The Filth had unusual levels of testosterone in 10 players, but the AFL, using tactics borrowed from the KGB and Soviet Ministry of Information, moved quickly to defuse the embarrassment.
My theory (yes, just a theory):
The cabal of Pies players on the gear decided it was too risky to juice up before GF1.
Hence they tired in the second half and almost lost the game.
Afterwards they decided they
had to juice up to win.
And they ran us off our feet in GF2.
Cue the tests showing elevated levels of HGH -- a story swiftly buried
"for the betterment of the game."
And St Kilda's silence on the matter has more than a little to do
with our heavy reliance on AFL and power club beneficence.
The cabal, however, continued juicing up until put on notice. Then totally collapsed
in the 2011 GF and haven't been the same since. Some scattered to the wind,
others now retired.
