Consent forms have nothing to do with protecting the players.
The consent forms are to protect Essendon, players sign consent forms absolving the club of any responsibility if future adverse impacts result from the multiple jabs that they were about to receive.
Sickening stuff, and no other players had ever heard of such a thing and AFLPA were up in arms at the mention.
Not only did Essendon use the players as guinea pigs in a pharmacological experiment, Essendon made them sign consent forms to protect the club.
Worth remembering when the footy media try to tell us that the players weren't to know that anything untoward might have been occurring.
