not sure why the formatting has gone nuts but all they need to prove is that use was ATTEMPTED via documentary evidence, witness statements etc.
Illicit drugs are totally different to performance enhancing drugs.
One is so you have a good night out (although damaging in many ways, including your health)
The other is so you have a good list (eh hirdy?)
So apparently every single essendon player voted not to play the NAB cup according to paul chapman. But he also says it wasnt a boycott. Hahahaahha
In other words they were told by the afl to play.
And then they had the gall to turn around and say they were alwaysgoing to play etc etc.
They lie about everything!

i like the fact that 8 players from essendons list in 2012 have been kept on
the other 34 have been charged
thats 42 players, which is about the size of a list inc rookies etc
which means they have only traded/delisted/etc players who WERE involved in the injection scheme.
of course other players from other clubs have taken stuff they shouldnt have.
what makes essendon stand out is that it was a club run systematic mass doping scheme.
that and the fact they have blamed anyone and everyone else since.
cant imagine them picking up anyone who is retired
cant see there being many players from 2013 who have anything like the fitness required - even the ones from last year youd imagine would be off the pace.
