Tests results raise doubts about WADA evidence against Essendon

Unusually high levels of the banned peptide at the centre of the Essendon doping scandal were detected in samples randomly taken from footballers at other AFL clubs.

The test results raise serious doubts about scientific evidence the World Anti-Doping Agency will rely on when it opens its case on Monday against 34 current and former Essendon players accused of taking the banned peptide Thymosin Beta-4.

WADA earlier this year commissioned a specialist sports drug laboratory in Germany to develop a test for Thymosin Beta-4, a substance that is banned for use by athletes but occurs naturally throughout the human body. The WADA-accredited Institute of Biochemistry at the German Sports University in Cologne used the newly developed test to screen 27 samples taken from Essendon footballers during the 2012 season, when sports scientist Stephen Dank was employed at the club.

Of the 27 samples, two collected after a mid-season match against Port Adelaide showed elevated levels of Thymosin Beta-4. WADA in its submissions to the Court of Arbitration for Sport claims the results are further circumstantial evidence that Dank injected Essendon players with the banned peptide. The Weekend Australian can reveal the Cologne lab has since conducted further tests on samples taken from AFL players at other clubs with no known connection to Dank, a Queensland-born biochemist serving a life ban from sport

I don't see the logic in the article, Joseph.  It just means that other althletes found different dealers to source their banned PEDS from.  I don't think that anyone ever claimed that Dr. Dank had tbe Australian franchise for TB4 distribution.
