[I]Springboks Bjorn Basson and Chiliboy Ralepelle have been let off and totally absolved of all blame by the South African Rugby Union after testing positive for the banned stimulant methylhexaneamine last autumn but Alberto Contador faces a long ban after he tested positive for Clenbuterol.

Their defences were essentially the same. The Boks duo tested positive because the methylhexaneamine was present in supplements given to them before the Ireland game, a supplement approved by the Springbok managment and used with some regularity over the last couple of seasons. So that’s all right then.
Disregarding the question as to exactly why a player would need a supplement so close to any game, the SARU Disciplinary committee argue that their players cannot in anyway be held responsible for the accidental appearance in their bodies of the banned drug. So that’s all right then.[/I]
