I liked the kicker at the end about the players...The last thing we want right now is Greg Baum in today's Age shooting down the Herald Sun's ASADA / AFL / the players are innocent / conspiracy.
Please don't spoil our ongoing fun by giving us facts and reason.
The very last thing we need is for Baum to remind us of facts like -
In an interview with The Age's Nick McKenzie at the time, Dank breezily admitted to administering Thymosin Beta-4, not knowing it was banned. Dank has never answered to anyone, and is now persona non grata everywhere, leaving some waters permanently muddied.
Does anyone else remember the banner their cheersquad had in reference to 'The Weapon'? Seems to be constantly glossed over but that's the type of impact this guy was having on the afl world at the time due to the change in their bodies, the commentators were all over it.
They're probably not trying to convince people like us who have followed it all very closely over the years. They'd just be trying to convince the majority of people in general. The type of people who won't know much more about the whole thing than what they read in The Herald Sun or have been told by other people (likely to be most frequently Essendon supporters). They'll just keep flooding the media with the story of their innocence and eventually those types of people will just start accepting that as being the truth.Essendon just never ceases to amaze me. Despite all the irrefutable evidence indicating their role in an illegal activity, and despite all their interim actions where they made copious attempts to cover their tracks and prevent evidence from being released, and despite the fact they were found guilty, fined and players suspended for 12 months, they still expect the football world to believe they played no part in the saga.
What special kind of idiot is running things at that club? Here's a club that wishes the issue would be put to bed, and yet they continue to open old wounds by protesting their innocence. All they ever needed to do was what Cronulla did in the NRL. Admit what they did was wrong, take their penalty, and then move on. Hardly anyone talks about Cronulla's drug issue, but the Essendon situation is still fresh in peoples' minds. Why? Because Essendon continues to insult our intelligence.
This will never go away so long as that club refuses to own up to their role in the entire sordid affair. The fact there are sections of the media prepared to play the conspiracy card just reinforces my thoughts about the lack of integrity in the media.
It's the culture of the place. Look at Daniher, he asks for a trade, EFC respond by saying he wasn't doing his rehab and he was a party boy. Gossip is their tool of choice.
I don’t think it’s the club
I think it’s their deadbeat supporters keep trying to prove their innocence
The club knows they cheated
Actually Jobe told his dog to do this - In addressing his dog in this manner, Jobe is now communicating with a being somewhat closer to his own intelligence levelLove Jobe comment of dig deeper! Why, did they bury the records under the goal square at windy hill you sock puppet!!! Instead of sitting in New York with your hush money, show some leadership and testicular foriitude for once!!! Put the young players you have failed ahead of you and your stain of a club reputation and tell what really happened!!!

Robbo - the gift that keeps on drinking.
Who tells their dog to keep digging?
Depends on how many Brownlow's I've buried in the back yard that year.
Front bar logic. Never stopped me - nor many of my drinking companions.Hemmingway drank to make people more interesting. Robbo drinks to make his articles more interesting. Never stops a good red from getting in the way of a true story.
How can I read the report??And asada says... enough is enough
Essendon supplements scandal: TB4 was always banned, says ASADA
The Australian Sports Anti-Doping Authority has reiterated that Thymosin Beta-4 was a banned substance at the time it was injected into Essendon players in 2012.www.theage.com.au
I’d like to know why this was published today
There has to be another reason to cover or divert
Edit
and here it is

That’s what makes it all so entertsining. Club knew what happened, but ran with the deny deny deny damage control model which blew up in their face to epic proportions (meanwhile it blew away like a fart in the wind for fessed up Cronulla) and since have spent a good 5 years managing the fallout only for buffoonery like this to re-emerge.Essendon just never ceases to amaze me. Despite all the irrefutable evidence indicating their role in an illegal activity, and despite all their interim actions where they made copious attempts to cover their tracks and prevent evidence from being released, and despite the fact they were found guilty, fined and players suspended for 12 months, they still expect the football world to believe they played no part in the saga.

He can’t. They all signed NDA’s to never speak of what actually happened, and they happily took payment from the EFC for doing so.Love Jobe comment of dig deeper!
