Oh yeah, sure he couldn't....And I bet he had no idea that his "nutritional advisor" during his playing days was a PED-pusher either.

Come in spinner.
That was like so last year Abasi moderator. Quit living in the past man!

The secrecy requirements that Essendon officials placed on Thompson in 2010 as they began their audacious project to wrench him away from the Cats and across to the Bombers as James Hird's assistant weighed heavily, according to Costa.

That approach from the Bombers was one of the legs of the "miserable trifecta".

Costa said the break-up of Thompson's marriage and subsequent family upheaval as well as a significant land investment and attached interest repayment requirements were the two other parts of the trifecta.

It’s been awhile since the the saga. But from memory I reckon Thompson tried to stop the regime. Hird was in it up to his eyeballs. Not saying Thompson should have got off with nothing but don’t think he started the program.

So I was at my grandparents, about 8 years old. We’d had a wonderful day, just finished some of gran’s famous date loaf.

Anyway a play fight breaks out with my cousin which spills into the kitchen. He reaches up to the bench for an implement with which to fend me off and inadvertently grabs a don Strasbourg and proceeds to slap my face with it.

A euphoric feeling came over me that I was unable to replicate for most of my life.
