The whole hearing has been adjourned to give Essendon more time to prepare their case. So the media are now running with the headline "Essendon will play finals this year". Caro is the only exception as she thinks a deal behind the scenes will be done before the finals where Essendon will accept not being in the finals so any punishment doesn't drag into 2014.

on AOD 9604 it would seem so

On the others who knows.

The biggest fools are that  Labour MP and Dimwit who stood there in Feb as if the world was about to end. Those 2 deserve each other for royally screwing this up

stumbling block remains the club's refusal to accept that it oversaw a program that allowed illegal drugs to be administered to its players

Richard Ings on twitter saying some interesting things

His opinion, views are the ones that carry the most weight for me.

Respect Whateley as he is a good journo but Ings' still stressing it is the WADA banned list not ASADAs

Yep.
It's WADA's call.
Asada are $h!tmen.

"Of all the substances that are known in this ASADA report, they gave a detailed outline as to what they were and the effects of those if there were any and those fears have been allayed."
 
He also said there were no substances that were still unknown "as to what they may or may not have been, or whether they were administered".
 
"Of all the information available to the club via the ASADA investigation, all those supplements have been cleared in terms of harmful effects on players," Tim Watson said.

If there are no sustances still unknown then what was the name of this amino acid/Mexican drug, Timmy?

Richard Ings ‏@ringsau twitter:

"I have listened to Dr Garnham. (1) WADA determine what is banned or not. Not ASADA. It is the "WADA" banned list."

"(2) the wada decision on the status of AOD9604 is below.

http://playtrue.wada-ama.org/news/wada-statement-on-substance-aod-9604/"


"(3) If ASADA gave incorrect or incomplete advice in 2013 on AOD that advice would not have informed decisions in 2011/12 to use or not AOD."

"Finally ASADA has explaining to do, as I have tweeted previously, as to whether it gave incomplete advice on AOD at any time."

"Vey nice to finally hear AOD referred to tonight as a drug. It is not a supplement. It is a drug"

----------------------------------------------------------------

Ings' point 3 is one of the key points for mine. Even if ASADA gave incorrect or incomplete advice in 2013 on AOD that advice would not have informed Essendon's decisions in 2011/12 to use AOD or not.

The other point is if everything was so fine and dandy then why did Essendon self-report itself in February 2013? If it's all allowed, then why is the Ziggy report so damning of Essendon's experimental program?

Just more Essendon spin from one of their consultants  ::).

Very astute man is Richard Ings

Being the former head of ASADA Ings would know how the rules work and where things currently stand.

As I said what he says carries far more weight than the spin doctors of the EFC, AFL, ASADA and the ranting man man Robbo that we saw on AFL360 last night  ;D
