ZIGGY Switkowski has completed his investigation into the Essendon Football Club with recommendations to be made public this week.

Essendon's board met Monday morning, and the AFL was briefed early in the afternoon with chairman David Evans attending AFL House to meet with AFL deputy chief executive Gillon McLachlan.

AFL.com.au understands much of the report will be kept secret because of the ongoing investigation being conducted by the Australian Sports Anti-Doping Authority.

The recommendations could include action to be taken against specific individuals involved and also force changes in club processes.

The role of key management at Windy Hill including chief executive Ian Robson, suspended fitness boss Dean Robinson and former football manager Paul Hamiliton has been scrutinised.

Further discussions will take place on Tuesday involving key Essendon figures before some details are made public, most likely on Wednesday.

Switkowski, the former boss of Telstra, was commissioned in February to conduct an internal review into Essendon’s governance practices and procedures.

The inquiry was launched by the Bombers board to provide some swift outcomes in the midst of the external inquiries into allegations of banned supplement use which continue to drag on.

ASADA is yet to interview Essendon players, with the government backed organisation’s resources stretched to the limit as it investigates allegations against AFL and NRL players and clubs.

Essendon coach James Hird was interviewed by ASADA earlier in April.
