    British Sky cycling team in strife

    Sky may need to look at other ways to "maximize" Salbutamol intake in the future, if the allowed intake is reduced. Interesting comment at the end around offer of WADA assistance being declined by UCI and not being "in control of the process". That's indicating that they may have had some...

    Gil and Fitzpatrick Named in Writ -- the saga

    If it is only tweets, can't be ol' Brucey - he Twitlongers. It would take forever to get just one letter's content out in tweets! And has he learnt how to tag the targeted recipients?

    Athletics faces new doping crisis after ‘biggest leak’ of test results

    ok .... a current US basketballer riddled with injuries during the play-offs ... a US broadcast journo and WW II coresspondent ... I'm absolutely "blackcatted". What's the link?

    Gil and Fitzpatrick Named in Writ -- the saga

    It's taken a while, but things might be loosening up a bit. I wonder what this little tid-bit might be? "There will be a preliminary hearing on a more confined issue before a trial date is set." http://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-06-06/afl-bosses-may-appear-in-court-over-essendon-saga/9839740

    Moved Thread The Saga Lives

    What I find interesting is that this isn't new, only the bank-rolling is - and who is bank-rolling it. " Taylor failed to get to court because of a lack of funds when he initially lodged papers against the AFL in September, 2015, but he has since provided security for costs. "The ultimate end...

    Member of Public trying to obtain ASADA records of players

    Yep. Players should have also been allowed independent advice and stayed seperate through to CAS. Those more accountable through leadership should have copped the most excessive penalties. Instead, the gullible and inexperienced were lumped in with the leaders. But the AFL would not have...

    Member of Public trying to obtain ASADA records of players

    Dank already had a life-time ban in play. For resource stretched bodies, this was the end outcome required, already sourced. Now if Dank were stupid enough to challenge the life ban ...

    Club, not necessarily the players. The club is a premium brand withing the AFL. The players are a renewable resource and were controlled as such. As evidenced by the joke-players-association. There were always going to be more resources coming through to replace the damaged ones, just needed...

    2016 Rio Gold Medallist Tests Positive For EPO

    And on all thongs soccer, then there were the mass-FIFA-sackings-all-round when their integrity group went after Vitaly off the back of a likely second round of info, out of WADA's McLaren Report. That was one massive carpet - lots of fresh bodies being swept underneath. Did McLaren/WADA...

    IOC bans Russia from 2018 Winter Olympics

    Possibly more to come from WADA in the coming weeks. http://www.newsobserver.com/sports/article188736024.html " FIFA is expecting to receive new evidence next week from a Moscow laboratory database about doping cases in Russian soccer. Players from Russia's squad at the 2014 World Cup are...

    IOC bans Russia from 2018 Winter Olympics

    And just to show that AFL isn't the only football management body with an oversized carpet to "ethically" sweep things under (like we didn't already know), .... https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2017/dec/07/fifa-investigator-russia-world-cup-vitaly-mutko " Cornel Borbély, Fifa’s ethics...

    IOC bans Russia from 2018 Winter Olympics

    Yes, places FIFA in a bit of a pickle as I think pressure will now build from other countries after the IOC action. "Walking on razor blades" diplomacy at the moment - aka "nothing to see here". Doesn't look good though when the president of the Russian Football Association (reportedly in...

    IOC bans Russia from 2018 Winter Olympics

    This will stir things a bit in the lead-up to the Winter Games and also Russia's hosting of the World Cup Soccer. Penalties also againts key Russian perosonnel, so not just targeting the athletes this time. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/amp/winter-sports/42242007 Russia has been banned from...

    WADA, whistle-blowers and German TV - China this time.

    Another doping, blowing of an "old whistle", again on Gernam TV. Doesn't leave a lot of time left, for any form of investigation, if found to be warranted. The IAAF gets another mention but we can all relax, because the IOC are at arm's length, but patiently waiting on WADA to independently...

    Independent Tribunal focus from new ASADA chief

    An olive branch with a big stick behind it? Can't imagine this being supported in current political environment as would have to require additional funds and resources. http://mobile.abc.net.au/news/2017-10-07/new-asada-boss-david-sharpe-diplomatic-on-afl-supplement-scandal/9023500?pfmredir=sm...
