Former Essendon high performance manager Dean Robinson’s view of how the AFL club’s supplements saga unfolded will be broadcast tonight.

The Seven Network is to air an interview with Robinson, who was stood down by the Bombers in February when they asked ASADA and the AFL to investigate them.

He resigned from the club last week.

The Seven Network has already aired a brief excerpt from the interview, in which Robinson indicates the Bombers employed sports scientist Stephen Dank to run a “black ops” style supplements program.

It’s a claim the club emphatically denies.
