Bombers scandal: charged, <redacted> and <infracted>

A pup ?

Why.

Whats about to occur is the opening of Pandoras Box. No one is sure of the real fallout or knockons from this.

Despite the Leagues pandering and the clubs continued stance the whole fabric of club-player relationship is about to be tested at its very core.

What is said now by the affected parties will eventually be meaningless as self interests come to the fore.

Chip Le Grand reports on the arrest of Shane 'Dr Ageless' Charter and claims this is "a dramatic blow" to ASADA - ASADA star witness Shane Charter arrested.

I reckon Le Grand, who some suggest is the Bomber's PR man, might have been reading too many cheap paperbacks.

The arrest of Charter who already has drug dealing convictions is a known associate of Dank and Hird from past days and we're told he supplied some of the peptides used in the Essendon supplements regime. It was also reported last year that he has gone into business with the family accused of laundering money for the Mokbel drug empire.

Surely, if evidence is produced of Charter's role at Bomberland, the fact that he's been questioned in relation to an investigation into criminal activity associated with the importation and supply of peptide hormones, is not going to assist their cause one iota? Charter's credibility was probably already in question and based on his experience in the field of peptides, he's probably something of an expert witness on the subject. :)

Was it Kate Lundy who gave the "we'll catch you" speech? The only poor [censored] who got caught was Ahmed Saad whose crime was to choose the wrong energy drink in a seven eleven fridge. Meanwhile, James Hird is studying in France courtesy of the AFL and despite admissions from Essendon players, no action has been taken against the setting up of an off site injecting room to inject prohibitive substances. Nothing will come of this. No, my apologies, in order to ensure nothing comes of it, Asada will be found to be compromised, which they probably are.

Fortunately the article is 'premium content' so I'm not going to bother fiddling to read it, but just from the intro, did this Le Grand person graduate from kindergarten? Most of us would see it as a blow to the serial killer, not his defence, if when being investigated for one murder he was prosecuted for another.

You mean this Sandor Earl? - ' On the 2nd of June 2014, Sandor's charges of the use of peptides was dropped by ASADA.[17][18]'

Agree

Don't want to, but agree.

The price for justice is too high, too embarrassing.

Therefore, agree.

Farcical. The Nuremberg trials were quicker than this. No joking.

and they established that "I was only obeying orders" is NOT a defence!!

I thought that Earl's charges of use still stand but that the charge of "trafficking" was dropped?

"ASADA has dropped its peptide trafficking allegation against former NRL player Sandor Earl, the only player to be banned under the anti-doping agency's long-running, drugs-in-sport probe.

Earl admitted being injected with the peptide while recovering from a shoulder injury at the Penrith Panthers in late 2011.

Last year, the sports doping agency claimed that Earl trafficked the peptide CJC-1295.

7:30 can reveal ASADA has placed Earl on its register of findings over his use of peptides, meaning his legal team can challenge his ban."

The only player banned....

http://www.theage.com.au/afl/afl-news/legal-minefield-awaits-in-essendon-peptides-saga-says-lawyer-20140607-zs0is.html

Much of his argument is that because there are so many people who may have broken the rules, it will be a lawyer-fest to 'convict' any one of them. Safety in numbers. Wonderful.

It borders on the ridiculous how much reporting comes from a skewed perspective. So much is written almost supposing that Essendon are some sort of victim in all this as opposed the instigator and guilty. Are we supposed to feel compassion for them ? I certainly don't. Let the lawyers feast, let the club eat itself , let it immolate I really don't care.

Agree bb.

However I do care I want oblivion not so much for the players but Jimmy and company who played fast and loose with their players lives.

Arrogance?

How about this item from AAP -

A spokesperson for the Essendon Football Club reports that it has booked captain Jobe Watson for a visit to a certain sports scientist today and the club is confident that, as a result, he'll be passed fit to play against Melbourne next Sunday.

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return. He has re-signed on to the Demons for 1 more season in 2025. Date of Birth: 12 August 1991 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 229 Goals MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 188

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.

    2024 Player Reviews: #42 Daniel Turner

    The move of “Disco” to a key forward post looks like bearing fruit. Turner has good hands, moves well and appears to be learning the forward craft well. Will be an interesting watch in 2025.

    The Demon’s key defender and backline leader had his share of injuries and niggles throughout the season which prevented him from performing at his peak.  Date of Birth: 5 March 1996 Height: 195cm Games MFC 2024: 18 Career Total: 178 Goals MFC 2024: 1 Career Total: 5

    2024 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

    Lack of preparation after a problematic preseason prevented Oliver from reaching the high standards set before last year’s hamstring woes. He carried injury right through the back half of the season and was controversially involved in a potential move during the trade period that was ultimately shut down by the club.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.
