Thank goodness it's not us. I presume this is the story that's been floating around for the past month or so.

They couldn't even cheat properly!

Just amazing that recently we have had 3 clubs investigated for cheating, all in different ways.

If they are guilty I hope that they have the book thrown at them.

Sounds like Essendon are in damage control.

Requested the investigation themselves given information coming to their attention in the last 48 hours.

Robbo tweeted earlier the Hun had contacted Essendon in Nov 2013 about this and they denied everything.

Also appears a player (past?) has spoken out.

Is this why Essendon are acting now?

I bet it's TRT. Lots of issues in MMA at the moment with it. It's legal ( at least it is in the US ) to have it in your system but only up to certain levels. Once the levels go above what is permitted fighters are getting banned.

Essendon stripped of points, Watson stripped of Brownlow. Cotch & Mitchell are now joint winners!!!
