Mega Thread Dean Robinson's Interview [full interview in OP]

[theduckfan]

I liked the inclusion of McVeigh, I think he brought a reasonable perspective of view inside Essendon's camp.

Very disappointed in the questions asked of Robinson
- was AOD9604 used
- were I.V. Drips used > 50ml
- what Thymosin was used since "Thymosins" are mentioned.

Legalled or trying to protect the AFL/ASADA as the last thing they want are new infractions coming to light before the report is released.

They filmed 9 hours worth to get that 1 hour interview, highly likely that a lot of interesting questions re Peps were not able to be shown. '

This saga will make a good book in the future once the whole truth is able to be told.

Carlton fans should think before moaning, lets not forget a former president was alleged to have committed various offenses.

Yes he was cleared but the point is did Carlton fans demand his resignation?

He resigned. Then died.

So he charged you 0.0000001 cents extra on cardboard than the other mob.

Cereal killer.

 

[DivideandMultiply]

Matthews is one football person that is his own.

He is a spokesperson for the umpiring department and everything AFL, like I said company man.

 

[FootyGeek]

Even if 30 % of what this weapon character says is true Essendon are in a fair bit of strife you'd think.

Even 15% makes Essendon look like Jeffrey Dahmer.

 

[Island Bomber]

There is other evidence, text messages between Hird and Dank which cannot be argued.

Don't forget about Dank's claims and even Kyle Reimers.

I personally don't think Robinson was lying, he seemed genuine and showed real emotion, something which Hird is yet to do. Still your allowed to have your opinion and I respect that.

I just thought some of you guys would be disappointed in Hirdy but obviously not. I don't see what Robinson would have to gain by saying Hird got regular injections?

If the ASADA report is handed down and it comes out that anyone, not just Hird were involved in anything illegal l will be extremely disappointed. It won't just be me either, 60 thousand members and hundreds of thousands or supporters will feel the same way.

James Hird deserves to be given the chance to tell his side of the story. When he has had the chance to respond and tell his side of the story l will make my judgement then.

As for your last question I can't answer that until it is proven either way if Hird did receive those injections Robinson mentioned.

 

[TerryWallet]

As I keep saying, the AOD situation is far less important than some of the other substances alleged to have been used.

Why did no one ask him, "you say that you know what was taken, the consent forms mention thymosin, can you confirm what type of thymosin the consent forms were referring to?".

Because Ch7, the broadcast rights holder, invested $100,000 so that that question and others like it, wouldn't be asked by another station.

can see the physical toll it looks to have taken on robinson. im sure it will all be worth it for vindication

Don't worry mate, ASADA would have asked all these questions and some more.

 

[Broken_Chairs]

The irony of the clip showing the worker waterblasting the giant "Whatever It Takes" poster off the wall at Bomberland during the interview was gold.

the biggest irony was that the poster depicted the only player to refuse treatment

 

[AndyLucimitis]

"He didnt take it because he didnt like needles and so he didnt sign the consent forms because he doesnt like the needles, so he wasnt injected. Because he doesnt like them. The needles. "

-Mark McVeigh

Not sure what others think, but reading between the lines, it seems Zaharakis doesn't like needles.

 

[mehow2g]

Because he was dismissed unfairly. Its not like he is suing Hird

He has money hes not bankrupt he would be earning 100k+ for years there's no way, but to make outrageous claims about Hird and risking it all there has to be something bigger at stake here how could and extra 100k+ be worth the risk?

 

[FootyGeek]

My favourite part was the answer to why he was taking melatonin.

"Everyone else was"

Reminded me of that old TAC ad where the bloke says "well the traffic was doing 90" and poor Jamie is dead sprawled on the street.

 

[the harry]

Even if 30 % of what this weapon character says is true Essendon are in a fair bit of strife you'd think.

You mean that Hird wanted to research every possible legal way to get an edge? What's is wrong with that?

 

[efcboy]

The latest H-Sun article portrays Dean Robinson as a liar. They've waited for his interview before unleashing information damning to he and dank. Appears EFC and Nathan Bock are victims of crime by Dank and Robinson who may be charged with counterfeiting drugs. EFC and Bock have a right to sue them as victims of crime. The weapon can hand back his $120k paid for lies during his interview

 

[Nik_Kershaw]

I think he was treated like absolute shit.

They made an escape goat out of him, for sure. If they wanted to sack him for overspending, fine, but that doesn't explain why they've gone scorched earth with him.

 

[Thrawn]

It is now certain essendon are in the clear and will have no players suspended or lose points

This is clear to anyone with half a brain

Whereas idiot supporters like you have no brain.

 

[efcboy]

You mean that Hird wanted to research every possible legal way to get an edge? What's is wrong with that?

Good call Harry from a West Coast fan. FWIW the leaked texts between Dank and Hird relating to West Coast, Hawthorn and Collingwood make no reference to illegal activities - they were merely trying to catch up to the best who may have had very good legal supplements programs

 

[Cdreamer]

The irony of the clip showing the worker waterblasting the giant "Whatever It Takes" poster off the wall at Bomberland during the interview was gold.

Ironic also that Zaharakis was on the poster with the slogan "whatever it takes" and he's the only one that didn't get any injections.

 

[Defacto]

did mcveigh really say he cannot say if he was injected with AOD only to go on and say 8 seconds later that he know what absolutely everything was that he was injected with???

i missed it but its on twitter. anyone got the quote

 

[Bombermania]

Thanks for clarifying how Pratt departed Carlton

Counterfeiting Drugs , Where can I buy a machine for counterfeiting drugs, that's awesome.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Matthew Knights never created such a disgrace to football, what did they do to him?

He coached them

 

[efcboy]

Some posters have not seen the H-Sun article yet by the looks above ie Thrawn.

Hopefully Essendon and Bock are cleared and the police arrest Dank and Robinson and this can be the end of it.

 

[theflea]

Jake Carlisle showing how intelligent he is that he has to have his own name tattooed on his back... just in case he forgets what it is?

So if he forgets it he will call himself 'ekaj elsilrac' ?
