Well it looks like the basis of the appeal is ' de novo ', when this is laughed out of the swiss courts if it even gets there, the players are going to realize that they have just blown any chance of compensation, lets have a look at the brainwashed players timeline and their brainless actions and thoughts.
1. were convinced to take drugs
2. were convinced to keep it quiet from drug testers
3. were convinced everything was going to be ok as long as the afl had the final say
4. were convinced that the investigation was going to be thrown out in court
5. were convinced that WADA would not appeal and it was over
6. were convinced that any penalty would be backdated and would not miss any footy
7. were convinced to appeal an unwinnable appeal against CAS
8. they continue to this day to believe they have done nothing wrong ( a result of 3 years of brainwashing ) despite the fact that they were there and did it.
All that is off the top of my head, i'm sure there is more stuff to added in there but i'll just revel in the stupidity of the players blowing compo.
