They could barely field a team by round 15 due to soft tissue injuries.. Call it what you will but due to external and internal pressures something had to be done. Hence.. two, four, out the door.
Recreational or performance enhancing? I would hate to think your postman has an advantage over his colleagues due to using PEDs.

Given to without their knowledge! Gees they are good down at essendon they can administer drugs into footballers stomachs while they are asleep or just oblivious
There are some pretty potent peptide hormones. I would consider hGH to be a pretty considerable advantage in a sporting environment.
This is the biggest political beat up ever.
Essendon seem to have a rogue sport science team. They are being investigated.
Out of the minimum 744 players on AFL list 1 other player is being investigated, that is .13 of 1% of AFL players.
People should be 50-50 with the bombers. There conduct looks to be highly questionable but there is no compelling evidence as yet.

Listen from about 7:30-8:30 and he mentions something about no players listed in 2013 having a problem as far as the individual goes. I may be mishearing it though.

All the media focus has shifted to this one player, but I haven't seen any suggestions that it's a former player involved - I'm sure it would have been emphasised in all the reports if that was the case.

Can't be him, they said it was a player from another club in addition to Essendon.
Yeah, I realised how stupid my post was a few minutes after I posted it and was hoping it would go unnoticed haha.
Wasn't what was said in the link a suggestion that it is a former player?

"The AFL is not aware of any issues of potential use of PED by any players on an AFL list coming into the 2013 season. There are some potential historical issues we are investigating"

Er no. That doesn't get people worried as much so, the media will keep that bit out.
Huh? What about all those EFC players??

'players on an AFL list coming into the 2013 season' could mean 2013 players undertaking the 2012/13 preseason.
So current (2013 players) could have potentially used PEDs in 2012, but not coming into the 2013 season (eg this preseason).
So whilst my interpretation is just one possibility, I think it shows that you can't rule out 2013 players without clarification.
We don't know player's name: Demetriou
CEO Andrew Demetriou says the AFL does not know the identity of the single player being investigated for possible doping, and that the player could potentially play during the NAB Cup.
Multiple players from Essendon and one player from one other club are under investigation.
An animated Demetriou said the AFL was unable to notify the other club because the AFL itself did not have that information.
"I want to make it clear we have not been told the identity of the one player," Demetriou said.

FMD the AFL loves the bombers, they are carrying out like its imperative that they name the ONE player from another club that is suspect, how about naming the 2, 6, 10 , 15 , 20 essendon players that are suspected.
Talk about carpet sweeping..
So one player from one club is the death of football as we know it, but multiple players from one club is ok.......is it me or is there something inherently wrong in this.

Could the player be on arookie list so in theory not on the list proper?
Fair points. I think I just misread his meaning. You get that sometimes!

Not a truer word is spoken, I'm not sure who is dumber, the people who say that or the people who then run with it?
