ah right, well pretty astounding given the high profile nature of the case. you'd expect the powers that be would have immediately pushed the panel review back or immediately installed new members.

Seriously who's surprised that this Mickey Mouse organisation didn't have its own house in order.

They are a laughing stock.

:lol:


though im kinda disappointed as it looks like they were going to look at the AFL very closely.

They will still look at everything they were going to. They just need to fill at least one of those vacant board spots first

He would certainly have a nice quick process. All he would need is two questions:

1. Do you like or play AFL?
2. Are you a Victorian?

Answer yes to either and it's a life time ban. Answer no to both and you're in the clear

But you'd be happy for the Sharks and their players to get off the hook, even if they too were taking the same "supplements"? All cheats should be banned, regardless of the code of footy they play.

I guess it was more a legal advice thing.

Id say they were given advice that infraction notices would be thrown out if they sat without a quorum.

Once again its just another matter of waiting. Drug charges don't just "go away".

given the way the media made this a rugby league story from day one sure why not.

from the way its going Asada seem to be chasing the AFL hard now, whilst cronulla seems to be a tougher case as dank wasnt an employee

i remember when this story broke AFL types on shows like the back page were sniggering at the NRL, saying how clean their code was.

further it was also said that andrew demetriou had been "dragged down" there when it shouldve just been dave smith on how own

apparently only essendon had some problems whilst the NRL it was multiple clubs

now look how its turned out.

hope they put AFL through the ringer

though as usual the germs will find a way to avoid whats coming to them.

all along the only AFL club that has been mentioned as potentially being involved was essendon, whilst Asada looked at what 6? NRL clubs

now out of nowhere the gold coast suns also apparently have questions to answer.

It's time for BunniesMan to grace us with his presence and predict when this will all be over.

C'mon BM, have another go. May as well. Why stop at 20 incorrect calls?

When's the magical day, month, year?

When will the darkest day finally see sunshine?
