Lance said he didn't for 12 years. Dank could roll on Essendon - he is not the most honest up standing person. As for Riemers if he is not getting coached on what to say you never know what will come out if his mouth.
So what you are saying is they are unreliable witnesses even if they did give evidence. Agreed.

No it says they were assured that what they were taking was approved by WADA. Every ingredient they were told they were taking was listed.

The only doubt is were they given what they were told they were given...
Mark Mcviegh said they took vitaminc, Dank said the coaches took stuff that was on the baneed list, players will be fine....move on nothing to see

People still defending ? Story doesn't add up since the first time we heard of it, the whole hing never many any sense a lot of different stories.
I know its just crazy.

Some people still think essendon took PEDs when when all the evidence suggests they haven't

Why are people still defending their arguments that essendon took drugs

If he's not the most honest and upstanding person, why does everybody all of a sudden believe him 100% when he said that our coaches were on stuff that was outside the WADA code? BTW, I'm not having a direct go at you.

Fair point - he has little credibility. He knows he brought in substances that should not be given to players - have to the coaches is an easy out. They had to be taken by someone.

Agreed, why would anyone really need to listen to Petrie?
Petrie has been in the game since 2000. Highly respected player, sat on the AFLPA excec at one stage.

AFL are very much so an organisation concerned about public view, PR.

Do you think the mum of little Johnny is going to take her son to Auskick with bells on when there is discussion about systematic injecting to player's stomachs?

If ASDA don't get you, the AFL will go the 'bringing the game into disrepute' road.
