I am assuming the adjudicators cannot be AFL or WADA or Essendon aligned. How about persons from sports in competition with AFL?
3. Who will be on the three-person panel?CAS has a list of arbitrators from which it will select a chairperson. It is possible they will appoint somebody in this position from overseas, which they have done before with big cases in Australia. The other two members of the panel are appointed by the two opposing parties – WADA and the group of players. Each is able to nominate one arbitrator from the list available. It highlights how this is distinct from a court case, where no party is able to choose a judge.

The arbitrators must be independent, that is to say have no particular connection with any of the parties, and must not have played any role in the case in question.
