Not quite. Robbo is the one that continually refers to it as a supplements scandal. Caro calls it for it was. A drugs scandal. Thymosin beta 4 is taken via injection, they players were injected and complained about how painful the injections were. the attempts to muddy the water and suggest it was Thymomodulin which is taken in tablet form was a ruse. Dank was interviewed by a reporter and questioned about Thymosin and it being a banned substance. His response was “‘I did not know that”. Hence the subsequent attempt to switch to thymomodulin. They wrote a cheque for $60k for Hexarelin and then claimed the players never received it but they don’t know where it went. We all know they have plenty of cash but really??
WADA found them guilty. Thank god it was taken away from the AFL. They appealed to the Court of Arbritation in Sport (I think it was called) and lost.
Guilty. Guilty. Guilty. Players asked to sign an agreement at the start of the season not to disclose the program they would undergo (no talking to family) and exonerating the Club as the program was, and I quote “pushing the boundaries”
They pushed too hard and went way over the boundaries.
Cant keep up.
