Interesting as I have it on good authority that Hird threatened to personally sue every board member if he was sacked!  It was from a very good source.
OER. Calling it as it is since 2004.

If the dons get off via some loop hole and suddenly dissapearing witnesses I wont watch an essendon match for years. I would hope someone start a boycott the dons games campaign hopefully players would join in.

They'll get away with it - were always going to. Too much money at stake.

And this saga continues ....


An admission on Fairfax Radio by biochemist Shane Charter that he sourced the banned thymosin beta 4 and delivered it to a chemist commissioned by Stephen Dank has been described as "gold" by Australian Sports Anti-Doping Authority sources.

Stephen Dank, the man at the centre of the Essendon supplements scandal, will attempt to end the debate over his controversial injecting program when he fronts the AFL anti-doping tribunal.

It emerged on Wednesday Dank's barrister had informed tribunal chairman David Jones that he would give evidence at the hearing, set to begin on December 15.

However, the case may not yet start until the new year as a result of a Supreme Court hearing.

ASADA declares: Bring on the AFL tribunal hearing
Jon Pierik
The Age
December 6, 2014


Australian anti-doping chief Ben McDevitt has declared his lawyers are ready to prosecute their case against Essendon, regardless of whether his two key witnesses appear before the AFL Tribunal.

McDevitt said on Friday that while the Australian Sports Anti-Doping Authority would prefer that biochemist Shane Charter and compound pharmacist Nima Alavi appeared at the December 15 hearing, authorities still had a strong case against the 34 current and former Essendon players charged with being administered the banned drug, thymosin beta 4.

"By placing the names on the Register of Findings, the [anti-doping rule violation] panel confirmed my view that possible doping violations had occurred at Essendon in 2012," McDevitt said. "It should be noted the tribunal is not a court and is not bound by the rules of evidence.

"Despite media reports to the contrary, while it is my preference for potential witnesses to front the tribunal in person, I do not believe it is essential. It's now time to test this evidence in a tribunal and we are ready."
