celebrating 4 years after the fact, there is an unwritten code that that just isn't the done thing.
