Widespread doping, match fixing & organised crime links across Australian sport

[social]

You're entitled to your view on Lance and having held off until he admitted his guilt. But you most definitely cannot then call yourself a cynic or realist at the same time.

Anyone who was a cynic would have believed Lance was doping. Every single person who wants to call themself a cynic would have thought this.

That's rubbish

A cynic and a realist would both say that most top quality cyclists were doping

Anyway, look at my 2nd last post in the Tour de France thread

I said that he was probably guilty but until such time as evidence was on the table then you couldnt be sure

Not just a river in Egypt.






Anyway, reckon there's nothing that will come from this.

Given you guys haven't won a football match against us in the last 10 years, that's a bold statement. We don't even play it seriously. the guys that beat you were part of the Melbourne social soccer weekly twilight tournament.

Edit: Although I won't deny they'd taken copious amounts of drugs at the time - they were high on English physical inadequacy.

English footballers generally take performance inhibiting drugs though.

Amazingly Barry O'Farrell has managed to turn this into a partisan political issue.

I was only having a natter with Robbie McEwan about this over lunch the other day....

Congrats but who the **** is Robbie McEwan?

It's worth the effort to put out sport fires

Agree with the view put in the newspaper today that they have basically thrown a hand grenade at the AFL and NRL and walked away. The head of the ACC, John Lawler, said this was about intelligence gathering, not evidence gathering.

In those circumstances it seems reprehensible that the ACC in concert with the government would make these allegations, tarnishing the names of clubs, codes and players and undermining peoples' confidence in Australian sport without any evidence.

What should have happened was they should have passed on their intelligence to the appropriate authorities and told them to gather evidence and start knocking on doors once they were able to charge people.

Just grandstanding from the hapless Kate Lundy

Look Howard, if you cheat, we will catch you.

Think we need to get rid of Kate Lundy and bring back Kate Ellis to this portfolio:

Much better. Just need to do something about the face.

 

[Spikey]

[Ausage]

Much better. Just need to do something about the face.

Oh you dirty man you...

Grandstanding eh? The ACC apparently in cohorts with the Sports Minister eh?

Tell Shane Flanagan and the Sharks. And sadly, there'll be more to come.
