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

[Mr Mojo Risin]

WTF??? McRambles has lost the plot, what the hell is this "press conference"? He is just randomly speaking various thoughts.

 

[cymarak]

I'm not actually watching, but from what you guys are saying, this seems like McDevitt's having some sort of vent / rant that would be more appropriate on a shrink's couch than as a public statement from the head of a federal government agency.

 

[yaco55]

Why is McDevitt asking for records from Dank ? - New evidence is not admitted into an Appeal hearing - Get this fool out of ASADA - He is irrevocably setting back anti-doping in Australia.

 

[theboxmike]

Hahahaha this is getting sad now.

Please Ben just STFU.

 

[rumply]

He did point out the unenviable position the players were in & Jobe's reactions yesterday - reckon he honestly feels for the players & wont proceed with an appeal.

 

[efcboy]

What about it?

C'mon Fonzi

 

[drew_j]

To be fair ******* did light a fire under under ASADA when he joined. None of this takes away fro the fact he's a dead set ladder climber who saw destroying our club as a career advancement though.

 

[daffo]

Could anybody watching McDevitt making his excuses live please relay what he had to say when they get the chance.

- Saying Essendon players had blind faith following the club
- He calls once again for Dank to produce his records
- Still looks like he could faint or cry
- Talking about his background - justifying his position again
- Saying that while it was in hands he has moved the investigation on as much as possible. Saying the club was the one holding it up
- Keeps on going back and saying that within a month from starting at ASADA he had the show cause notices out
- Saying that the tribunal and the judges complimented the depth that ASADA had with their investigation
- ASADA have issued 118 show cause notices over 16 sports in the past year (I wonder how many of them stuck)
- ASADA averaging 2 positive tests a month over the past 5 years.

Now opening to questions

 

[rumply]

'do you feel like an april fool today?' gee some jounos are mean

 

[DapperDon]

What hack asked that question?

******* reporters man, get some class ffs.

 

[Its Manbearpig]

Did he really just say "asada had to front this issue under extreme media pressure..."?
Yeah not that hard when all bar 3 people were on your side dickhead.

Were 68 of the SCN's to the 34 + 34x SDank?

 

[The Dustbin]

He is mad. #savingface

 

[rumply]

'we have no powers whatsoever to force Dank to testify'

 

[Matthew_Lloyd]

This meltdown wouldn't be happening if he listened to his lawyers. You brought the humiliation onto yourself you flog

James Hird fault for the delay - my fav.

 

[Mr Mojo Risin]

Hahahaha this is getting sad now.

Please Ben just STFU.

I disagree I want him to keep digging. It's actually quite hilarious.

 

[yaco55]

Loved the first question from the media - Is this the blackest day in the history of ASADA ?

Love it.

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Got on his high horse but fell off and couldn't get back on.

 

[Tassieboy]

Good question about the cost to the taxpayer.

[84859300]

$$$$$$$

 

[222EB]

So Mcdumbshit justifies the length of the investigation by the "massive amounts of material collected" and how long it took to get through all originally.
Yet states that he went over it all in "less than month" when he arrived, and was satisfied he knew enough to proceed.

 

[Bombermania]

This bloke contradicted himself

First he bags the tribunal for calling the case daunting, then as a excuse for why it took so long was due to it being complex.

When asked how much has this cost the taxpayer, he reckons he doesn't know

That is either a lie or he is lazy or just useless

 

[BomberTime]

He looks just like a guy they got from the pub, dressed him up in a suit with a rank orange tie and told him to talk s@## to journos for 15 minutes.

Farse.
