haven't played in a few years but just wanted to say thanks rollo for doing an awesome job organising everything. great work mate.

My apologies

Fair comment, however colostrum (extract of pigs brain) is well and truly on the banned list...

"I didn't inject anyone" what a backhander!!

That list has been copy pasted from the interim report. AOD isnt the only illegal one there. One of them is extract of pigs brain ffs.

ASADA named them in the report. But the full report was only given to a handful of people/agencies. Idiotic.

Would not surprise me if it was essendon in an attempt to discredit ASADA as a continuing effort to paint them as incompetent

Richard ings (former head of asada) on twitter this morning seems to think that all of this info coming out today is just from the uncensored version of the interim report. Which seems highly likely. ASADA he said would have a list of who received that report. Shouldn't be too hard to find out who leaked it ...

geez the Herald sun are useless The herald sun says ASADA says essendon players said....but then Also told ASADA.who is doing the leaking here? Not ASADA. probably a player or player agent. Or essendon attempting to discredit ASADA (this whole thing is like when you catch a child doing the wrong thing and they try anything to get out of it "it wasnt me" "she made me do it" "it wasnt my fault" "they were annoying me" "it was an accident" etc)

Couldnt happen to a nicer bunch Why only 14 names though?

Boom Essendon in crisis as players set to be named in banned drugs inquiry

ASADA would most likely have access to the ACC information, parts of it anyway.... also if youre interviewed by the ACC you then cant speak to any other agencies (as is my understanding)

Also, it looks as if ASADA has done everything by the book. delloite (spelling?) also said that ASADA have not leaked. if they keep doing everything by the book, itll be bye bye Jab and Essendon, surely.

So people have accused ASADA of causing confusion when in fact they have only said it is banned, and that is a cause of major embarrassment? Why would they be embarrassed about something they haven't done? :huh:

Free to air games need to be divided equally too (I know this is a bit off topic). But I believe that kids/people are more likely to support a team that they are watching on tv. Ie they see the team lots and then end up members. there are teams that you could go for a whole year without seeing on free to air if you have a social life, whereas you might see the hawks/pies on tv 7 or 8 times.

Good to see Essendon get beaten.

footy journos have very very very short memories

if we beat Richmond and Richmond beat the pies does that mean we are better than Collingwood? hahahaha footy maths 101

so the guilty verdict comes through yesterday. and we wait for sentencing. Eddie everywhere goes on radio saying how much the Collingwood football club is against violence etc. then says said player who is guilty of a very violent act is fine to keep training and that they will support him. what a disgrace.

Hi. My name is Eddie Mcguire. We at collingwood abhor violence. But we will stand but this guy who has just been found guilty

I felt someone had to have a jab

I will still be injecting this season with Essendon jokes....I may have a stab at doing this quite often....although knowing my pigs brain I probably wont think of any good ones

Better sack dustin then

ambulance chasers? hang on a minute. Essendon systematically injected their entire list with drugs that were not fit for human consumption. given the implications for players health and not to mention the integrity of the game (with people who have cheated currently playing) they have been slapped over the back of the wrist with a wet lettuce so far. the rest of the clubs are not deterred from the same course of action by the punishments Essendon were given by the AFL, but by the fear of the punishments ASADA NEED to dish out to ensure this never happens again. If ASADA do nothing and nothing happens, there is effectively nothing stopping a club doing the same thing again and claiming it was the result of one rogue operator who becomes the scapegoat, and meanwhile their players reap the benefits for years (yes, YEARS) to come. This is not about Essendon. this is about AFL and sport in general - no one wants to watch sport where some have taken drugs and others haven't.

Clarko is absolutely spot on. he gets it.
