Saint's say G'day and then they say lets all get drunk, take our clothes off and do anything we please.

A laugh a day keeps the doctor away - thanks KT31 for my daily dose !!

Sometimes it's hard to wonder why we always play by the rules and are a solid citizen of the comp.

We have integrity. I'm proud of the way our club goes about things. I think we are great bunch of people with very solid values. The way it should be

Often, when you have the character and integrity to do the right thing, you suffer for it. That's what makes it all the more respectable.

Agree BAS, it just adds to the value of a flag which wags. There will be no doubt that the win was ours and ours alone.

Let's not get on too high a horse with regards this issue.

Little is fast becoming the most despicable President since Big Jack. At least you could get a laugh out of Jack or laugh at him.

Adelaide Crows say hello

Right there with you T&T!

Has thumbing their nose at the AFL actually gotten Essendon anywhere in the last decade?

Re: Essendon dances to its own tune...again.

The Essendon FC Board is ultimately responsible for its current predicament. To allow the ego of James Hird to run rampart has greatly dented the reputation of one of the League's most powerful clubs. Paul Little, the new Essendon President to then turn around and give Hird a further 2 year contract after his 12 month suspension beggars belief. This once proud club is now reeling from what has been an absolute disaster. Clubs like Hawthorn and Geelong through strong leadership and governance has highlighted that nothing replaces character and integrity.

Well said NBP

Very well put NBP. It seems that they took doing "Whatever it takes" a little too literally. Integrity is priceless and with blokes like Peter Gordon and Brendan McCartney leading our Club we are in great hands.

I had the very VERY unfortunate displeasure of spending a few microseconds this afternoon with a highly deluded Essendon supporter.
So, in a nutshell.....

James Hird never did anything wrong. He's an EXTREMELY intelligent man, everything they took was legal WHEN THEY TOOK IT. But then the rules got changed............
It's all Demetriou's fault and he'll be gone by the end of the year.

Just absolute spew up, cult mentality material.

I was at a child's birthday party, and rather than listen to the drivel, I volunteered to be the guy minding the front gate to make sure the kids didn't run on the road.

(There were no kids in the front yard at the time)

And no kids ran on the road. Just an everyday Aussie hero!
