I wonder if WADA has the ability to over rule the AFL and ASADA should it deem any penalties insufficient ?

I agree with you. My point, though, is that I'm not sure anyone knows whether the stuff the players took actually does anything at all.

This would be unfortunate for Esssendon and I would lmao.

 

Not sure about that. I have no doubt they intended to boost their player development but I'm not yet convinced that anything taken (legal or not) has actually been proven to improve performance or player development.

Does the Wade Lees case set some sort of precedent?

He bought stuff, didn't know it was banned, didn't get within a mile of it & got rubbed out.

Did he play for a powerful AFL club?

It can appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) All signatories to the WADA code recognise the jurisdiction of the CAS in Anti-doping rule violations.

Appently you are allowed to take banned drug in certain AFL team and rven admit in doing so without a penalty.

If that is not a green light to other players to take similar action I don't know what is.

I guess most Clubs actually care for their players and reputation while other Clubs will do what ever it takes to WIN.

Under those condition I not sure if the MFC can win its 13 Flag.

I fervently hope WADA doesn't allow this sham !!

 

Iterim report. How the afl can punish on this basis is beyond me.

Players wont be charged till final report.

this also occurred to me especially as the new poers are invoked

Of course you can't punish but the AFL can state they will investigate the incident themselves or lay charges if appropriate as well as indicate what penalties may be imposed if the Club or persons assocated with the Club are found guilty.

Never heard (read) anything better out of AA.

He is right, if they don't charge them, especially Jobe who has admitted it on live tv then open the gates and allow all drug cos their policy would not even be worth wiping my ar$e with.

Good to see we aren't the only ones curious as to the way its going. Even those in the biz seem confounded by the nature of its development .


Hardly surprising that AA would publicly take this stance...

WTF is the AFL commission doing in all of this? This is the biggest scandal to hit the sport in probably 150 years. The Commission are custodians of the game. We haven't heard a word from them. Its a far king disgrace

What is Mike Fitzpatrick doing?? What is avid Essendon supporter Linda Dessau doing sitting up there in judgement on Essendon?? Bill Kelty is supposedly absenting himself from discussions about Essendon being an avid Essendon supporter himself but who knows what is going on.

They are asleep at the wheel. At a time when the game needs a strong statement about where it sits on drugs in sport and cheating it is doing nothing but hiding behind an ASADA report and letting Dimwit make public utterances. He should have nothing to do with this, It should be the Commission itself. And if they aren't taking the lead on this then WTF are they doing?? What is their job/role?

I can't believe no one in media land is screaming about this.

If this was a company then the Chairman of the Board (ie: Fitzpatrick) would be front and centre in sorting out the mess. The AFL are a joke.

Don't know how to do this stuff but I will try:

(Slight bias toward the Guilty Party)

Hahahaha!!

The Hitler rant at its best!!!

ROFLMAO

Here the Essendon version

Nobody can say we at the MFC don't encourage open discussion.

I think Essendon will distance itself from this type of campaign in the future.

Can anybody spot the edit/modification to the video?

  • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

    What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

  • CASEY: Gold Coast

    Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

  • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

    The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
