Would make sense and would be nice to see (her disappear). Whenever a country pays insane amounts of money for medals (like Singapore or Hong Kong) it basically translates to "We don't care if you dope, just win a medal".

Haughey looks more talented than Schooling in my opinion and feels like she might continue.

Murphy has accused Rylov of doping during the press conference. Luke Greenbank heavily implied he thinks the same but was a tad more diplomatic. 
 

 

Swimmers are also much more outspoken than some other sports who never really mention.

Ugh. Can't handle that he lost, probably.

Or the fact the IOC and FINA are cowards and refused to ban Russia due to fearing revenge from Putin.

Should have said that before the race then if he so badly wanted to say that. This just shows weakness and comes across as looking for an excuse why you didn't win.

That’s true. And it doubt he would have said it he was gold - I am not sure he would have done a Lily King as Rylov has never tested positive himself unlike Effimova.

Rylov should sue him then and see if Murphy can present enough proof to a court.

Can't agree more. 

[Orangehair43 256]

Apparently afterwards Murphy Clarfired he wasn’t accusing Rylov or any other participants of individually doping. 
 

 

I doubt any Russian would want to Sue over doping allegations - Russian sport stars usually only really care about what people in Russia think - and very few of them will believe a American and Brit who have just lost saying you doping.

Obviously now Murphy is saying: I wasn't accusing anyone...
