[QUOTE="unrated, post: 1013387, member: 45773"] The funny thing is, South Africa is doing rigorous testing, catches lots of people and then imposes heavy bans. But then all people see In the media is "Springbok gets doping ban" then they start jumping to conclusions that the country has a big doping culture. I have even seen online claims that most of the current Springbok squad Juices after they posted that squad shirtless photo in Japan. You don't do steroids at this level and get away with it. So in a nutshell what I'm saying is that a country that does strict testing and announces these results to the media has to be carefull for the double edged sword as their very actions to portray to the public, players and themselves that they are taking action to keep the sport clean, creates a narrative that they are infested with the very problem that they boast about being harsh on, such as is the case with them trying to make a point with a four year ban for Dyanti. Then they composmise the image of the rest of the players. Dyanti says he went to gym with a friend and he accepted the milkshake that his friend prepared for both of them, unbeknownst that there would be traces of Steroids in it. He apparently forgives his friend as he did not know what he was doing. This is a complete bullshit excuse. Come one think of a better excuse Dyanti like you are steroid injected pork from the butchery or something . [/QUOTE]
