Big Victorian club target tested (Herald-Sun)
« on: February 08, 2013, 02:09:22 AM »
A GROUP of players from one of Victoria's biggest AFL teams has been the subject of extensive target-testing by Australia's anti-doping watchdog.

The club came to the attention of the Australian Sports Anti-Doping Agency in about 2010 with as many as 12 players regularly tested since for performance enhancing drugs.

The club is not Essendon, at the centre of its own storm after 40 players are alleged to have taken supplements that could be illegal.

Sources have told the Herald Sun players from an interstate club have also come under suspicion and been profiled by ASADA.

Yep, or maybe Geelong and West Coast.  All those clubs have shown a propensity to turn boys bodies into 'big' men's bodies in a short space of time.

West Coast has always had that stigma attached to it, even since the 90s

There were big rumours going around about the filth in 2010 around the drawn GF

I dare to dream but just imagine in this fog of Bummer-induced euphoria if the filth got exposed as well.   :birthday   :santa

We have been a team of skinny men against boys for years.

If its us, lets just say they are using the wrong gear.

So keeping that in mind, i feel comfortable that we are safe.

West Coast and sydney arent Victoria clubs, keeping that in mind, you would have to think Geelong/Collingwood from daylight.

actually considering the sudden weight gains of some players in the last 24 months, many who are past the growing phase of their life...........

So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."
