Ok... whats going to happen from here on in.
ASADA has issued 34 show cause notices to present and past Essendon* players (I think that we can safely say that Jobe is one of them).
The Essendon* players now have 10 days to provide proof that they didnt infringe on the ASADA doping rules or they can try and get a continuance to extend that 10 days for as long as they can. But eventually, they will have to provide the proof that they didnt take what they have been pinged for.
After the 10 days is up, if the Essendon* players havent responded or been given a continuance, they will be entered into the register of findings as having breached the ASADA rules against doping in sports
.
ASADA will then have to send an infraction notice to AFL house for the players along with a recommendation as to the severity of any ban that they feel is warranted for the infraction.
The AFL special tribunal will have to meet up, review the infraction notices and then either rubber stamp them and issue the infraction notices to the players OR, they will have a special session where they will discuss a penalty to the players that is more in line with what the AFL feels is warranted for the situation
IF ASADA or WADA feels that the penalties enforced by the special AFL tribunal are not suitable, they are entitled to appeal the punishment meted out by the AFL either with the AFL or by going to either of the Australian supreme court or to CAS (Court of Arbitration for Sport) in Switzerland. If ASADA or WADA feel that the AFL isnt going to uphold their appeal against the penalties that ASADA or WADA wants, they will go straight to CAS.
The problem with CAS is that they can actually overturn any infraction penalties instead of upholding them or increasing them.
