LOL to those that thought only Essington was playing funny buggers

I for one hopes Paul Little demands that they don't defend themselves.

I can't read that on my phone (although I can make out the optometrist advertisement). What does it say?

IMO this has Martin Hardies grubby little hands all over it.
I cant read the full article but I bet he is the one making the request

Who is fitness consultant "Ian Robinson" - point 10b

 

[Armchair Critic]

Oh yeah,you ******* Victorians

 

[fishardansin]

I highly doubt any club has deliberately crossed the line though. It's just an opportunity for Mrs Flanders to talk about your club for a while.

Basically that they've done the maths from the previous 12 clubs announcement, and figured out that at least some other Vic based clubs (it's workcover Vic, so only has jurisdiction in Victoria) have been running poorly conceived supplements programs (doesn't name clubs, but names Melbourne as employing Dank, and Geelong as employing Robinson). Hence it's investigating all Vic clubs or somesuch.

Hang on, so this is just a random making a request to Workcover?

 

[GuzzLG]

Unfortunately you have to take your fair whack. All 11 presidents must stand down 'for the good of the game'. How would you feel if you child was sent into an environment where there was high levels of supplement use with no point of accountability? WHAT ABOUT THE CHILDREN?

Flog thread is floggish. The document actually says:

"The matters at paragraph 4 implicate potentially all of the AFL Clubs in the League."​

And the issue raised is the lack of accountability and oversight in relation to supplement use.

The document absolutely does NOT state that all clubs, or all Victorian clubs, were doing what Essendon was doing.

However, if they were (including my club) then I would expect it to be investigated and if necessary punished.

Edit: and it's not clear who actually drafted this document. Possible the OP.

Anyway, it does nothing more than repeat already public information and request an investigation.

Not it is Workcover launching action against the other Victorian clubs which they have authority over

This notice is a request of the Victorian WorkCover Authority

Absolutely no problem whatsoever with this, amateurishly put together as it reads.

Open book.
I remember our Pres being asked if we had an issue. He laughed openly. Unless Musashi is a concern.

Look mate stop living in denial ... we all know what Ian Robinson was up to at your club.

You might want to think about what the word "of" means in that sentence.

And so say all of us.

Cool, better phone ASADA and tell them then.

Exactly. It's a request 'of' not 'by'

Reads like it was written by a teary Essendon supporter.

Clarko will enjoy his paid leave to study up for a year before being back in the chair.

You missed the joke.....
