Dank may well have sunk Bock with his statements, especially the name of the pharmacy as they may actually have kept real records. Dank doesn't probably realise he just sunk his appeal of the attempted traffic charge, although it may now be a traffic charge instead!

he also maintains asada told him it was not banned at the time.......haha

 

I agree that ASADA is correct in re-opening the matter. New evidence that is relevant shouldn't be ignored. It doesn't necessarily mean there will be a different conclusion, though.

Makes me wonder if he is confused and is getting the advice from someone with the same acronym? Maybe he has registered the Australian Society Against Drug Abuse name and he just asks himself.

everytime he admits something (intentional or not) he always throws in something like this which can be wishy washy to excuse himself of any wrong

the master of double speak and obfuscation. but the press still fawn all over him

If Dank said it was night time I would go outside to check.

Save time - put on the sunglasses and sun block and go straight outside.


Dank now planning to sue the Suns for unfair dismissal and also considering releasing details of his time at Melbourne. According to the smh article anyway.

This from the AGE article:

After leaving the Suns, Dank had stints at Cronulla in the NRL, Essendon and Melbourne - the latter where he worked for about four months before the Bombers' saga exploded in February, 2013. Dank is weighing up whether to release details of his time with the Demons.

 

Four months?

The man is toxic. Even Robbo's in on the act, already pre-empting this last week by mentioning Dank at Melbourne on 360. They simply will not stop in their efforts to distract people from what happened at Essendon.

Don't trust anything from companies associated with News Limited. They have tentacles all over the media landscape and have fought for Essendon the whole way, due to links higher up the hierarchy. Rich people have rich friends, and sadly Essendon are almost the richest in town.

And yet they don't see that their efforts are counter-productive. They want people to come around to thinking that "Essendon have been hard done by".

But by trying to drop Bock, MFC, Geelong in it, it becomes harder to maintain the idea that Suns, Demons, Cats were all on banned drugs ... but somehow Essendon weren't.

It becomes harder to maintain the idea that "Dank went rogue" when you're trying to demonstrate that he was doping players with impunity everywhere he went.

Journos like unbiased, agenda-free, only-seeking-the-truth-it's-got-nothing-to-do-with-getting-Essendon-off Chip "Essendon did nothing wrong, they were just victims of their own disorganisation and Dank-gone-rogue" le Grand, and d1ckheads like Robbo are not actually helping their cause.

I thought wasn't he working at Geelong, Hawthorn and the Backyard Woodchucks as well, peddling placebos?


listening to healy and co on 3aw describing dank's comments as a bombshell and referring to him as stephen. made me want to puke

Healy is just another News Limited mouthpiece, don't bother listening to the guy.

"News Limited", "agenda".

"Hand", "glove".

"Peaches", "cream".

New Limited, the ethics-free zone.

Wow. First i have heard of this. 

Not suprised that Dank is throwing Bombs at everyone now. He has nowhere to go and he will take a few scalps. 

Who was our CEO during that 4 months? (I thought it was 2-3 weeks)

So in 4 months i wonder how much our previous CEO new about what was going on. 

Could be time to speak Schwab & this time it better be solid facts rather than your smug BS. 

4 months is enough to do a lot of damage...

If he was at the club for 4 months instead of the back way through the doctor and it turns out weve been lying about it all, this club and sport will lose me forever. It will actually be the final straw for me

Whatever the answer it will be all out soon...

It's scary to think that Dank was allegedly with us for 4 months. How long does it take to give an injection  or a 1000 and what was he doing here?  I also find it ludicrous he could be pursuing an unfair dismissal claim after so many years unless with an agenda to profit himself.  He could be squeezing clubs  for a cash settlement because anything he says be it true or false can do untold damage to any club he has been associated with. He may have us and GC by the short and curlies.

I wouldn't think that is right. I don't believe he was ever on the payroll. He had an arrangement with Dr Bates that was terminated when the club found out about it as I understand it.

Mud throwing by a bunch ferals trying to divert eyes away from the real issues.

That was what I thought. First I heard of 4 months, so I raised it in case there was any reliable information on this. 


the inability of asada to force an interview or sub poena is a disaster for them in investigations that don't have +ve drug test results

Apart from numbskulls like Slobbo and unbiased and wholly agenda-free truth seekers like Chip, everyone is awake to the self serving and barely credible Dank agenda.

1. "I know where the bodies are buried"

2. "Do you really want to appear in a court/tribunal or would you rather shut me up? I can't talk with a mouth full of dollars."

Even if he blabs I don't think it will go anywhere. Annoyance factor only.

 

.....and still he just walks around.....

They do now (introduced in 2013). I don't know whether they can use them for events/investigations begun before that year. They couldn't in the EFC case because of timing although this was stepped around, at least with the players, because of the AFL's powers.

Hopefully one of the lawyers around here can add something, but I'd hope that Dank's claims might allow ASADA to declare their investigation a new one and use their current powers, including compulsion. Would love to see Dank hoist with his own petard ... syringe.

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

  • FEATURE: 1925

    A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
