Looks like we've found the 26 vials of the bad s**t, and just in the nick of time:
New Drug and Two More Clubs in AFL Doping Saga

It appears Danks charges include administering TB4 and Hexarelin to EFC players, while 34 players only have a TB4 charge against them.
Dank also charged with trafficking CJC (and more?) to Gold Coast Officials and a Snr member Carlton coaching staff.
For those that dont have access, do we know what this new drug is?
New drug and two more clubs in AFL doping saga

THE AFL doping scandal is wider than previously revealed, with ASADA accusing Essendon players of taking a second banned substance and sports scientist Stephen Dank of trafficking peptides to club officials at the Gold Coast Suns and Carlton and covering up doping by a Gold Coast footballer.
An outline of ASADA’s case and other documents currently before a specially convened AFL tribunal allege that Dank supplied banned substances including human growth hormone to a Carlton coach and provided the banned peptide CJC-1295 to more than one official at the Gold Coast Suns.
Dank is also accused of covering up the use of CJC-1295 — the substance at the centre of the Cronulla doping case — by Gold Coast defender Nathan Bock.
ASADA has not initiated proceedings against Bock, who retired from the AFL earlier this year.
Despite ASADA’s belief that Essendon footballers were given Hexarelin as well as the banned peptide Thymosin Beta-4 during the 2012 season, doping charges against 34 current and former Essendon players relate only to Thymosin Beta-4.
The involvement of three AFL clubs and multiple banned substances in the ASADA case is revealed in an outline prepared by ASADA’s senior counsel, Malcolm Holmes QC, and an ASADA charge sheet issued against Dank.
In both the case outline and charge sheet, ASADA alleges that Dank administered Essendon footballers with Hexarelin and Thymosin Beta-4.
The charges involving Carlton relate to a high-profile coach no longer working at the club. ASADA alleges that Dank provided one or more of human growth hormone, SARMs, Hexarelin, Mechano Growth Factor and CJC-1295 to the coach between March and October 2012.
The charges involving the Gold Coast Suns predate the Essendon scandal. ASADA alleges that in December 2010, when Dank and high-performance coach Dean Robinson were employed by the AFL franchise club, Dank covered up “the use or attempted use of a prohibited substances, namely CJC-1295, by a player at the Gold Coast Suns”.
The Australian has previously revealed that Robinson when employed by the Gold Coast injected himself with CJC-1295 supplied by Dank. ASADA alleges that at the time of Bock’s treatment with CJC-1295, Dank provided the banned substance to at least one other support person employed by the club.
The evidence gathered by ASADA supporting the use of Thymosin Beta 4 and Hexarelin at Essendon substantially overlaps.
ASADA has largely built its case on documents and interviews provided by drug importer Shane Charter and pharmacist Nima Alavi in which they discussed how raw materials for peptides were procured by Charter, compounded into injectable form by Alavi and supplied to Dank.
Charter and Alavi have refused to provide sworn statements to ASADA or testify before the AFL tribunal.
ASADA claims to have witness evidence corroborating its allegation that Essendon players were administered with Hexarelin but no club records or player testimony confirming its use by players.
The 34 players signed consent forms to be administered with a Thymosin peptide.
ASADA alleges they were given Thymosin Beta-4. Lawyers for the players will tell the tribunal the players were administered Thymomodulin or Thymosin Alpha-1, Thymosin peptides permitted by WADA.
In addition to administering Essendon players with Thymosin Beta 4 and Hexarelin, Dank is accused of possessing a Selective Androgen Receptor Modulator and Humanfort, a product that contains growth hormone and banned peptides, while working at Essendon. Dank and Robinson, Dank’s direct boss at Essendon, have maintained no players were given banned substances.
The AFL hearing resumes tomorrow before a three-man panel chaired by retired Victorian County Court judge David Jones.
So now we know why Carlton destroyed the covertly taped interview of their visit to Nino Alavi.
Surely Carlton and GC have to be investigated now - forget the AFL, why cant ASADA open them up?
Isnt the question - why didn't ASADA investigate them? Or were they satisfied with the AFL's 'please fill out this form' Audit(sic) of the other 17 clubs?
Just as well 17 clubs have had two years to put any potentially troubling 'issues' behind them...
100%! Obviously there was a deal at the start of this that Asada would 'forget about' evidence if the AFL would help nail one club etc. The whole thing has been a fix I reckon.
But, now that it is 'public' surely the duty on ASADA is a full blown investigation into these clubs?
I'm sure Danky can get him something to help him with thatYou're forgetting Gill has peptide fatigue...

As I said months ago (maybe somebody can find my tweet) many other clubs are implicated. Watch this space.

RETIRED Essendon star Nathan Lovett-Murray could launch a damages claim against the AFL over footy’s drugs saga.
Lovett-Murray is among 34 former and current Bombers facing a two-year ban for injecting the banned peptide Thymosin beta-4.

His manager, Peter Jess, yesterday said he was exploring “several legal options” regardless of the outcome of the AFL anti-doping tribunal hearings, which began on Monday.
Jess claims senior AFL figures breached their duty of care to the “Essendon 34” by failing to intervene in the club’s ill-fated 2012 supplements program.
“This saga should never, ever have reached the position where it is today,” Jess said.
“The AFL has been negligent, absolutely from start to finish.”

This won't go down well with the foamers, LOL
