#BREAKING: Jobe Watson has decided to hand back his 2012 Brownlow Medal. More soon:

Onya Jobe.

 

[boncer34]

The right decision. Well done Jobe.

 

[Jobe Watson]

A man of honour and integrity.

Doubt it was his decision. I would put money on him being told it was going to be taken away and the AFL gave him the chance to look like he has some dignity.

 

[The Gov]

Good on him, right decision but it wasn't him who let the club or himself down. Will still be remembered as the best player that year regardless.

 

[Quivorir]

Pushed into making a decision*

 

[Senor Ed]

The right decision... well done Jobe!!

Finally someone shows some integrity

Good bloke.

[Moist Biscuit]

Was inevitable.

 

[TedDougChris]

Good to hear, very sorry for him but it had to be done.

 

[2006_Eagles]

So will West Coast's own Sam Mitchell get one now?

 

[Jack Bradley]

Im glad - would have tainted the browlow to have a drug cheat holding one.

 

[Tiges1229]

so brave

 

[Hawkers]

Still a cheat.
Should have handed back when he was found guilty

 

[Jack Bradley]

The right decision... well done Jobe!!

Finally someone shows some integrity

Good bloke.

If only he had some integrity when juicing on the roids

 

[jakefooty23]

Trent Cotchin... Brownlow Medalist...

 

[HawkMongrel]

"decided to"
"opted to"

That he had a choice in any way is why the AFL is a joke.

 

[ZergMinion]

It's over. It's finally over. Congrats Jobe for making the right decision. I look forward to only disliking you when you're toweling us up on the park.

 

[Gunplay]

Of course he did, being a drug cheat he couldn't have kept it even if he wanted to.

 

[jwint43]

sam mitchell finally gets one. I hope he accepts it

 

[Cadillac]

Finally we can OFICIALLY put this to bed. It's over. And thank **** for that.

 

[Jade]

Doubt it was his decision. I would put money on him being told it was going to be taken away and the AFL gave him the chance to look like he has some dignity.

And you'd lose your money.

Gave it back of his own volition.

 

[brahj]

Congratulations Trent, finally getting the credit you deserve.

 

[Cainozz]

So what happens now? Are Cotchin and Mitchell awarded a medal each?

 

[Bunk Moreland]

Is there anyway one can be given to Cotchin, but not Mitchell?
