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

Burgey · 06-02-2013, 06:09 PM

Massive, sad and disturbing news unveiled at this morning's press conference. Very light on details thus far but this looks to be potentially the biggest story in Australian sport since Leo Barry's mark in the dying stages of the 2005 AFL grand final.

Reckon that most cynics or realists (like myself) would assume that Oz was not immune to problems affecting the rest of the world

Trouble is that kids/sporting tragics etc would not even consider it

Never failed a drug test iirc.

If the Eels have been taking drugs I hope this inquiry helps them get a full refund for anything taken post September 1986.

Sorry I forgot that in Benchy's world unsubstantiated allegations = guilt

As the Sea Eagles are under investigation, they should be shut down immediately and stripped of every title that they have ever won

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.

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

Always knew Aussies were dopes, didn't realise they were on drugs too though.

It's quite worrying really, all that cheating and you're still **** at sport.
