MFC supplement scare

My hope is it is purely a precaution:  We are responding to what has happened to the swimmer by being ultra-cautious. I’m sure we will get a lot more testing now (red flag to the ASADA bull), but *hope* there is nothing to see, just good governance to remove an identifiable risk....

    Its all starting to make sense now......Why McDonald was missing goals from 20m out.....why Angus looks lost and players were not taking shots from 25m.......and Pruessy manning the mark the wrong way......theyre on the good stuff!

    More like the bad stuff. ?

    Don’t bet on it Ethan, having sat in about 15 lectures from ASADA, cross contamination is one of the leading factor in positive drug tests in athletes. Every athlete (and coach) from about 14 years of age that has any involvement with Australian and state based teams must complete a host of education measures including completing an online module provided by ASADA. I myself have to complete this module yearly to remain qualified to coach on teams. In those modules it discusses the very topic consistently.

    Heres an interesting article on the Shayna Jack issue:

    And a link to the topic on the ASADA website:

    https://www.asada.gov.au/substances/supplements-sport

    interestingly Swimming Australia is sponsored by a supplement company, so they must be considering their position right about now.

     

    I don't think any of Norm Smih's teams took any supplements - how about just some good wholesome steak?  ?

    Supplements have destroyed EssUndon's brand forever.   Why use supplements at all?

    Cause no Aussie athlete would take performance enhancing drugs on purpose.
    We're far too righteous for that.

    No Chinese players at MFC, and not too many performing so we are surely in the clear.

    Might also explain why Trac swam toward the bottom of the pool rather than across it Wadda.

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.
