Item in Bendigo Advertiser about substances linked with Essendon.

List of Essendon players allegedly injected with peptides includes at least one player who played with Bendigo in 2012. Tom Bellchambers played against North Ballarat.
Bellchambers played for Essendon reserves, not for Bendigo Gold. ;)
Sunday 8 July 2012: North Ballarat 11.8.74 v Bendigo 15.10.100. Among Bendigo's goalkickers was No 74, Tom Bellchambers*, who kicked one goal.
Bendigo was aligned with Essendon but Bendigo was not Essendon Reserves. (Unlike a couple of other clubs!)
Essendon listed Tom B. played for Bendigo. Whether the Gold had been added by then is immaterial. He played in VFL when Bendigo was aligned with Essendon.
It may have had Bendigo as the name but it was Essendon reserves mate. I can tell you that as fact. Essendon ran the show and Bendigo had no input whatsoever.
