Holy shit Ox trying to explain the difference between what happened at Melbourne and Geelong and what happened at Essendon.

Robbo really struggles to understand the basics of what's going on in a story he's been writing about for two and a half years.

That really highlights how much of an essendon pawn he is. He can't (or won't) understand why well kept medical records are so important.

So much back pedaling at the end.

My favourite part:

"Essendon have said so many times, they don't know what exactly they took. Ziggy Switkowski; the internal report even said the same."

"But he's not a doctor or a scientist!"

Good point Robbo.

hahahahaha he's so ignorant on many levels. Dr Zwitkowski is actually a scientist, but hey, don't let facts get in the way of your views, eh Robbo?
 
I liked Robbo in the past, seemed to be a good bloke and a general footy fan but his bias during the "Essendon drug saga" (official tag) has really shown his poor 'journalism' up. I did enjoy watching him squirm from Thompson's heat the other night, just disappointed that Bomber kept exempting Robbo from his rant.

Wowee. Just listened to that. Holy crap. Robbo was actually asking questions of Ox as to what happened, not the other way around. He actually sounded drunk

On 360 last night he was conceding that he could see what the general consensus had been to the story. Still wouldn't admit he or his paper had done the wrong thing but he never would.
 
This has been an absolute farce from day 1.

AOD90210 or whatever, was a banned substance for those countries operating under the WADA code.

One of our player's administered it via a cream. Surely that is enough for a player to receive a ban. Or is it?

How about someone, anyone, ASADA, the AFL or Essendon just come out and give us a *ucking straight answer. "This is what happened and we made mistakes". So far no one is being held accountable (Dank is just a scapegoat) and the rest of the sporting world is actually laughing at us.

I've heard rumours that Jobe is thinking about retirement. I honestly didn't like the bloke after the Essendon saga broke. I now feel sorry for him and strongly believe he was led down this path by people he trusted within the club. He spoke out about his AOD injections and tried to take an honest approach to the situation unlike Hird who wants to blame everyone else.

Dank was the man the AFL had up it's sleave. The Ace of Ace's. The League was always going to claim it was clear of all wrong doings. "This Brand is clean and all of our clubs associated with the Brand are clean". But the AFL found a way to hang someone in Stephen Dank. He was found guilty of shady work and supplying AFL club/s with filthy imported black market PED's. So if he's guilty of supply, who was the receiver. Do the AFL think we are silly?

If Jack Trengove was in the top 30 player's (AFL), his AOD usage would have gained more attention.
You get many different answer's to the Jack Trengove situation:

-The supplement was banned by WADA code but approved by ASADA.
-The supplement was listed under pre-clinical and clinical development and not listed on the WADA banned substances list.
-The supplement was administered by a cream and not injected.

It would be nice for a straight answer to what is really going on by our governing bodies, whether it be our clubs, the AFL or parliament. It's obvious ASADA was not up to the challenge. Due to Australian cutbacks in the public sector, it wouldn't surprise me if the office was maintained by 3 full timers and an intern. Caught well off their guard by the NRL fiasco, Essendon floored them.

Again, just a straight answer. It's going on 4 years
 
The Geelong and Melbourne football clubs have far too much other important stuff to deal with.

It's not the media or Robbo's fault this crap is dragged up again and again. It's incompetence.

We didn't even issue a statement.

Robbo wrote the article using Dank as a rent-a-quote adding no new info to a story wrapped up last year. Robbo absolutely should be held accountable for this. It's poor journalism.

Absolutely. The only new information was Dank's claims that he had an email welcoming him to MFC. A real journalist would have insisted on a copy of that email and then you might have a story for the third back page, otherwise it's pure rehash to deflect from Essendon in one way or another.

Robbo claiming in the SEN bite above that Dank says he did the same thing at Melbourne as he did at Essendon and everybody goes, "All above board, nothing to see here", while re Essendon they're saying "They're drug cheats", is garbage. Even Dank says that what he did at Melbourne was only similar to what he did at Essendon. Obviously Dank's going for the same angle, but the programmes were similar except for these key differences:
1. Dank didn't administer anything directly to Melbourne players. That was done by trained medicos and supervised by Dr Bates; all of whom risk a hell of a lot by injecting anybody with something that is actually something else.
2. Dan Bates recorded everything.
3. "Thymosin" is never mentioned in any texts, or anywhere re MFC, only Thymomodulin. Thymomodulin only begins to get mentioned at Essendon after about July 2012, when it has been speculated that a cover up of sorts was instigated by Dank being told by ACC investigators that Thymosin Beta 4 is banned.
