The price i gave was accessed from an Ip address in australia. Australian $164 When i accessed it through an IP address in Thailand I got it in GBP, ($183 converted) Then the second time i got it in US$ from Thailand and the same price as Ozzzydom. $153US = $217AUD Does this mean that is u are in Thailand and used a service that showed an IP address in australia, you could get the package for $164?

BookMan Posted January 11, 2016 Author Share Posted January 11, 2016 As most of you know, the Swans have 4 future Brownlow medal winners in its team this year. Dan Hannebery, Luke Parker, Issac Heeney and Callum Mills. Looks like this could be the year of Dan! The Swans' running man: Hannebery reaches another levelSTAR Sydney Swans midfielder Dan Hannebery could be set to take his game to another level after finishing an impressive second behind running machine Jack Hiscox in the team's first time trial of 2016 on Monday. Hiscox and Hannebery beat home defender Dane Rampe, and midfielders Dan Robinson and Harry Cunningham in the Swans' post-Christmas 3km workout around the Centennial Parklands in warm conditions. Former under-age national 800m champion and Swans' academy product Hiscox has dominated the club's endurance testing since arriving in 2014, but it's the effort of gun midfielder Hannebery that would have coach John Longmire rubbing his hands together. In the Swans' first time trial in early December - again won by Hiscox - Hannebery failed to finish inside the top five, but has returned from the Christmas break in fantastic shape. http://www.afl.com.au/news/2016-01-11/the-swans-running-man-hannebery-reaches-another-level 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barring a successful legal challenge, Port Adelaide will be without their ex-Bombers Paddy Ryder and Angus Monfries for the relevant period , while the Bulldogs will lose Stewart Crameri and St Kilda and Melbourne will be deprived of recruits Jake Carlisle and Jake Melksham respectively. Essendon will be without Watson and many of their premier players, such as Dyson Heppell, Michael Hurley, Cale Hooker, Michael Hibberd and Brent Stanton, along with Travis Colyer, David Myers, Tom Bellchambers, Heath Hocking, Ben Howlett and Tayte Pears. Exactly half of the 34 are no longer playing AFL football.

BookMan Posted January 12, 2016 Author Share Posted January 12, 2016 (edited) Essendon drugs scandal: Mark Robinson says banned Bombers will have to deal with drug shame for rest of their lives MARK ROBINSON Herald Sun January 12, 2016 10:45AM THE 34 Essendon players are drug cheats, a fact they will have to live with for the rest of their lives. It is a brutal reality. The club undertook a drugs program and the players followed like blind sheep. Those at Essendon should feel ashamed because the players have been held to account for what goes into their body despite the players placing all their trust in Essendon officialdom. The Court of Arbitration for Sport, however, laid the blame at the players. They are responsible, it said. Clearly, the blame should lay heavily on everyone at Essendon. All of them. Then Essendon chairman David Evans and his board. The coach James Hird and his staff. And Stephen Dank and Dean Robinson. Through their actions, the players have lost careers and reputations. The three-year nightmare has become a four-year hell and a lifelong sentence. Dank, Robinson, Hird and everyone else involved can disagree, but this decision is final. They too, have to live with their decisions and they will receive no sympathy. It came, in part, because the players did disclose what and when they received injections and pills on the necessary forms. That is the responsibility of the athlete. It points to a shoddy and irresponsible environment at Essendon and one that lacked total professionalism. The decision to sign consent forms and keep secret the regime also went against the players — this despite the club demanding it. The decision to give the players 12 months will cripple the Bombers, savage the 2016 season and almost certainly set off a chain of legal action from the devastated players. The financial toll could run into millions. The Bombers will be the target and so will the AFL. Also suspended are players at other clubs, including Patrick Ryder, Angus Monftries and Jake Carlisle, which derails their clubs. The club officials would be livid. The future of Jobe Watson is a major concern. Will he sit out and return for the 2017 season or will this morning’s announcement drive him from the game? The AFL will have no alternative than strip Watson of the 2012 Brownlow Medal. It happens all over the world when doping violations are proven. It’s just another kick to the head for the skipper. It would be a scene of utter devastation at Essendon today. Bombers chief executive Xavier Campbell had addressed the players yesterday and contingency plans had been outlined. He did not expect this outcome, however. Comprehensively cleared by the AFL’s anti-doping tribunal earlier this year, the CAS decision is a complete about face. It is mystifying how two separate hearings could return two staggeringly different outcomes. The players did not return positive tests, but clearly the evidence of a lack of duty from the players overwhelmed the CAS panel. The carnage that will now rain down on the competition will be unprecedented. Hindsight is a cheap option, but the players taking a deal was probably that best option, although very few people would’ve predicted today’s outcome Edited January 12, 2016 by BookMan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How they got their investigation so wrong and exonerated these players. 2. That Jobe Watson will be stripped of the Brownlow Medal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hindsight's always 20/20 and some of the boys should've taken the deal and told Hird to get <deleted>... If Watson is stripped it will most likely become "2012 - Jobe Watson* *stripped of medal in 2016" Expect Essendon to be bankrupt by the end of the year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All i can say is it took too long to come to this, Hird should hang his head in shame and along with the previous board should do a hari kari tonight, they have killed a once powerful club, Woosha must be a dill, his karma at work here chaps.

If there 12 players down i guess the afl will give some concessions,Woosha is getting paid baby sitting duties.

Too much risk for other clubs, including injury to the player Essendon just have to accept their fate and rue their decision to not to take a 3 month deal In hindsight. I'd question why the AFL has to be governed by WADA at all. I'm pretty sure the NFL in the US is not governed by them 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
