Why did the AFL break the story and then delete it from their website 5 minutes later?
Because they forgot momentarily (or more correctly, whoever was responsible for content on the website forgot momentarily) that they were both running a website pedalling news for clicks to benefit sponsors, and a sporting competition, and sometimes the two requirements are in conflict. Presumably someone in ASADA reminded them of their obligations. Never attribute to conspiracy what can be put down to mere incompetence. Surely we have seen enough evidence to suggest the AFL couldn't organise their way out of a wet paper bag with the aid of a chainsaw, let along a decent conspiracy. Some eager beaver in their web content section is probably having their leaving do as we speak.
