Well yeah, his reputation suffered because players were being experimented upon under the head doctor's nose. He sanctioned the use of AOD without seeking authorisation from ASADA. Sorry Doc, but at face value you were negligent.
Another example of the AFL's total lack of integrity.
AFL got the fish they wanted. Hird initiated the program and was central to it. Doc was against the program and was torn between his personal ethics and the club he loves (loved) and bled for, for 40+ years.
IMO Reid should have officially raised the alarm about the supplements program once he was aware of it and not turned a blind eye. However with Reid basically being by-passed as the program progressed due to his disapproval of it, I can see how the AFL decided to drop action against him, particularly given the time and $$$$$$ cost of supreme court action.
The downside of a protracted court case outweighed the upside to be gained by pursuing a secondary (or less) player in the saga who was against it anyway.

They showed demetriou from last week on radio. on one of the news programs today. Was emphatic no deal would be done, no settlement in regards to this case. Made him look like the fool he is
Sentimental moment. Many years ago we thought Andrew was a potential crook. Fancy one of that ilk running the AFL tabernacle. (Man, we were so paranoid.)
Anyways, I haven't followed DeMetriou since I used to disrespect him. And becuase I make so many mistakes I can't bear to check another one. (Like I'd need to!!??)
Can somebody check for me? Were we all wrong about DeMetriou?
Don't post. Don't even post.
Demetriou was always a saint in the sky. How could we have doubted? *sob*
