BREAKING NEWS: ESSENDON is facing an investigation by the AFL over its 2012 fitness program.
Essendon has confirmed to the Herald Sun that it sacked its sports science guru Stephen Dank late last year amid concerns about his conduct with players.
It has emerged Dank was the major casualty from Essendon's calamitous 2012 season which saw the cub slip from second to 10th on the AFL ladder in 11 weeks.
The Herald Sun can reveal Dank raised the ire of the club chiefs over his performance.
Essendon will hold a press conference at AFL House at 2.45pm AEDT.
A former Essendon player told Channel 9 that the club knew it was pushing the boundaries with its program.
"From what they were saying, it was right on the borderline of what they were going to give us," he said.
"Everyone signed it, it was a personal choice as to whether they took it.
" ... it does seem very odd the type of stuff we were taking.
"They admitted to us it was right on the edge of the levels you could be taking."
