From bg72 on TC regarding the news ASADA boss.

http://www.abc.net.au/news/2014-05-09/former-afp-deputy-mcdevitt-named-new-asada-chief/5442888

McDevitt said sport was a multi-billion-dollar industry in Australia but the nation faced an ongoing and increasingly sophisticated threat of doping as new products were developed.

“We have to protect the integrity of that industry,” he told reporters in Canberra.
“As Australians, we all love sports and we all hate cheats,” he said.

He said each professional athlete was personally responsible for what substances entered their body.
Mr McDevitt says athletes and sporting bodies must know the rules.

"Frankly, in my view, ignorance is no excuse," he said.

Maher on SEN also shot out a rumour that the players will be receiving infraction notices. Quite a change from his position blindly defending Essendon at all turns. Are the media conditioning people for when the big stick will arrive? I think so!
Yeh, he said that a mate of his knew someone inside ASADA, said infractions where coming.

Now believe that if you will...:cool:

I liked this line:
"Each professional athlete is personally responsible for what substances enter their body."
Well there goes 32 "The doc said it was ok for me to be injected with" defences down at Essendon*

I reckon that this guy is going to go in boots first and give people a good kicking over at Windy Hill.

Nah. Keep them on life support... want to see all those wooden spoons and record margin losses when they are forced to play a VFL team.
Well that's the "slow, painful" part. The actual death is when they're forced to merge with the Airport West Eagles.

I cant see how they cant receive notices. They signed consent forms giving permission to be injected with AOD9604. WADA have said AOD9604 is banned and has been since 2011. Pretty simple as far as i am concerned.

Prepare for the "Before those illegal infractions, we had the team to go all the way in 2014".
LOL! I loved how early this year the bummer fanboys were full of optimism, bragging how they were gonna steamroll everyone on their way to a flag this year as some sort of revenge for what the AFL did to them last year. The ironing has never been delicious-er!
