He signed off on the program. His signature is on the 'permission slips'. If he got bullied into it or got marginalised after that then he was derelict in his duties as the responsible party for the injection program. If a doctor prescribes medication that doesn't mean they also need to administer it but it sure as hell means they have to record what they have prescribed.
EDIT: Signing off on 'Thymosin' is about as far from being a responsible doctor as it gets in regards to professional sports people.
Yep, Dr Reid is in it up to his neck.
And the letter Reid wrote criticising the program was obviously a self-serving letter written much later and backdated. He was trying to give the impression that he was not consulted, as the charges he faced would have serious ramifications with his right to practise.
And the AFL helped him by withdrawing charges against him.
