They reckon its not financial...... rubbish!
Absolutely spot on
I can give 2 million reasons as to why commons sense tells you it is solely financial
Whole thing is a joke. If it had been Richmond, the AFL would have crucified us
No think you'll find the penalties would have been the same no matter which club. AFL would have done sort of deal. Recent history tells us that's what they do - look at Melb (tanking) & Adel (salary cap cheating)
Have to remember at this stage all the AFL have punished them (and I use that term loosely seeing the penalties weren't harsh enough) for is their governance issues. Haven't actually punished them for the supplements/drugs program because ASADA hadn't completed their investigations. ASADA are the ones that issue the infraction notices/breaches for the violations of the WADA code. The AFL then take over the hearings and the punishments
This isn't over yet, clock is ticking for Mr Dank who has until Friday to answer those "show cause" notices that were issued. Failure to do that (which is what will happen) means ASADA instigate the next process
Hopefully with the ASADA findings to come there will be infraction notices and it will interesting to see what the EFC does if just one of their players receive an infraction notice, seriously what happens then?
