Why hire someone who dubs themselves "The Weapon"?
Immediate alarm bells should've sounded that this guy was a 24 carot knob jockey.
The Weapon is The Tool

On the contrary, the weapon is a  legend in my eyes.

gets hired on a million dollar contract
comes in tears every ones hamstring, derailing their whole season
spreads the juice around
then gets the arse but will walk away with a big big payout
thus making Essendon FC the biggest joke in the AFL

weapon=LEGEND

The Weapon = The Needle
The club that keeps giving.

I dunno Y&B, the hirer called itself "The War Machine" so hiring "The Weapon" seems a good fit to me.  Of course, turns out The War Machine couldn't fight it's way out of a soggy paper bag of runny custard and The Weapon was a blunt pair of plastic scissors but I'm sure they all meant well.

God I'm loving this.    :dancing :dogdance :highclap :veryhappy  :woohoo :ROTFL

Well he may prove to be a weapon of mass destruction - for all the wrong reasons  ;D

Mark McVeigh on SEN just before:

* He claims he only took vitamins B & C as he was run down due to little sleep as a result of having a new born baby. Players do the same if they have a cold leading into a weekend match.
* They were taken offsite so they had a sterile environment with a registered nurse as footy clubs are dirty.
* Never heard of the alleged drug. Had to look up Google to know what it was.
* The forms were consent forms; not waivers. If you didn't know what you were taking then you must have been asleep at the meetings which Reimers probably was (Reimers a bitter ex-player with an agenda).
* McVeigh expects Essendon to be cleared.

If all they were doing was injecting Swiss then James Turd and co wouldn't have held a press conference at AFL House asking for clarification from ASADA.

Here's the article on what McVeigh said on SEN this arvo:

FORMER Bomber Mark McVeigh has revealed players were assured all supplements they took last year were above board and has slammed former teammate Kyle Reimers as unprofessional and "disgruntled."

Here's the audio of McVeigh's interview:

Listening on the way home Ox said on SEN that the way McVeigh explained it off air was that the forms were a type of waiver in that if players were told what the club was giving them but if a player went outside the club to someone else (they used a chinese herbalist as an example) then form absolved the club of responsibility of theplayers going to someone outsdie the club

McVeigh also said the reason the injections were done across the road was ensure they were done in a sterile environment

Just a thought.....
The bombers were up and about early last season then had "injury troubles" and the team lost form.
I think at one stage they had over 10 players sidelined.

I wonder if they were really injured just the same as I wonder if Lance Armstrong really had cancer.

Was it an alleged coverup of something far more serious than soft tissue injuries?

Just asking.....

Whatever it is all I know that this is huge & the AFL will be pooting themselves.

Will repeat again what was said on 3AW last night not one Essendon player failed an ASADA drug test in 2012

But understand where you are coming from

Ch 7 news claiming:

* Federal Police and some other crime investigation organisation now involved.
* Computer files seized.
* Possible links between Essendon people and organised crime importing banned substances.
* All this could spread to other major sports.
* The drug allegedly involved is GHRP-6 (which is a peptide).
