Essendon are stuffed. Gill has just outed them.

Another club is also in trouble for a player(s) using non-ASADA approved substances.

Are there any articles or videos of the conference with Gill yet?

Nine News Melbourne ‏@9newsmelb

BREAKING: The AFL has confirmed one case involving the possibility of WADA-prohibited performance enhancing drug use relates to Essendon.

Craig Hutchison ‏@craighutchy

Smart move by AFL - clarifying aside from bombers broad investigation , just one issue of one player at one club under scrutiny.


The hunt for this one player is on.

SUMMARY:

AFL No.2 Gillon McLachlan held a media conference on Sunday to discuss the Australian Crime Commission report into drug use (blood doping and illicit) and match-fixing. A summary of what he said;

- The AFL confirms Essendon is a club under investigation for possible multiple breaches in relation to PED use by multiple players.

- The AFL says it's aware of a possible breach in relation to PED use by ONE player at another, yet to be named AFL club.

- The AFL says players at Essendon may have been administered PEDs without their knowledge or consent.

- The AFL says there is no evidence or findings from the ACC investigation suggesting any AFL game has been subjected to match-fixing.

- The AFL says it's aware that after being briefed by the ACC that illicit drug use is a "serious issue" in its competition.

One Eyed heard the whole interview and he said say "may" be found to be using illegal substances. Nothing new to report here.

Judging by a few of the questions phone tapping has played a part here id say

Nothing is certain yet unfortunately as i was just about ready to start putting my xmas tree up again

Why mention Essendon specifically now if the AFL has nothing new to say (we already knew they were under investigation) and when the AFL had refused to name any individuals or clubs until today?


Btw Ch 9 news reporting that Stephen Dank is planning to sue various media outlets for $10m.

ESSENDON are set to start the AFL season under a cloud of suspicion, with an investigation into the potential use of performance-enhancing drugs by multiple Bombers players likely to take months to complete.
