Dear Carlton Members,

In the wake of the AFL's Anti-Doping Tribunal handing down further findings today, I thought it pertinent that I reiterate some important information passed on in November last year.

Last year, The Australian newspaper linked a former part-time Carlton employee to the ASADA case. At the time, I clarified that the AFL had confirmed to me it did not have any issue with the Carlton Football Club in relation to the matter. That remains the case.

In early 2013, when the investigation into Essendon began, Carlton initiated a thorough review of its high-performance program.The results of the review were independently verified and showed that there were no grounds for us to be concerned. That also remains the case.

We have and will always endeavour to remain on the front foot with these matters, and I will continue to communicate our position to you in a timely manner.

Kind regards,

Steven Trigg
CEO, Carlton FC
