THE SAGA CONTINUES - WADA APPEALS

[Red and Bluebeard 2,089]

this could be big. a wise elder, a minister of the cloth and a long dead novelist.

Well, come on, tell us the rest of the joke ... the one that starts "A wise else, a minister and a novelist walk into a bar and order a single malt each."

[daisycutter 29,703]

else?

Remember this??

[The Reverend 1,736]

You would have to take Beelzebub just for the interest the juxtaposition with the man of cloth would provide.

I'm sure it's nothing more than a small philosophical difference. A chat over a couple of Lagavulins and there will be peace in the world. Perhaps Beelzebub would prefer something even smokier, maybe a Laphroigh.

As this thread is about crooks I thought I would put this one here.

A joke i like about Mr. Blatter

“The FIFA president, Sepp Blatter, the director of communications and the general secretary are all sitting in a car — who is driving?

“The police.”

And once they get him down to the station and threaten him with jail time, they will suddenly find that they have a "leaking Blatter" on their hands.

I stand corrected. The thing is I sometimes have trouble standing unaided when indulging in the nectar.

I feel confident it just a few loose floor boards Reverend.

What does She predict this week?

[Chris 2,892]

I think we may need to put up a new title for this thread.

I am thinking 'The Saga Continues - which single malt will it be'.

All this could be followed by 'the Saga Continues - Who has the sorest head?'

She who must be obeyed says 'Dees by plenty!'

I'm a little less optimistic. I see us scraping in by 8 or 9 points.

Will Abbott regret saying he will do "whatever it takes" in his fight gains tax terrorism?

Surely this is the drop that we all drink after the MFC next Grand Final win?

I say, invest in current favourites at reasonable prices. They will be old, rare and expensive by then.

Dunno who I hate more - Bombers coterie members, drug cheats or property developers.

Oh hang on - they're more or less synonymous.

There is a large apartment development by that said developer near my place. There are dozens of owners suing the company. Apparently concrete cancer and shoddy work everywhere and the buildings are only a couple of years old. Edited June 13, 2015 by america de cali

wow

[whatwhat say what 22,901]

Straight from the H-S that yarn.

How did Warner get access to the report?

[daisycutter 29,703]

afl tribunal (selectively) leaking...........who'd've thunk that?

i also understand some in the media have said they have access to the full detailed findings report of the tribunal on the 34 ess players

when in-house doesn't really mean in-house!

An extract:-

AFL counsel Renee Enbom reportedly told the tribunal that "Mr Dank sent a text to Mr Alavi asking if AOD and Thymosin can be mixed, and Mr Alavi responded, 'I can test it out.'"

Jones asked if that was "the one about horses" and Enbom confirmed that it was.

She reported the following text exchange between Alavi and Dank:

"Also is there a problem with giving them an anaesthetic in the muscle? I have discovered a new polymer which will provide slow release system while repairing damaged cell walls. Intra muscular injection."

Mr Dank responded: "No problems with that all."

Mr Alavi later wrote: "It's amazing and being used in the US for elite horseracing. I can even put the Thymosin and AOD in it."

Mr Dank: "Perfect. Let's get going."

He then sends another text message: "Have we tried it on anyone yet?"

Mr Alavi responds: "A few dental injections for periodontal sockets but not for sporting."

Mr Alavi later says: "Amazing repair properties."

Mr Dank responds: "Well, let's test a couple of players."

Mr Alavi says: "Sounds good, buddy. Speak soon."

Counsel for AFL and ASADA were pushing for a lifetime ban for Dank, with Enbom saying Dank has "complete disregard for the health and wellbeing of others".
