Superthread XLIV - honouring Raider_69

Peptides are more about increasing the release of growth hormone. The drugs would have just helped them get bigger and perhaps a little stronger, this won't ensure a better over all performance.

Slow twitch fibres don't respond to steroids so overall endurance is unlikely to be enhanced.

Ahhh, I was just speaking in general.. I won't pretend that I know a lot about it lol
Haven't been following the story at all tbh, zero interest in 'speculation' and all the rest until they actually want to name players.

so what do you use ?

 

[BDR]

Is vaseline a performance enhancing supplement? If so I have some ideas.

 

[BunniesMan]

Train harder, play harder, more endurance, stronger which would = better overall performance

But that doesn't guarantee you'll be an awesome team.

All these things in the grand scheme of things are really just 1 percenters. If a team is a bottom 4 team it won't suddenly become a top 4 team just by shooting up some roids.

 

[BDR]

I haven't used steroids or other PEDs but I have been around people who have used HGH and other things. There are a lot of changes besides muscle mass that happen to their bodies.

There is one player in particular at my club who I would be concerned about, but at the same time you can never know for sure, what with natural variations and whatnot.

 

[Cliffhanger]

Look at his calves, if they're ridiculously disproportionate then he's more than likely taking steroids. Your calf muscles are mostly slow twitch and wont respond to steroids and the usual hypertrophy training. How big your calves will get is based on genetics and how big you can get naturally.

I wonder would PEDs help Steve Price grow a chin?

 

[Apey]

I think noone has any idea and random guesses don't help. I think my club has a 6/16 chance, I think every club has a 6/16 chance.

Except for the 10 clubs that have a 0/16 chance. Stats fail from the professional male model poker playing copper and mensa member.

Randomly selecting a club, the probability they are involved is 6/16, the probability that they are not is 10/16. Of course, that's just straight chance/probability, and is unrealistic with any prior knowledge.

Probability becomes a bit silly in situations like this though because really the outcome has already been determined (without our knowledge).

There is a 1/8008 chance you will pick the correct 6 teams assuming no prior knowledge though.

Clearly you struggle with comprehension skills if you think that's why your post was deleted.

I never said it happened overnight, I said that trustworthy people would know better than to share information, there's a certain level of confidentiality which is expected with these matters. So how can they be trusted if in order to share that information with you they're breaching rules?

Thanks for your concern but my comprehension skills are fine. I do struggle trying to interpret jibberers or those wordsmiths that fail to string together a meaningful sentence. You have NFI in relation to my sources and what they have told me. You have NFI as to why they have told me and they know I can be trusted. If they have been told by the people at the top and they have chosen to tell me, why is that breaching rules? I have not and will not mention teams or individuals.
Best you don't make any further ill informed assumptions.

 

[Rhino_NQ]

afternoon

 

[Cliffhanger]

I am not making assumptions, the fact is there a level of confidentiality which was expected otherwise the NRL would have released it a lot earlier.

If you're so trustworthy why are you on here gloating about what you know and not to mention narrowing the field down a little?

 

[BDR]

Mate you aren't forthcoming with any details, so nobody gives a f**k whether you know something or not. Even if you do know something, there's no way for any of us to tell.

On top of that, your mates (if they exist) only know of players under investigation, because if someone was charged it would be public. In summary, you know jack shit anyway.

 

[abpanther]

Bit feisty in here today

 

[Apey]

lol clearly doesn't know anything, but trying to big-note himself anyway.

 

[Jubileeboy]

lol clearly doesn't know anything, but trying to big-note himself anyway.

Clearly, you are also wrong then as you also do not know my sources but do tell me what info you might have in relation to this? sarcasm:
My deleted post gave some level of credibility as to the level of person that told me.
I'm not making it up so take my info with a grain of salt if you wish. No biggy...

Sorry to upset people but I very rarely post info that I know. Sorry to have some info that some might want to know about....although no names remember
:sarcasm:

How'd you get 6/16 chance? Am I missing something?

No you don't because you can't really know unless you're the NRL, one of the clubs or players or the crime commission. There is no way you could have got your information from a trustworthy source because a trustworthy source would be trustworthy enough not to leak information. Even if the clubs who you've been told are involved are the ones, you don't know for sure, because your source is clearly not trustworthy.

+1. The only people who know anything are those that are truly involved in the situation. If external people knew it would have been leaked much earlier and they'd more then likely name and shame those whom are involved.

There's no doubt people from several clubs are involved, whom is it? Who bloody knows. But we'll find out in due time.

seeing as you apparently can't say anything (naturally), you had nothing to gain by telling people you know something except to big-note yourself.

like most people who claim to have an inside source, you got nothin'.

 

[BunniesMan]

How'd you get 6/16 chance? Am I missing something?

6 clubs are allegedly involved. There's 16 clubs in the comp. The chances of any one club being involved (for those of us with no prior information) is 6/16.

Ah cool, Sorry I wasn't being a Smartass or anything. I haven't had a chance to follow this news 100% so I was curious. I actually didn't know it was 6 clubs. I thought like 3/4 maybe.
