You would think it would be coming from the party that isn't still involved in sport atm.


Well for some reason you quoted the 2nd part of my post which is joking about Porn. But I think you are actually suggesting that the leaks are coming form Dank's side. Which just thinking about and taking into account the other things he is coming out and saying would start to make sense. So I guess if hes going down, hes taking them all with him.

Dear Brendon

If you're so concerned about your old club's welfare, you should never have left.

Thankyou

Broke our all time membership record yesterday.
Sitting at just over 50,500 today, next target is 55,000.
JD looked awesome in the Ressies, cant wait to get him in the league side, reckon he might get a run against GWS next week.
Huge game on Thursday, sick of those pricks beating us, Hurley and Fletch will definately miss but Crameri should return.
Might be a few other changes to freshen up the squad

The club definitely in trouble I reckon. Some players may also be banned. It's gonna get more ugly. Source: Fox Sports via Adelaide Now


ESSENDON has admitted to drug investigators some of its players took the anti-obesity drug AOD-9604 last year.

The Bombers said they relied on a document purported to have been issued by the World Anti-Doping Agency approving use of the substance, which WADA confirmed this week was banned.

It is believed Essendon's former sports scientist Stephen Dank showed a document to Bombers club doctor Bruce Reid.

Essendon does not have the letter, and believes Dank has the only copy.

Several Essendon officials are aware of the letter's existence.

Dank was not available to respond to questions about the document yesterday.

It has been reported "half a dozen" Bombers took the drug as part of the supplements program at Essendon last year, the subject of a joint Australian Sports Anti-Doping Authority-AFL investigation.

While AOD-9604 is not banned under category S2 of the WADA code - which lists specific substances - it is prohibited under category S0, which states substances not approved for human use are prohibited at all times.

Reid has been interviewed by ASADA investigators and is believed to have told them of the letter of authorisation.

Essendon coach James Hird also has been interviewed, with other coaches and players to follow.

Dank has not yet agreed to talk to ASADA.

Given he is not employed by an AFL club, he is not compelled to submit to interview.

Asked about an AOD-9604 "authorisation letter" last night, an Essendon spokesman said: "The club has launched an AFL-ASADA investigation and an internal review and we will not be commenting until the investigations are completed."

If charged with doping, players would be expected to defend themselves under 'exceptional circumstances' provisions in the WADA code and the AFL Anti-Doping Code, which can have two-year bans cancelled.

WADA's rule 10.5.1 discusses the principle of "no fault or negligence", and is based on athletes proving they did not know what they were being given by sports scientists or doctors.

If an athlete can prove "in an individual case that he or she bears no fault or negligence, the otherwise applicable period of ineligibility shall be eliminated".

The Australian Crime Commission said yesterday it had relied on information from ASADA in compiling its report on drugs in sport, which stated several times AOD-9604 was not prohibited.

Melbourne has also been linked to "AOD" in text exchanges between Dank and Demons club doctor Dan Bates revealed last week.

Bates, who has been stood down by Melbourne, was interviewed by ASADA and AFL officers last week.

He said yesterday: "I wish to point out that I will be open and transparent and I look forward to continuing to fully assist ASADA and the AFL in their investigations."

Seems fair. After all, it is an odd year. We've only once won the flag in an even year in our history.

What Essendon have had reported about them in the media since the first story came out,their players have been sensational playing week in week out,certainly galvanising the group.Many teams wouldve fallen in a big heap by now eg. my weak team Melbourne.One thing about Essendon that makes me laugh with their internal inquiry they appointed Ziggy Switowski in charge of their process,the man who was in charge of Kodak and then Telstra,not much chop sending those two companies backwards.

Essendon......... brace yourselves. Off field may get bad.

Still playing good football. I like it when the playing comes out and says with there performances a big **** you to all that is happening around them. So well done to the playing group and perhaps my Eagles should take a good look at the bombers boys.
