I don't follow politics. I have no interest in politics, and believe that people who think that one party is better than another are as stupid as people who believe in cults.

This little debacle makes me almost tempted to vote for once rather than 'being overseas' when the election rolls around. It's disgusting and ridiculous how they are trying to use the NRL and in particular, Mannah, for their own agendas.

This is my take of the situation:

ASADA did not lay all their cards out on the table in terms of what they had and didn't have. They then had an interview stage where every person of interest had a chance to co-operate, give their side of the story and perhaps explain any mitigating circumstances.

I feel the majority of the persons of interest were advised by their lawyers that ASADA had nothing and ASADA was relying on info from these interviews. As a result I think most persons of interest decided to shut up shop and give nothing thinking they were in the clear.

ASADA saw they were getting nowhere, decided to end the interviews and is now just about ready to hand out charges and infractions (infractions via the NRL).

This is what I think we will see by the end of this working week.

Of course the other possibility is they really do have nothing and all this will go away. But I think you'd have to be very naive to think that is the case.

One way or the other, next 5 days will reveal everything.



I really enjoy this piece. This was over a month ago.

This is embarrassing... Heads need to roll now. You can't be making the accusation they did and not have anything 5 months later. They are incompetent, slow and ineffective.

I think the clubs involved should prepare for a class action together. Turn the screws back on them when the election is about to happen. We can play at this media manipulation game too...

Not because his part of the raiders but how can they still call this a story, you'd think they would confirm details such as either illegal or legal, before trying to name and shame.

Going by the Curtis Johnston debacle Earl will be fine.

Sling all the shit you want, this whole circus has been exposed as a joke.
