I'm not at all surprised by this latest development.  What I am surprised at his how so many have no real inclination to look at this issue from a much much broader perspective - and at the heart of the matter lies the issue with PED use.

PED use is at rampant levels across any number of sports - it's not just the EFC,  it's not just cycling,  it's not just the NRL, it's not just baseball, it's not just the NFL, it's not just the Russians,  it's not just the East Germans,  it's not just the Chinese swimming team, it's not just the USA track & field athletes and it's not just the Olympics. 

Connected are the large sporting organisations with their enormous sums of monies involved ... and those monies are being protected.   Where do these PED's come from and who controls them?  Take a wild guess.

These "billion dollar" sporting organisations turn a blind eye to PED use (including the AFL) and that ends up legitimising the use of PED's in a crude sort of way.  So in steps the unruly & lawless types for the supply of these drugs.  What else could be expected?

Of course, no one wants to see anyone shot at and any sort of violence like this should be abhorred.  A man might have been killed and his original "supposed" crime was to supply PED's to sportspeople who are basically allowed to use PED's by the sporting organisations that they are connected to.

Stephen Dank warns he won’t be silenced over shooting at Melbourne home

A 'Police source' was attributed to a number of comments in the above story - some of which are a trifle baffling.  Who knows what to believe with anything surrounding this bloke but what we do know is that the shooting was very real. 

Quote

He said he did not believe the shoot-up was an attempt on Mr Dank’s life, but his “murky” existence and background might make it a challenging ­investigation.

Police will be looking into whether it was commissioned by a disgruntled person.  But it was more than likely Mr Dank’s injury was an accident, the source said.

Make up your own mind on the injury but I can see how a 'bullet' might have caused it.  I do have my doubts though and those doubts are strong.  It was reported that he was asleep on his couch when the bullets came flying through his front door but that might not be true either.

The chances of his injury coming from a bullet aren't great but if it were anyone else, we may be inclined to possibly believe that a bullet did cause the injury.  People are so conflicted with Dank that they end up having a default mode of not believing anything he ever says.

The only accident was that the shooter missed. 

Why else would they fire a gun toward him in his own house...

Often just to put the scares up someone. Not always intended to hit.

There's never  anything that's straight up about a story involving Dank though is there

If I've understood this correctly, Dank was downstairs speaking on the phone at around 2.30 am when he was shot. If that's right, I'll take a wild guess and suggest the gunshot and the phone call were related. Otherwise, how unlucky is Dank to be in a place where he could be shot at that time of night?

They missed...!

Just thinking about the process the Police will go through to investigate this. One task will be to rule out those people who don't want to hurt or silence him. Usually that list is longer than the one which includes those who want the victim hurt or silenced. In Dank's case, I can only think of one group who want him alive. That's the media.

What are the chances of the public finding out the truth about this incident?  We may end up finding out whether the 'graze' was caused by a bullet but I'm not going to hold my breath on that either.

"There's a lot more to this than meets the eye" was never more apt.

doubt the shooter was aiming at dank as there were 3 shots fired into the front door, others fired to an upstairs front window and the downstairs front window

Quote

Mr Dank told the Sunday Herald Sun exclusively he believed the attack was linked to his knowledge of drug use at elite sporting clubs.

“There are some anxious people from within the AFL, the NRL and ASADA with what we are about to release,” he said.

“I won’t be silenced.”

He said he did not believe there could be any other explanation for the shooting: “I don’t have enemies or debts.”

Dank: "I don't have enemies or debts"

Dunno, about Dank, but the sort of people I had debts to aren't the sort who shoot up houses.  The fact that he used those words speaks volumes.

So the man who WON'T BE SILENCED has cancelled an appearance at the South Bendigo Football and Netball Club on Saturday.

Why does anyone in AFL-land (or the universe) take this guy seriously.

You would think that in the time it has taken him to tell us he 'wouldn't be silenced', he could have actually said something. But as you inferred, he's been incredibly unlucky. Absolutely loving it.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
