ESSENDON assistant coach Mark Thompson says he deserves to be exonerated for 90 per cent of the offences listed on the charge sheet the AFL handed him last week.

Thompson said he was "angry and disappointed" he had been charged with bringing the game into disrepute, along with senior coach James Hird, Danny Corcoran, Dr Bruce Reid and the Bombers.
Thompson has since engaged a legal team and said he spent the majority of last week playing "catch up" and reading lengthy briefings, legal documents and transcripts on the drugs saga.
The AFL tonight backed away from a plan to hear the charges at next Monday's Commission meeting in a boost to the Dons' hopes of retaining their premiership points and playing finals.
"Who knows where it's going to go? Every day is an adventure. I had to go and find and talk to a solicitor, because I pretty much thought I wasn't included, then I was chucked in late," Thompson told Fox Footy's AFL 360.
"I was quite angry ... and I was quite disappointed that it's happened. But I'm very willing to fight and take it anywhere as long as we can go. We just don't want that on our names."
On his charge sheet, Thompson said: "Probably 80 per cent of it, 90 per cent of it, easily I'd say there's no way I'm responsible for that and I'm (not) going to accept that. Easily."
He said he was "partly responsible" for the remainder of the offences, along with other Essendon officials.
Thompson conceded Hird was spending less time than he'd like focusing on his coaching duties and said the players needed to shirk the excruciating pressure to recapture their winning form.
