Curiouser and Curiouser. I thought this was what the Essendon players had been charged for. If not this, what?

Weird the headline is about Trenners and not them. Jackson was very adamant from the beginning he was in the clear.

Ooh Ahh!! Just noticed that is my 400th post.

    Was never that worried about this, so much so that I'd forgotten about it. Still good to have closure.

    Another truly objectionable article among a welter of rubbish pieces written in our media about this subject. I think what he really means to say is that because ASADA has decided not to pursue AOD9604 because of the timing and way in which its status was announced by WADA in 2013, then Jack and any other athlete who might have been treated with it won't be pursued.

    There were reports a while ago that Jack had already been cleared suggesting there was no evidence he had been treated with a cream containing AOD9604 so, whatever the case, he was in the clear.

    IMO, those who ingested AOD9604 in the quantities mentioned in earlier reports and breathing a sigh of relief over this have no reason to take comfort yet. There are the health effects to consider (S0 means a drug had not yet been tested and approved for human consumption) and WADA has the power to come over the top of a decision not to pursue those who consumed a prohibited substance through appeal to CAS. I would imagine however, that if infraction notices are issued against players over TB4 then WADA won't bother.

    Wasn't Dunn supposed to be caught up in the Dank scandal, per that ABC program early last year.

    From memory he and a couple of other players went off site to have injections organised by Dank and approved by the Club Doctor. But unlike the Dons it was just vitamins and was clearly documented and recorded, so no issue.

    Thanks. I thought they were the same thing. So those emails Dank said he had from ASADA were only to do with AOD 9604 and TB4 is unrelated and I take it was always a banned substance.

    Were we ever being investigated by ASADA?

    I thought us, Gold Coast and Geelong were going to be investigated by them at some stage? Could be wrong.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
