Chip leaked the Asada report ?

[T Factor]

I know. I'd just expect that with ASADA's superdooperpowers they asked the government to give them, they'd actually enact them on the most important person in the most important case in their history.

I guess not.

They're actually going to hand down the final report without speaking with the key figure. Good stuff.

That indicates to me that they don't need Danks testimony, they have enough evidence and are merely working through each case before it is presented.

 

[I Rock]

nothing, because he wasn't required to attend for some reason.

You asserted that they couldn't enforce that. Well they can.

And yet they tried and couldn't..........hmmm.

Will be interesting to see if this is the case.

Personally, I would've spoken to the key figure (or at least compelled him to attend an interview) of the saga before potentially prosecuting players based on flimsy circumstantial evidence, but whatever.

Excellent. I'll remember your modus operandi in future cases once ASADA employ you as an investigator. Maybe keep in the back of your mind though once you are chief investigator that things many times are not what they seem. And maybe try to refrain from saying something is flimsy when you have no Idea whether it is or isn't.

lmao, yeah ASADA are just incompetent, the hirdites have let everyone know countless times.
You do know that no-one has to speak? Dank has made it clear he won't speak until it gets to court.

IIRC Dank has signed a stat dec or affidavit so that may be all ASADA need off him.

You do realize the HTB's Person of the Year Caroline Wilson called ASADA an "international embarrassment" a few weeks ago, right?

Oh ok, so as long as you say in the media you won't talk to ASADA, they'll believe you and neglect to even compel you to attend an interview.

ASADA threatened Dank with an infraction and he actually co-operated by signing a stat dec for them. Maybe he would've answered some questions in an interview setting after all, especially if they related to just the players? Guess we'll never know.

 

[I Rock]

On a side note interesting quote from AD.

“You can go back over every transcript and look over every interview, I can’t think of one comment I’ve ever directed as personal against James Hird or against his family.
“I think it suited some people, particularly the overpaid spin doctors to try and make out that there was some kind of personal issue."

That's ones aimed at you King Flog Hanke and your Flog mates.

If Essendon's new defence is that they don't know what the substances are because Alavi can't remember what he made, then perhaps this goes back to our old friend S0?. I would have thought that might fall under either "designer drugs" or "no current approval".

 

[Jobe Watson]

I hear they recently had a few investigator vacancies open up in their Melbourne office - government funding slashed and all that.

Maybe I should apply.

If i remember correct, Dank's legal said he was asked and declined.
Can you tell me from facts you have gathered, why ASADA are incompetent?

12 months to issue show cause to a hurdler
failed appeal on Saad
withdrawing trafficking from Earl
no RoF on Earl

and that's just from the last month

 

[Art Corvelay]

probably yeah. He probably just made the whole thing up.

Half your board reckons the media did

 

[I Rock]

Yep all points to Essendon's innocence and it being ok to injected unknown, untested substances into people. That's how it works?

How does a failed appeal =incompetence.
How does withdrawing a Charge = incompetence

Earl not on the ROF???

http://m.theage.com.au/rugby-league...-drops-trafficking-charge-20140602-zrvcu.html

However, the ABC's 7.30 program on Monday night reported that Earl, 24, had been notified last week that the trafficking component of charges against him had been removed by the anti-doping watchdog, who have finally included him on their Register of Findings.

Maybe the questions you and i would like to know the answers too, have already been answered{just not publicly}
Danks answers to any questions also may change the already finished report.
I think you will find out soon enough whether Danks supplied acc/asada with his incriminating evidence.
If the asada investigators only wanted certain confirmation of evidence and not "more" evidence this might explain the non interview with DANK.

Enlighten me, i don't follow ASADA's ways.
How long do ASADA need to take to issue SC"s?
WTF does the bolded bit make them incompetent? Imo Earl was told this for info he supplied.
And also a failed appeal means they are incompetent, damn our legal system stinks

Not what I said, nor anything to do with what I was replying to but sure, you're free to use stupid internet argument techniques of making things up if you want, I guess.

Let's just say they haven't had a great couple of weeks. Of course, they will be defended to dying breaths in here

 

[Nut_Sacks]

Only after ASADA threatened him with an infraction notice.


Have they spoken to Dank? Have they compelled him to turn up to an interview like their new superpowers say they have the power to do?

They dont need to interview Dank.

That was done last year by the ACC.. as an Austraian Government agency they have full access to this information and more importanly, it is admisssible and CAN BE USED.

This was also confirmed by AD in an interview on MMM this morning.

Moot point.

Well, I thought ASADA asking NRL players who weren't even at Cronulla or Manly during the time of their alleged drug use to attend interviews was pretty darn stupid.

There's one example.
