This drip drip from Kerry media men is embarrassing at this stage. It's nearly got to the stage where they see O'Sullivan as the victim in all of this.

Fitzmaurice is dead right.
There's a process for dealing with this stuff and Sport Ireland are supposed to produce the decision and make it public.
Why it took them 4 months to do that once the appeals process was finished, I don't know.

Why did Fitzmaurice not inform the rest of his squad about the risks of taking unauthorised substances outside what the doctor/nutritionists had prescribed? Marc O Se knew nothing about this story until the media broke it last week so Fitzmaurice should not be looking to point fingers elsewhere or getting hung up on who leaked it. It just sounds like he's more concerned with the fact that the story was made public rather than the wider issue of PEDs within the game.

Although that is the managers job to be fair.

Was likely some of those egg chasers that leaked it after they were outted for getting doctors notes to take steroids

No nearly about it. That's exactly how they see it.

As for who leaked it - God, either Kushner or Bannon, I suppose.

[twohands!!!]

Sports Ireland don't exactly come out of this looking the best.

Joe Molloy (JM): Why has the considered report taken so long, when you consider he has served his ban. He served it in two parts, and started the second part of his ban on the 26th of February. Why has it taken so long to get the considered report out? that seems an overly long time.

John Treacy (JT): These are people who do it on a voluntary basis. they are legal people, highly qualified legal people, that are doing it in their spare time.

JM: The people who write the report are voluntary?

JT: Yes, the people who write the report are voluntary. They are highly respected legal people.

JM: I would have assumed they are employed by Sport Ireland.

JT: It's minimum really, in terms of what we pay. It's almost voluntary, let's put it that way.

JM: And that means they can work at their own pace?

JT: Yes. Again, these are things they consider very seriously as well. Like any legal judgement, they give it a lot of time, they give it a lot of consideration. And they do a splendid job.

JM: And not to put words in your mouth, but if they were paid a higher fee, would we get the report sooner?

JT: Well, that's not the model we are using. We depend on these people to put their hands up to hear these cases. We wouldn't want to go down that route, it would be very expensive.

Really seems that there is no time pressure is put on the folks who complete this for Sport Ireland. Seems to be a bit of an whenever suits, no rush approach from Sports Ireland based on what John Treacy was saying.

I did think it odd that when the story broke it, there was talk of waiting for the Sport Ireland report and then lo and behold 4/5 days later the report was all of a sudden ready. I'd say someone got a fairly big fire lit under them when the media got hold of it. Doesn't exactly inspire much in the way of confidence in Sports Ireland competence in this area.

Some stuff altogether although DJ Carey and the KK hurlers are sticking with the bananas for now;

OXYBURN PRO
Superthermotech
Scientifically Reviewed
Superthermotech are a combination of the strongest and most effective weight loss and energy boosting ingredients available on the market today. When taken in combination with a healthy balanced diet an regular exercise the results can be remarkable!
Superthermotech can dramatically improve the rate in which body fat is burnt as well as providing a huge increase in explosive energy levels.
What's in it?
Bauhinia Purpuree L.

Bauhinia purpurea, otherwise known as the purple orchid tree, is a plant that grows in tropical places, such as India and China, although the plant has since been brought to Hawaii, California, and Hawaii. The purple orchid tree has been discovered to be an effective ingredient in helping you lose weight by boosting your metabolism and improve your body's ability to burn calories.

The combination of caffeine, AMP Citrate and bauhinia is by far the most highly rated weight loss pill on the market today – and we see NO other product that is going to unseat it from that position.

Aside from its weight loss properties, Bauhinia Purpurea L (Leaf & Pod [standardized for Bauhiniastatins 1-4]) has also long been used in traditional medicine for the treatment and prevention of different diseases, including diarrhea, diabetes, and even cancer. It has antibacterial, analgesic, and anti-inflammatory properties as well. You can find this at falconlabs-uk.com
Bacopa Monnieri

Bacopa Monnieri (or Water Hyssop) is a type of perennial. This plant may be even more exciting than Bauhinia purpurea because studies show that its extract allows your body to naturally increase T4 levels by approximately 41% compared to controls.
While Bauhinia purpurea increases T4 to T3 conversion, Bacopa Monnieri simply naturally increases T4 levels.
So we added an extract that increases T4 (Bacopa Monnieri), and then combined it with an extract that will convert more to T3 (Bauhinia purpurea), giving you a winning combination and massive fat-burning potential!
This combination is what makes OxyBURNPro so much better than the rest!
AMP Citrate

