How the hell can it be freely available!?


Whils papers are in investigative mode why don't they name the 11 other clubs. Dr Larkins (yes he's a knob) said at the tiem that report was released that 3 other clubs had used "extensive needle programs". Wouldn't a journo be even slightly curious? Strange.
Why on earth would they run two stories at once when they can run ours into the ground and then get the page hits running hot again with a story about Carlton players injecting banned pre-workout into their dickholes or something?

The slow drip feed of page clicks..

Sit tight.. this all will end within 2-3 weeks when the final report comes out.. then we will have several months of the die hards claiming 'conspiracy' theories about us 'getting off easy' etc etc.. but by then most of the comp will have moved onto the next saga...

I personally don't see then being an issue after June of this year.

Are you guessing or have you been told something??

I would love nothing more than for this saga to end in 2-3 weeks but that sounds a little out there. The Aus. media will definitely pull something out of their butts to keep it going until finals.

Robbo was on SEN at about 6.15pm this evening.

Ox asks him: "Did you get the names by legal means?" Robbo attempts to fob the question off.

The Ox asks him again: "Did you get the names by legal means?"

Robbo: "Ah, no comment."
"No comment" could well be interpreted as a comment in itself.

Good to see Ox pressing him on that.

The interim report is such an effing joke. If ASADA had a legislated responsibility to ensure co-operator confidentially how can they release a work-in-progress report that names names? Ugh.

I think most in the footy world moved on long ago. Coaches, players, officials of all (most) clubs seem to want it just to be done. The media are the ones pushing for a story to run as they got such huge sales/clicks last year from it and are squeezing every last stop.

Anyway.. Billy Brownlow is a flog also. After 5mins of TFS pressing Bomber about sanctions and life without those players in hypotheticals, Sam tries to say something positive and talk sense with facts that we do know, and just like last year Big Bald Slob shuts him down.

Sounded like Ox caught him somewhat off-guard, and the answer came across almost as an admission that the names had been procured by illegal means.

Then again I might be reading too much into it? Anyone else here the segment???

judging from that exchange of course it had been procured by illegal or very dodgy means... unless Fatboy was trying to be cagey to come off as cool and mysterious, in which case he is just a knob who completely misunderstands the repercussions of his actions

Strange thing is the ox is a massive wanker who will usually go out of his way to try to make our club sound bad, for even that cock winder to say something which slobbo has no favourable answer to...

Oh yeh, 2 - 3 weeks no worries, all done and dusted. Now if you don't mind im off to sleep with Mila Kunis on my giant pile of money.
As I said.. 2-3 weeks for it to be 'officially' done (ie report comes out, no case to answer) and then most likely several more months of 'media' beat ups, post analysis and 'click grabbing' before I see it all fading out by June.

If you had read my post you would have understood that.

And I am around 95% confident the final ASADA report/review of findings will be released within the next 2-3 weeks.

IF there are 'show cause' letters, they will need to be reviewed FIRST before a panel is convened... which will take another 2 weeks. The panel process itself takes around 10-12 days.. and IF there were any penalties recommended, then AFL would have 30 days to 'hear' the case. All this is not going to happen.

ASADA will officially declare their interest in EFC finished in the final report. I am almost 100% sure of it.

That's pleasing to see. Though I doubt AOD is on the table. TB4 is the issue.
There will be no case to answer for TB4. That has actually been cleared up with evidence provided by the club, also they would not be able to prove that without Dank's evidence.

You sound very confident, so I'm assuming you may have heard something.

However until it's formally over all I can do is hope we will be ok. Not confident at all.

Brereton on SEN this morning seemed to be suggesting players use peer group pressure to demand an apology from Robbo for publishing the Essendon player's names. They were going to discuss it in more depth after 8am but I couldn't keep listening.
