I find it hard to understand that any parent would let their child go to this club given the experimental drug cocktails they were given. I just hope in years to come serious health issues don’t kick in to the effected players. Essendon are a disgusting club, I hate them more than the pies.
To be fair - the salary cap and drug cheating thing (which are both abhorrent) are the least of their issues. They've just completed a club wide review that's focused solely on ONLY the football side of the business but not the administration side. And it's the administration side of the business that's clearly inept. That's the side of the business that thought the 9% salary cut email was a good idea, the side that thought the coaching transition idea was good; the side that hired the recently sacked Dan Richardson. Yep - that side of the business doesn't need review at all.

As for young Jye ... yeah/nah - f *ck that guy. He's an adult. Actions and consequences and all that ...

Caldwell grew up in Bendigo - family still there?? - so I am guessing part of the selling point was that Tullamarine is a lot closer to Bendigo than Moorabbin even if Moorabbin is a lot closer to flag than Tullamarine

Seems to me a lot of mummy boys are playing in the AFL ...... especially Geelong way 8-)

They will feel it next winter.
In preparation for...
Their permanent transfer to New Zealand
...and Windy Wellington..
New Zealand would think they had an airforce with the bombers based there.

(New Zealand has zero combat aircraft, it is said New Zealand airforce is based in Australia, anyone invades New Zealand the maoris will poke their tongues out again).
