Isn’t there a lot of money riding on this?

Didn’t Essendon out itself? This article reminds me of my Grandad’s favoriate saying “if you saw it in the street you’d step over it”…

I think there is more than enough stinky stuff to warrant the press conference, assuming all these apologists like Crook dont win the day. Interesting name that…

This was written by an Essendon supporter?! I never would have guessed. Please Crikey, could we have at least someone with objectivity writing articles about this issue. If I want partisan football supporter gibberish there’s plenty of AFL fan forums I could visit, but I choose not to.

“Disclosure: Andrew Crook is an Essendon supporter”.

No, really? Couldn’t tell…

I’m going with Gerard Whateley on this one. Check out Offsiders from last Sunday and you’ll see what I mean.

I am certainly no Essendon fan but this media circus and the gravely nodding commentariat who are blindly throwing mud are a disgrace. If there are accusations to be made then make them & show us the evidence. Everyone is being tainted - most of them I think unjustly.
However if you could have dragged Collingwood into it then I’d be less concerned.
