The fact he was banned from playing the practice match by the afl isn't enough?

It's not proof of anything. Why not respond officially, make a statement that unequivocally rules out JD?

If he wasn't banned that would have confirmed he had a notice.. The afl wouldn't want that would they?

Because it's better to lump it on some random expendable journo.

Respond to what? Forum speculation?

Even Fairfax running with it now, but why do I bother when you guys still won't believe it. Ah well.

The best bit is knowing that when you realize that he hasn't got an IN you'll still carry the faux moral outrage that you had beforehand when you thought he had. There will never be a moment when you go, 'oh, they didn't have a 17 year old in the program so therefore it wasn't as bad as I thought it was'.

Just like when you realized the volume of injections wasn't what was reported

Just like when you realized that AOD9604 wasn't being prosecuted

Just like when you realized the list of substances was dramatically smaller than what was reported

Just like when you realized that the support staff that were using PEDs didn't include Hird

For you guys on here, the saga will always be as bad in your mind as it was first sensationally reported. Sad, really.

now im confused...you guys bag the age for what its worth and pretty much any article they print...and now you take their word for gospel - ohhhh....i do get it, it fits your narrative!!
fwiw - i have no idea whether jd has had injections...but i wont take a journos word for it...hopefully jd suits up next week and plays, otherwise the merry go round may spin out of control!!

theres a hell of a lot more to this shitfest your club is in then the few sentences youve written above - but brave effort on your behalf...kudos!

Sooooo.... Explain why he didn't play in Morwell?

onemancyclone · Mar 8, 2015

Just to put the proverbial cat amongst pigeons. What if one of the mystery support staff that received an IN was a person signing a consent on behalf of another player (for whatever reason). Some pretty good weasel room for the club to then claim that player doesn't have an IN.

JD did not receive an infraction notice. And you're asking the wrong question.

Thanks for that.
I assume you know him personally.

Jobe Watson · Mar 8, 2015

Now I kinda hope JD doesn't play next week just so I can watch you guys spin some more.

Never met him AT.

Ok. Although I doubt he received one as well, how are you so sure?

Let me ask one question first.

What was the reason given for Goddard and co. being banned from playing the Willy simulation game? (anyone who knows is free to answer, not just you).

They said that only 2012 listed players were permitted to play in the Willy game.

Why are you so sure?

The AFL ordered all players that were not at the club in 2012 to be banned from the simulation game. The problem is, JD was at the club unofficially. That's what makes it not so clear cut.

No they're not. The infracted players are suspended. They are, by definition, not available...

This is Essendon we are talking about the kings of half truths, saying one thing to make it seem like X is happening when really Y is on the go

Bongo Drum · Mar 8, 2015

No.

The reason why the AFL banned Goddard, Daniher and co. from playing the simulation game is:
The AFL stipulated they should be playing in the NAB Morwell game instead.

If the AFL believes that Joe should be participating in the Morwell game, then JD does not have an IN.

It's always funny when people say Essendon should make a statement about whether Joe has an IN or not, after saying previously that Essendon are liars and can't be trusted.

But neither played in Morwell. So that doesn't help.

If that is why you are sure, that's a bit silly.

The AFL wouldn't be forcing Joe to play in Morwell, if he has an infraction notice.

Well, no. You just don't know what you're talking about.

Amusing that you try and blame EFC for your own ignorance. lol

If they did let him play the practice match that would have confirmed him having an IN.. Could easily be an AFL cover up to protect his identity

Haha omg this is awesome. So by your logic it would also have meant that Goddard has an infraction. Herp
