WHOM do you think the 'secret payments' went to ? the caterers or the cleaners  :roll:

Why the "all for nothing"

We won the Premierships. You know that. I know that. The cleaning lady knows that.

End of story  :D

Oh that is the quote of the day! Nice to see a sense of humour still exists despite the HUGE penalty - a bit excessive in my eyes, one year (This year) would have been bad enough, but 5 YEARS when the perpetrator has moved on:??!!! Whoa!

So many mixed emotions right now.  I don't even know if I should bother going this weekend!  I want to support the players - but for the rest of the club who are responsible and the NRL - my hatred is growing by the minute!

i dont really care aabout taking the premierships back and the fine.... the cant take a winning feeling away... its only from the record books.... its this year that is stupid - playing for nothing.

The club is dead i reckon... wont be able to keep the players they have, memberships will drop, plus the fines to pay and ...prizemoney

Personally i am glad i didnt buy a membership this year (due to the crazy increase in prices) ... i might still go for my kids on Sunday but after that i cant see the games being much fun!...

Back to Essendon !

Fine then, Bourbon. Every single player on the entire roster for the last 5 years knew all about it. Happy?

It's just like my workplace, I know exactly what every workmate is getting paid. Not just my department but the whole organisation.

This isn't about the supporters, the players, the football department. This is the admin!
