I don't know how careless she was ...

On the other hand, at least she put her hand up.

Of sorts. Kind of sounds a bit NQR. She's not putting her hand up for using a PED, more like claiming an "oops" moment.

It's so hard to believe these claims about Sharapova. For a start...

The family doctor went rogue.

She was duped.

It was the good meldrumium.

It's not performance enhancing anyway.

She wouldn't take banned drugs ... she's a good Aussie sheila.

She's been set up by the WTA. They need a scalp and she's it.

She is so brave. #standbymaria

Ted, does it also cure cancer?

I'm trying to find out but all the records have gone missing.

 

Any truth in the rumour that Andy Demetriou phoned Maria last night?

 

Probably grabbed by the only drug test they conducted during the Australian Open.

And how come it took so long to process? Bit fishy!!!

She's gawn

So she is 6'11'' with a beard like Ned Kelly? Some drug that ... :lol::)

But at essendon, its looks like a duck, walks like a duck, quacks like a duck but is apparently  a cancer preventing bit of chicken.

I believe this substance gave Maria an enhanced ability to squeal stronger for longer. Certainly did that much for her.

Really? Given the process wouldn't just involve the physical testing (possibly twice to confirm an initial positive reading) but also a fairness step in notifying the player to give her a chance to comment, I think it's been quite quick.

Having said that, it makes no difference to the key issue - she was caught using a banned substance.

Took the legal version.

Meldomodulin?


I have read a few things about Ms Sharapova in the last 24 hours.

From all reports she is a fairly tough piece of work.

While admitting she is guilty do not expect her to accept a long ban.

She evidently has a team  of Lawyers to battle it out and they are not the [censored]  that Hird and company use.

This is stage 1 in a long story.

Had to smirk at the Herald-Scum headline - Maria Shara-doper.

No idea of hypocrisy at that rag.

Laughing at the headline itself. Or the irony that it came from an EFC doping pushing toilet rag.

I don't recall ever seeing Essen-dope as a head line?

Since the software upgrade? we have had continual software glitches. Am I the only one getting sick of fighting dodgy software?

Irony

A week ago the AFL was prepared to allow Port, StK, WB, Melbourne, to get salary cap relief for their suspend ex EFC players.  Some 'power' clubs vehemently objected. 

In true AFL style it is ready to do a back flip.  But first it will 'wait and see', 'for a deal to be struck between Essendon and the suspended players over payment of their wages before ruling on whether the four non-Essendon clubs can receive a salary cap windfall for not having paid their former Bombers this year': http://www.theage.com.au/afl/afl-news/essendon-34-afl-to-rule-on-salary-cap-help-on-banned-bombers-20160309-gnepms.html#ixzz42OA13uhg

This is despite the fact that:  "The league's investigations officer Ken Wood and head of integrity Andrew Dillon have indicated to clubs a first reading of the rules and how they have been applied in the past would indicate the money should not be in the clubs' salary caps if they have not paid the players...The league has pointed to the fact Collingwood did not pay banned pair Lachlan Keeffe and Josh Thomas a portion of their contracts last year and that amount was also excluded from their salary cap".

It is now perfectly set up for the AFL to say something like: now that we have all the facts and all positions have been considered the 4 clubs will have to include the salaries they do not pay in their salary caps!  Or if it takes a few years for EFC to strike a deal it will all be forgotten.

Oh for the day when the AFL has the b_lls to actually make a decision or stick to its own rules.

The rule now is if you a favoured club and squeal loud enough we will bend our rubbery rules for you!

 

Absolutely Spineless =AFL

And mainstream media just closes its' eyes. 

Makes me sick.

Not hard to see who really runs the AFL. It sure as [censored] isn't that spineless moron Gil.

  • NON-MFC: Round 06

    The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Essendon

    What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
