In the interest of getting this supplements thing out in the open, i was hoping ASADA would come down hard to expose them for what they are...What Greg Swann said!
Hird got off too lightly!

From the article turbo posted, it seems players/officials named look like getting up to 2 years away from all sport, while the people involved in trafficking (buying, supplying and so on) are the ones likely to get life bans

Yep id say Dank, Robinson and Hird potentially life bans.
I think the players will get 6 month bans, with how crooked the AFL is it wouldnt surprise me if a deal has already been done to get a lighter sanction for the players

Im sorry jim i must have missed something, did the AFL inject the players?
It seems to be the only straw anyone from Essendon clings to, deflect deflect deflect.
The AFL had the competitions interests in mind in ensuring no cheats participated in the finals and were always going to close the saga from their end before the finals regardless of what ASADA was doing. The only thing that makes sense over how light the penalties were was that they knew full well that ASADA would give those involved the proper wack. This is hardly a corrupt practice,
Im sure the AFL would have preferred it if Essendon didnt cheat and therefore wouldnt have to deal with any of this.
Hird will never coach again so that 2 year contract extension will be another unwanted expense for the bombers, great governance from "chicken" Little!
Shut em down and ship em off to Tassie where they would appreciate being part of the AFL

My point Days is that Andy thinks only of his hip pocket.
Yes im aware that players could be charged but I wouldnt be suprised if the AFL steps in and brokers a deal to get the players a lighter sentence, and yes that may mean Hird gets a bigger whack.

I highly doubt the AFL will have any say in what ASADA bring down.
I thought the same thing, that AFL knows the major players in this saga are going to get their whack from the appropriate body.

But its the AFL who hands down the penalties.
ASADA present their findings and recommendations to the AFL but its up to the AFL to issue what penalties it deems appropriate. Thats why I believe the players will get 3-6 month bans only

Fortunately you wouldn't rate any Essendon player as a Brownlow chance.

Depends on how much they knew they was taking a banned substance. 12 month bans are more likely 'if' they are an innocent party.

AOD isnt an issue.
