Collingwood’s Josh Thomas, Lachie Keeffe accept two-year bans for taking banned drug clenbuterol

[efcboy]

And you believe all that without question?

Jobe has been one of the most honest and honourable players in the AFL. He openly admitted re AOD on fox footy and I would think he was also being honest with ASADA re thymosin.

 

[jmac70]

i dare say that was tongue in cheek. I dont think anyone really thinks Collingwood had a doping program

It is hard to look into the mind of an Essendon supporter. Thanks for giving me an insight...

 

[peppy la pew]

And you believe all that without question?

You say that with some trepidation

Did you not see the bottle labelled " good thymo "

 

[mxett]

On how many occasions have you mentioned Gold Coast and Melbourne in Essendon threads again, hundred's, thousands.

only to be told exactly what Im telling you

 

[peppy la pew]

both saying they havent taken it knowingly

In that case the concentration levels will be interesting

 

[telsor]

irrelevant. The thread is about Collingwood

Then Essendon supporters should stop comparing it to their club.

 

[Armchair Critic]

only to be told exactly what Im telling you

Did you listen ?

 

[reincarnated]

I was wondering if anyone know how many Collingwood players were tested that day? Is it possible the whole team might have been on it (or might have had something contaminated), however only two were tested at that time...so others/rest of the squad have escaped?

This is what they said "You have to keep in mind these are two young men who were at home and had ASADA knock on their door. Both Neil and myself spoke to them shortly after."

If it is just one player I could believe the rest had nothing to do with this. But two makes me think, the rest might not have been tested that day and have made a lucky escape.

I heard it could be 4 years with new WADA rules which is staggering.

 

[Boris the Contradiction]

irrelevant. The thread is about Collingwood

No it's not. It's about Thomas and Keefe. The other threads in here are about the whole Essendon football club; it's coach, it's wider staff and it's processes.

 

[mxett]

Did you listen ?

so it only applies to me does it?

 

[mxett]

No it's not. It's about Thomas and Keefe. The other threads in here are about the whole Essendon football club; it's coach, it's wider staff and it's processes.

so keep essendon talk in there

 

[theboxmike]

I think people just associate drugs with Essendon now. It's almost an involuntary response.

Don't worry it will be apart of your club now to

So you are going with the thought Collingwood has an organised doping program involving the use of Clen for the whole team. Big esculation

On a side note all this is a good advertisement for vegetarianism

 

[spenze]

They were at Steven Danks house for Mexican night. Steve got the mince in from Mexico via Charters, had Alavi put in the "secret herbs and spices" and then cooked them up.

It is pretty simple, the players have a burrito defence.

 

[jmac70]

Don't worry it will be apart of your club now to

Oh I doubt that.

 

[Armchair Critic]

so it only applies to me does it?

It never applied to you, you never listened and continued to do it.

 

[dart]

Has it been mentioned anywhere how many Collingwood players were tested?

Would be interesting to know the strike rate.

 

[spenze]

On a side note all this is a good advertisement for vegetarianism

Nothing is a good advertisement for vegetarianism, as my grandad used to say "Salad, salad, that's what my ******* dinner eats"

 

[theboxmike]

Oh I doubt that.

Obviously it won't be as large as us but your delusional if you believe your club now won't be associated with it.

 

[Apex Predators]

Loving this thread ... Oh the irony.

Essendon and it's supporters bemoaning natural justice for two years. Every conceivable deflection and twisting of the facts to suit the desired end. The smugness and hypocrisy of the approach, can't wait till the facts come out, everyone will see. Only then to try to block any facts from ever coming out.

Now Essendon supporters crucify first, ask questions later. Taking sheer joy with this situation, when the bulk of Collingwood supporters are saying that if they are guilty then get rid of them.

I will be very interested to see the reaction of the bombers supporters if a guilty verdict is handed down. Will it be get rid of them all, or will it be deflect, deny and develop more conspiracy theories.

I can't believe you just missed out on the opportunity to mention Asado beef.

Please improve.

they were your cries of anguish. Maybe follow them

 

[Boxhead_31]

I think they already have

Mr Little was at great pains to make clear that the penalties handed down already to EFC were for governance not drug code related did he not?

 

[jmac70]

Perhaps it won't be as large as us but your delusional if you believe your club now won't be associated with it.

An Essendon supporter just called me delusional. Gold!
