Essendon

[Frailty]

They were on fire early on in the season but have lost their last 4 & are now 7th. No danger of slipping out of the 8 though as there is no competition for top 8 spots in the AFL.

ASADA shit seems to be catching up on them.

Not necessarily.

They did the same thing last season. Started out brilliantly, then fading off and slipped outside of the 8 just before the finals. So they've actually improved on last year...

Oh ok. Sounds like another team I know.

Don't follow it at all except I know they were on fire early & are going shit now. You'd think it would have to affect them in some way, like it did us?

It seems the Bombers were told by ASADA that the drug AOD-9604 not prohibited.

AOD-9604 Not Prohibited?
Fox Footy's Gerard Whateley has revealed what he calls "documentary proof" that the drug at the centre of ASADA's investigation into Essendon was "not prohibited".

On AFL 360, Whateley said that prior to April 22 this year, multiple parties that inquired about AOD-9604 told by ASADA that it was not prohibited substance.

The rationale for that ruling was contained in WADA's own instructions, in a document relating to the 2012 prohibited list.

The TV progam showed an excerpt from the document which read: "As a reminder it is stressed that if a designer drug or any other non-prohibited substance falls into any of the S1-S9 categories then it will be deemed to be included in that section."

"Inclusion in S0 applies only after all the other categories have been considered inadequate."
