Richmond fined for ASADA breach

[Tiger2709]

Carlton were always gonna miss the finals.

Richmond on the other hand...

You should have told your coach and President they could have ordered in more sausages.

We've converted our massage room into a sausage store...perfect temperature to let them age...mmmmmmmmmmm!!!

They just didn't believe Dusty's Address:

34 Thymomodulin Avenue, Tullamarine.

That's not what my mate was told.

He was in a café when he saw Dank. Dank told him that he was forging numerous Richmond players PO Box numbers.

I understand that when the case got to the AFL, they were unsatisfied that these addresses had ever manifested.
Richmond failed to scientifically prove - though testing - that the actual street name and address existed.

The AFL could not be comfortably satisfied that anyone had ever lived at the address that were listed.

As a result, a $5,000 fine was issued, but with strict instructions for everyone to move on as quickly as possible, and with an "almost" sincere plea for Richmond not to appeal the case, as it may further prolong the homelessness of any current players.

34 Thymomodulin Avenue, Tullamarine.

Trouble is we wrote it down as Thymo avenue, and they weren't sure which one it was.

 

[Tiger Toffee]

Surely the actual address doesn't matter as long as our player was in a comfortable place?

Probably lies and half truths I reckon.

 

[Astro Bomber]

This is really embarrassing for Richmond. They've been bad on field, now more off field issues.

Yeah unlike Essendon..oh wait

Too many blokes?

 

[scalesofjustice]

Time for WADA to come OTT

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

Failing to update 1 player's address? I don't think Essendon fans are really in a good position to start stirring the pot on this one.

A drowning man will grasp at a serpent.

 

[manboob]

Dusty is shocked to be living here

 

[Astro Bomber]

These kinds of "oversights" are usually just masking something bigger. It's really bad record keeping by the tigers. Or one wonders if they got rid of the addresses deliberately to avoid tests. They have a history of this kind of thing

 

[Astro Bomber]

That's very observant of you. I wouldn't have known that Essendon were under investigation until you pointed it out. Is it school holidays?

 

[Jobe Watson]

So Richmond a few years ago were fined a small amount for breaching the salary cap and now fined a small amount for not keeping up to date player whereabouts records (which can usually constitute an anti-doping violation sanction for individual athletes).

As long as you blame "administrative errors" you can get away with this cheating.

Makes me sick.

$10,000 fine to be exact in 2011. Another $10,000 in 2007. In 2001 they were fined $20,000 and again in 2000. 1998, 1996... fines fines fines. I can't comprehend how much cheating the tigers have gotten away with just a slap. You would think they would be a good team by now or have a premiership to show for it all. Sad really.

It's a good area though, right

I wondered why dusty shaved the side of his head, good ol Benny boy leaving his mark on the RFC

 

[Duckworth]

Why is there a thread about Richmond on the Essendon board?

Whereas how much have EFC been fined for in recent years? $2 mill for the supplements saga. $85,000 for breaching the provisions of the Total Player Payment rules in 2013, $20,000 for conducting medical tests on potential draftees in 2014. I'm sure there are many more. fines fines fines. I can't comprehend how much cheating the bombers have gotten away with just a slap. You would think they would be a good team by now or have a premiership to show for it all. Sad really. Is there no end to this team's constant cheating and breaking the rules? They keep pointing the finger at other clubs when their own record is the worst of any club.

You sound a little hurt. Sure you aren't a tigers supporter. We are discussing the tigers here. I think we are all aware of the Essendon saga Sherlock. But this about the tigers and how they have no premiership to show for all their cheating for the last 300 years

ever heard of people who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones?

Well I'm in WA and just walked one of my kids to school so no not here, but then our holidays don't always align with the east coast so maybe it is over there, did you have to go to school today, if so it's not school holidays, not too hard is it?

My comment was actually more in relation to being bad on the field, off the field Essendon have been an embarrassment owing to constant cheating for a lot longer than just this saga

Yes because all 10 of our Premierships were won honestly including the only one we played against Essendon which of course we won, whereas Essendon has at least one flag in '93 that we know was won by cheating.
