I liked the big BIG BIG troubleAnother brilliant video. U had me at 'hird the turd'
MY Thoughts on Hirdy:
Well not having Enough Evidence is a Good Excuse by the AFL
its over. ASADA/WADA wont appeal. too pissweak
I said you could never trust a AFL funded tribunal. Sad day for football
Final thoughts, If the AFL did cover this up. It will come out. Might take 5,10 years but it will come out
Too many variables to keep silent. Then it will go nuclear
This is one reason why I think the AFL hasn't interfered. The consequences of getting busted for it are too great - and nobody would think it's worth their career.
Hey - The AFL has Hidden a ton so why would this be any Different
It was an independent commission.
What that means is that the commission was being run by people who would tell Gill / Andy to "F*** Off" if they tried to interfere.
Who payed for the Commission?
Ashamed of what? Of not being guilty? Of ASADAs incompetence? They have every right to celebrate as the club was found not guilty.
I'd be ashamed and disappointed knowing my club put the players in such a potentially club and career damaging situation. Fortunately things have worked out which is great for he players, but come on mate, don't for a second try and fool anyone that Essendon had things so under control through the supplement program that there was no potential for careers to be ruined or the club to be damaged much longer term than three years of media attention.
I don't think the prosecution botched the case, so much as their key witnesses couldn't be compelled to testify. Both Charter and Alavi refused to testify against Essendon despite providing significant evidence against them. Charter even went as far as briefing Essendon on his previous discussions with ASADA, as he had been working with them early on before suddenly abandoning them. There was a pretty strong rumour that he was paid by Little to stop co-operating with ASADA, which would explain the 180.My guess is that they will appeal.
WADA busted ASADA's balls over the Cronulla deal. ASADA will want to be seen to be doing something.
I don't understand the hate for the AFL
The AFL commissioned 3 qualified, independent judges to hear the evidence and make a ruling. What more could the AFL have done?
If the case was so open and closed guilty as some folks seem to believe, then wouldn't it be ASADA's prosecution team who botched it?
This whole process was a joke as soon as u found out ASADA hadnt interviewed dank. From that moment i had no faith in any decision that came.
Beyond belief they didnt interview the man adminstrating the programme.
ASADA has come out of this look like they have no Meaning
But the damage was caused by the media and us implying Essendon were guilty before they were found to be guilty. At this point, what did they do wrong? Supplements…we;; every club uses supplements. Until you have proof, they did nothing wrong.
How do you split the blame for this debacle?
What percentage blame is ASADA?
What percentage blame is Essendon?
What percentage blame is AFL?
** Numbers must add up to 100%
ASADA 20%How do you split the blame for this debacle?
