yes but it can penalise them?
If they've done something against the rules. As of yet that hasn't been ruled in or out.

I honestly think that drug cheating is far more prevalent in sports that are individual and are more about the actual physical athletic performance.
The two extremes are track and cricket. One is pure athletics and PEDs will be of great help, the other is 100% skill and the only reason you'd need PEDs is to overcome a shoulder injury!

AFL Players Association boss Matt Finnis believes it is wrong for coaches to take performance-enhancing substances that players are banned from using, regardless of World Anti-Doping Agency rules.
After saying that some in football need to reorient their ''moral compass'' when it comes to drugs, Finnis said coaches taking WADA prohibited drugs without good reason was ''clearly inconsistent with what you would expect in that role-modelling sense''.
Sports scientist Stephen Dank has claimed he last year regularly injected Essendon coach James Hird with Hexarelin, a substance players are banned from taking under the WADA code. It burns fat, builds muscle and helps recovery by stimulating growth-hormone release.

Just didn't understand the campaign tonight.
I'd get #standbyessendon but wasn't comprehending the emotive #standbyhird
Not being deliberately provoking, just curious why the fans went the individual angle and not the club?
quote = finnis ''clearly inconsistent with what you would expect in that role-modelling sense''.
Could an Essendon fan please tell me why Dean Robinson has been stood down, but Hird hasn't?
This whole sorry mess is Hird's fault, if he didn't want the program it never would have happened.
It's not the first time he's followed the whatever it takes mantra - whatever it takes to engineer the demise of Knights so he could be drafted in.
If the AFL decides he's brought the game into disrepute, he can be suspended or banned from coaching, regardless of what Essendon or their supporters want.

Omg it underwent extensive clinical trials and is about to begin again.I am sure the whole not approved for human use will resonate well with the afl's sense of reputeness (tm)
Lets hope no other club feeds their players dog food... I know it is good for their coats... but it isn't for humans
Do you have an idea how dangerous some drugs are that aren't proven?
ANY idea
No. Please inform us in the most over dramatic way possible. And please ask us to think about the children!

No, both Doc Reid and Doc bates said its ok. And ellegedly so did ASADA. And so did the results of the clinical trials into AOD.You lot need to stop ridiculing, bullying and shouting down anyone who has a different opinion.
I suggest you take off your rose coloured glasses and start getting a more balanced view...
Not all unproven have side affects but animal derived ones, do pose a risk,
Hirdy says its ok then it must be
