No Oppo Supporters CAS hands down guilty verdict - Players appealing - Dank shot - no opposition - (cont in pt.2)

[Dave]

ha, no Adelaide Hawk. But incredibly, now Laphraoig is trying to defend him

Reflexive. He's one of the least open minded on the forum for he likes to sprout otherwise.

 

[Lance Uppercut]

The AFL's poster team getting sanctions? Not bloody likely

and nor should they unless it's proven it was coordinated. Just having a laugh

 

[baz_machine]

so since we should be experts .... that means immediate provisional suspension?

 

[yodellinhank]

I sure hope nobody starts calling Collingwood drug cheats.

Take ANZAC day off em.

 

[Pweter]

How many players, AFL wide, have returned positive tests since 2012?

How many of them play for Essendon Football Club?

   The analysis of the B sample is currently scheduled for 14 April 2015. Under the code, players have consented to release of this statement.

   The AFL notes that only the A sample has been tested and the players have the right to request an analysis of their B sample.

Then shouldn't it all still be hush-hush and the guys free to play in finals?

The nature of the substance – Clenbuterol - for the failed test requires the two players to be immediately provisionally suspended.

Good for weight loss I hear...

 

[DapperDon]

Who wants to call MMM tomorrow as the worried mother?

 

[GandalfTheDon]

Sorry, I was going by the precedent set with Essendon if we can get a public furore going and get the likes of Wilson and Barrett on board, we might have a fighting chance! At least I think that's how the AFL judicial process works...

For those who haven't Googled yet ..... asthmatics use clenbuterol as a bronchodilator to make breathing easier.


http://theconversation.com/health-warning-about-body-sculpting-drug-clenbuterol-23815
The growing number of Australians illicitly using the drug clenbuterol to lose weight and build muscle mass are putting themselves at risk of heart attack, researchers say.

Clenbuterol is legally prescribed in Australia as an airway dilator for horses. It also has anabolic properties which led to its use in food-producing animals to increase lean meat yield, before it was banned for that purpose in the United States and Europe in the 1990s.

Internationally, a number of elite athletes, such as cyclist Alberto Contador and sprinter Katrin Krabbe, have been caught using clenbuterol as a performance-enhancing drug, despite it being banned by the International Olympic Committee and World Anti-Doping Agency.


These boys are proper ******

And do it in a male voice just to piss off Eddie

 

[carnthedons]

And do it in a male voice just to piss off Eddie

better still, pull the "don't impose your misogynistic gender identities on me" line

 

[yaco55]

Not so. As the ability to appeal is heavily contingent on the reasons for judgement, the necessary justification MUST be presented at time of judgement.

No - Reasons can be given at a later stage - It means that no party can appeal until reasons are given - Trial by jury in court - Jury gives verdict bur reasons are given later.

Holy * balls Batman.

Cleared tomorrow and Collingwood drug saga just beginning. Tastes so sweet.

It's well known and well used in bodybuilding circles.

Especially used for cutting fat.

Increases heart rate, often gives people the shakes and increases their metabolic rate from it's use.

While it has a slightly muscle building (or holding on to muscle ability), it's mostly use for fat loss/contest prep.

Its about disrepute. They've brought the game into disrepute.

What ******* mother uses language like that?!

It's incredibly dangerous for the heart. I seriously don't understand why football players would need to take clen for

Good old collingwood forever...

 

[yaco55]

This action, if true, may have affected the interim report, but IMO it will have no impact on the tribunal's decision. The evidence, or lack of it, should speak for itself

Joint Investigation may have an impact on the Tribunal decision - Seeing that the AFL's used their contractual powers to make players answer questions, the same powers that ASADA doesn't have under their Act.

 

[Stopher]

Not even Caro could blame Hird for this one.....but she'll probably try!
