Let's see if Essendon have the balls today to remove him ... I doubt they will.

Half the board are on his side and it seems the majority of players are on his side, including most of the influential ones. Several players are threatening to walk if he is sacked
Still believe he will stay until the outcome of the SC notices is known. Obviously depends on if he is willing to cease court action.

He is tearing the club apart and must be removed. If the Board don't, and it appears that they won't at the moment, then gutless is an appropriate term.
A football club is a different place of employment than most. yes, everyone still has employment rights, but it is not unusual to sack people and pay their contracts out without the fear of legal recrimination.
Your club is turning into a laughing stock.

To me he stays until players are proven to have taken banned substances. The minute players are guilty then yes he would have to go.
