If WADA and ASADA can follow the timeline of dosgy sports scientists work places all should be revealed. Much like Bonds and Clemens in baseball the testimony of these scientists could damn them all to hell.

Agree I am also worried. A bit like when I was a kid my older brother was being very naughty but I was just a little. We would both feel the wrath of a belt.

We were also talking about a discarded pick number 4. Watch this space.....

49ers will be back in contention next year jack no doubt about it. 49ers have a complete team and the kap will only improve. Little comfort I know.

I know this is an NFL page. I just thought how a conversation about PED's and what would happen down here if it was the case has become so real. How very strange. Should we start discussing Lotto numbers?

I wonder if some on here actually watch the games we play in or just read stats. We struggled to move the ball from one end to the other. When watts came back a lot of our ball movement came from his intercept mark and then his efficient disposal. I don't trust a lot of players with the ball in their hands but I do with Watts. If we can win some centre clearances which we couldnt last year watts can push up the ground and spoon feed our forwards all day with his sublime kicking.

Yeah spot on. I had the ravens heading straight out of the playoffs. A new offensive coordinator and bang a Super Bowl is theirs. A mate at work who doesn't follow NFL asked if the two best teams were in the super bowl. It's a hard question to answer.

Did Akers dive?

Maybe Lewis is ascending to the heavens.

Jus got home for the second half turn on the tv and 60 inches of HD beyonce is on. Not a bad Monday at all

What am I blind to Old dee? I am not trying to pretend I know the situation as I don't. I am assuming a lot because I have very little information on the subject which is why I am asking questions. I would like to know if Darwin is a membership push or just a cash grab from the NT government? If it is a cash grab and a membership push the membership side of things is a failure at the moment.

I would of thought that after Darwin was decided as a long term strategy some sort of membership plan would have been put in place. If it was it has failed. If it wasn't I can't understand why.

So do you believe we, in the initial stages were up there just for the dollars and as we are the only team up there now we will begin to start attempting to gain members now?

I can't see how teams would believe we have a stronger hold on Darwin when we only have 160 members up there. Yes I agree that us up there alone and doing pre seasons will help and maybe you are right that it all really starts in terms of members now. I think we would both agree that a lot of time will be needed. As of the now the cash incentive is good enough for me.

Have we won out or have other teams given up on Darwin? I'm happy to play in Darwin for the money we receive but I would have thought we would have established ourselves deeper into the community by now and it would have correlated in more then 160 members. I am just wondering if we are even attempting to have a membership base up there. We may just be up there for the money from the NT government.

I must admit my first thought about AP is hell no he didn't/wouldn't ever EVER take anything. Mainly because of my love for him but when I take out my love for him you can see a logical case to question his recovery and season. I don't know if there is a correlation between recreation and PED's but if a player would for arguments sake take a recreational drug to up his performance their mindset musn't be against any form of PED either. It can be comical sometimes. Alistar Overeem was a fighter in the Pride organisation (Japan) who went from a natural skinny framed Muay Thai fighter to a steroid riddled freak of nature. His argument for years was he ate horse meat everyday. No one believed him and he dodged testing in the states for years by fighting in Japan and Europe. As soon as he joined the UFC in the states he tested positive. If our latest high drafted discard gets on the horse meat it would be sad and comical at the same time.

Now that's an article. Baseball will make me speculate about any great feat in sport. I remember Sosa and Macguire making the news here for their "efforts" when they were going toe to toe for the HR record. He is right we should look twice at someone like Lewis and even my man AP. But if I was a Journo when AP received his MVP would I have asked a question about doping? Hell no! It's a fine line and a journo would have been felt to be satan himself if he questioned AP,Manning or anyone else. Thanks baseball I wish I could have kept my ignorance in sport. Do you think we could have this issue or non issue whichever way you look at it in our great sport?

You would assume that after the first game was played and Darwin residents were informed that the MFC in Darwin is a long term strategy people would sign up for some sort of Darwin based membership (If there is one). 160 members after all this time is god awful and stinks of no effort to engage in a Darwin membership drive.

In terms of on the field I don't mind Darwin if we can make it our stronghold. Pre seasons up there will help. If a Darwin game nearly guarantees a win because of our experience up there then it's all good. As crap as we were last year I was shocked we lost to port up there.

273343 is the code for another league try that one. The other league is full.

Jack viney doesn't need to recover after Darwin. Darwin needs to recover after Jack Viney. Sorry couldn't help myself.

Could you imagine the U.S sports press coming down here to do some conferences with our coaches and players? They would throw a riot afterwards. They would think Belichick is originally an Aussie. It is a joke sometimes how we conduct ourselves. It comes from both ends the media and players/coaches. It will never change but it's a wonder people like hearing from Dane Swan. At least he is honest. Good on Arians getting the coach of the year as well. Well deserved to all winners.

It could explain Ray's behaviour at times. A bit too much spray sends him off to another planet. Cris Carter in the Hall of Fame! I loved watching him play. His sideline and endzone catches were awesome. Not bad for a bloke who was let go by the eagles for having a cocaine problem in his first year. He turned it around and the only thing missing was a superbowl ring. He deserved it. Edit: I'm a bit concerned if AP doesn't win the MVP. He is telling everyone he is the MVP and Peyton Manning took the [censored] out of him at the pro bowl. If he doesn't win he may go on a rampage and hurt his knee again.

Does anyone else have way too many Melbourne players in their supercoach team.

It's hard to think about the vikes without AP but I would take luck and then Wilson. I can't see RG3 playing for too long with his knee injuries. Luck is mr reliable and Wilson seems to have a determination about him. He was the third string QB at the start of the year.
