So Kavanagh isn't responsible for the "brief review" but sports and commercial lawyer at Colin W Love & Company Lawyers.

"Without knowing anything further about Mannah's exact medical history and without seeking expert opinion from an appropriately qualified oncologist it is difficult to take this issue further."

Didn't stop the Daily Scum-o-graph though... :lol:

The connection was proposed by a lawyer with no medical training who did a brief review and didn't talk to any doctors.

Sounds legit... :lol:

Mate, that doesn't matter (and I didn't agree with the majority of what he stated); he has a right to say it.

And as far as I know, he hasn't been banned. He's just been called an idiot for jumping to conclusions, a right of others.

Initial thoughts on Bourbon Becky's morally bankrupt defiant piece in today's paper.

1. Get your sources right.
She is still attributing to Kavanagh what the SMH have since come out said was Colin W Love & Company Lawyers.

2. Possibly fabricating support from experts
Makes this claim (without references), which flys in face of Cancer Council & Professor Robert Baxter - Head, Hormones and Cancer Division at Syd Uni.
Senior cancer researchers, leading sports medics and oncologists yesterday expressed their concern that the specific use of one of the peptides could have caused the cancer to accelerate in Mannah's body.

Lets hope she is blacklisted by the NRL for this. No more interviews. No more invites.

I'm not justifying the story or the DT treatment of it, but there were two senior oncologists on Ch7 news stating that a survivor with Jon's cancer type should not go near the substances mentioned in the report.

There is an "expert' backing kavanaghs conclusion



A lEADING cell biology expert has confirmed there is a hypothetical link between growth hormones and the development of cancer cells, claiming it was "bad practice" for an NRL player in remission from lymphoma to be given banned peptides.

Professor Rob Baxter, of the Kolling Institute of Medical Research at Sydney's Royal North Shore Hospital, told The Daily Telegraph that, while the link remained "disputed", there was concern among some oncologists that the stimulation of growth factors called IGF-1 could lead to the growth of cancer cells.

Couldn't find any work he has done on cancer that qualifies him as an expert

However an amazing coincidence