AMP Citrate is "4-amino-2-methylpentane" (hence the AMP) also known as 1,3-dimethylbutylamine (DMBA) which bares unmistakable chemical structure similarities (as shown below) to 1,3- dimethylamylamine (DMAA) – the infamous ingredient found in many fat burners and pre-workout supplements.
AMP has the same basic structure to DMAA which is why its effects are parallel to DMAA.

These include:

An increase in energy (especially when combined with caffeine)
Heightened mental focus
Improved metabolism
Increase in athletic performance
Cirsium Oligophyllum

Cirsium Oligophyllum is another perennial plant found in East Asia. It has no known hazards, but this incredible extract simply reduced gains in bodyweight by 6.6%, subcutaneous fat mass by 26.2%, yet visceral fat mass by only 3%!

This is incredible because it's subcutaneous fat that is just below the skin!

Visceral fat, however, is the "organ fat" that your body needs a fair amount of, although obese individuals have far too much of this as well.

Greatest of all, cirsium oligophyllum extract works incredibly synergistically with caffeine, which of course is also in OxyBURNPro – You can find this at falconlabs-uk.com

When mixing it with the alpha-2 receptor antagonists and caffeine in OxyBURNPro, fat-burning is far exceeded than when using cirsium oligophyllum extract all alone!
In fact, the potency of caffeine combined with Cirsium Oligophyllum was nearly 10 times greater than Cirsium Oligophyllum alone.
Caffeine

You should already know that caffeine is a safe way to increase energy expenditure and heat you up. This leads to increased fat breakdown via lipolysis and lipid oxidation. That's why it's in every single stimulant-based fat-burner and we're not even going to bother linking to studies about it.
Even better, caffeine also makes you alert, focus better, and gives a euphoric feeling.
And as we mentioned above, caffeine is synergistic with cirsium oligophyllum, making "the whole greater than the sum of the parts" in OxyBURNPro.
Caffeine is a no-brainer here, but the important thing to note is that OxyBURNPro only contains 100mg caffeine per capsule. Unlike other thermogenic fat-burners, this product does not rely on ridiculous amounts of caffeine to get you hot and wired and then give you a nasty crash. Instead, it is merely a synergistic agent with the rest of the ingredients, along with a nice, safe dose to get your metabolism moving.

Sport Ireland anti-doping chief Dr Una May's response:

http://www.irishexaminer.com/sport/gaa/dr-una-may-hits-back-at-eamonn-fitzmaurice-claims-451892.html

SI director of participation and ethics May insisted there was no leak from her institution and suggested that such talk diverted focus away from the fact O'Sullivan incurred a positive test.

"It does seem that a lot of attention is being drawn to the leak whereas the issue here is much greater than a leak."

This kind of thing really shouldn't just be swept under the carpet. I've already seen discussion of this topic removed from another GAA forum.

Clarification Statement by Kerry GAA


The Kerry County Board and Senior Football manager wish to react to claims of misinformation in today's Irish Examiner by Dr Una May from Sport Ireland.


During his press event on Monday June 5th Éamonn Fitzmaurice did not say that Sport Ireland was responsible for the leak of Brendan O'Sullivan's case. He merely asked where the leak came from and this is still a valid query.


On May 12th 2016 Brendan O'Sullivan received an email from Sport Ireland at 10:23am  to follow up on an earlier phone call from Dr Una May. In this e-mail an attachment detailing his case, signed by Dr Una May, informed him that he was banned for four years until he could prove his innocence;


"3.1 Our records indicate that this would be your first ADRV and therefore pursuant to Article 10.1.1 Sport Ireland shall assert that a period of ineligibility of four (4) years (Article 10.1.1) should be imposed upon you."


Depending on Brendan O'Sullivan proving his innocence, the other reduced sanctions and when they apply, are also detailed throughout section 3 on consequences.


We hope that this finally concludes this protracted process




I'll bet they do. They can be thankful for Diarmuid Connolly!
