Amazing watching Dyson Heppell on 360. He actually believes he's still innocent. Mentioning "disbelief" about the decision. "Injustice, we know what we took and it was all documented."
FFS, who is advising these people???? Or is he just an imbecile??? _________________ Explain it to me like I'm a four year old. Ted Whitten is an AFL legend, and Bob Rose isn't? |

I agree. Problem is most of the Media tells them they got Hard Done By.
They where Guilty as soon they signed the Waiver _________________ I am Da Man |

Regardless, reading between the lines I got the feeling he'll leave.
The Essendon 12 can trigger a FA clauses.
But considering Ben Reid is at the cross roads this year, we possibly need to consider targeting Hurley. |

Not sure he will leave because he's a monty for next captain but there will be several of the remaining 12 that will walk. More pain for Essendon over the next few years. Thanks James. _________________ 'Collingwood are the Bradmans of Football'

He's just saying what the deluded supporters want to hear. I noticed that Four Corners is doing a story tonight about it called Whatever it Takes. Can't wait! |

Yes. He could be skipper of a club that he feels betrayed him and will be bottom 4 for 4 years, or go to a club in a window on good $ with a fresh start. |

I get the feeling Heppell is toeing the company line but it's strange that he can make assertions that he's confident of what he's taken and that it's documented. If this was true then why wasn't this reflected in ASADA and WADA's findings into the supplements program.
The only person who can say with some certainty what the players were ingested with is Stephen Dank and there's no indication he's going to implicate himself any further even if it leaves the players affected uncertain on what they may have taken. Whether the club knows or not is unclear but this isn't over by a long shot.
As Ben McDevitt from ASADA said, the players at best were complicit in this program because they didn't ask the necessary questions to the club and they were willing to trust the club on these matters even though the onus is always on the player himself to be responsible for what he takes. This is based on the assumption that the players were really guinea pigs and had no knowledge or foresight into what the supplements program really entailed.
I watched the Four Corners program the other night and I don't think it told us anything that we didn't know already but it was certainly refreshing to see a player actually voice his concerns and show an element of visible anger and distress from this situation. It was a real eye opener to hear how low Essendon can go by forcing Hunter to pay the club's legal fees at one stage.
If other posters haven't seen the interviews of Heppell and Hunter already, here are the links below.
