Round 11
Submitted by sea-kem on Wed, 2015-06-10 19:42
The Eagles to bounce back with a win against Essendoping with King Darling back in the side. Are Collingwood the new flat track bullies? Their seven wins from the bottom seven sides, imposters methinks. Well we'll find out this weekend GWS for me . And because I'm not tipping GC over the Shockers, Sydney just over North and I think Melbourne might stand up this week over the Saints.

Good to to see the peanut gallery are all in sync, where's the latest addition though? You still around Jimmy Sparks?
Happy for the young Pies to be beating up some other teams, how good are we gonna be going forward with three top ten picks still to debut and an All Australian CHB to return. Futures looking rosy at Pie land.

Definitely got a new FTB
Definitely got a new FTB team. The eagle's have all but dropped that tag. collingwood stepping up and will confirm it by not beating GWS.
Hird will be the next coach out of work... eagles will put another nail in his coffin. for some reason I reckon this will be a blow out.
Who is port playing? geelong? port for me.
Pav won't have two bad games in a row. The new pearce is a look at our future. taberner as well. The young guys to shine. freo will win.
I'd love to see north beat sydney just to get that 2 game buffer back, but I think it's unlikely. sydney.
and melbourne are definitely a better team. Dees to win.

There are seventeen teams that would kill to be 9 -1 at this stage of the season.

For once you and I
are fully in agreement.
Port
Freo
Eagles
Sydney but no sure bet
GWS - yes wobbles this is no flat track team anymore, only beating last years easy beats (see below though by 25points) - will feel a punch this weekend - and I cant wait till June 25 - Freo and the poor Wobbles have to travel over here. (Yes yes I know Im Eagles but still love Freo as 2TEAM)

Genuine question... how do
Genuine question... how do the dockers compare crowley getting done now, and johnson getting done previously - to the cousins, fletcher, chick, hunter era of west coast ?
Forget performance enhancing - because I don't think that counts in any of the situations. But in terms of "drug use" - are the 2 teams really any different now ?
(well.. lets not be naive. No team is different - it happens at ALL clubs)

What crowley has done is not
What crowley has done is not illegal. He went to a doctor and got a legal drug. The others, Johnson included, have used, or believed to have used illegal drugs.
no comparison in my opinion.
crowley hasn't broken any law except the rules of football and sport in general.
that doesn't excuse him. he still guilty, particularly of being stupid.

Randall
You are wrong. He didnt get it from a Dr, but from a mate or something like that. No Dr would give that drug (Methadone) to any sportsman unless he is a total Quack, and then risks Big time to get infront of the Medical Board for professional misconduct. Go read the report.

I,ll leave it to the experts to have their say
The AFL Players Association (AFLPA) expressed its support for Crowley after Thursday's ban.
"We will continue to provide ongoing support to Ryan during this difficult time," AFLPA chief executive Paul Marsh.
"Obviously this has not been a deliberate breach of the anti-doping code, which has been reflected by the tribunal's decision today."

I don't think that Crowley is a drug cheat. What he took was nothing that would make you play better, probably the opposite. It was a pain killer, gee, I take heaps of that and I'm not a drug cheat. I would like to see him go around again next year. I think there a job for him in the team.

Different
Is it any different to seven Lions players having a total of eighteen pain killing injections before the 2003 Grand Final? Surely that's performance enhancing.

No its not
But it is bloody stupid. Running on an injury masked by local anaesthetic means you will most likely injure that area more. For a Grand final probably understandable, but would I do it for a player, not on your life.

The asda take on pain
The asda take on pain killers is the same as giving pain relief to horses to get them through a race. it allows a player (or horse) to play (run) through an injury and enhances the risk of injury being made worst and is a risk to the player.
it's simple - it's against the rules. He should have gone to the club doctor and got something that wasn't a prescribed. even if that meant he missed a week or two afterwards.

I think his own admission is that he hasn't been playing great footy in the last couple of weeks. at least against the eagles anyway. And neither have the team. I don't think he would be challenging at the moment. But really would you rather see someone be sanction for that or the Steven may bump on rockcliff? I think the latter is part of the game and sellwoods completely unnecessary.
