Did we just witness the dirtiest 800m in history?

1. Wanyonyi - from a country with 400+ doping busts, and a coach with the most doping busts in athletics history.

2. Hoey - his pb a couple of years ago at 24 was 1:47 or something??

3. Sedjati - Described as the most obvious doper since Katir. Had his hotel room raided in Paris by doping police.

4. Bol - Failed an a-sample when his times had suddenly improved in his late 20's, dubiously got off with it thanks to James 'fix it' Templeton (same man who got full throttle Lagat off in the exact same way). Transpired he had been researching EPO on his phone. Sudden fall off in performances, now suddenly at age 31 is running sub 1:42.5.

5. Moula - enough said.

Poor Max Burgin - former world age record holder and probably by far the most naturally talented of them all - got spiked. Says it all. He really should have just dropped out immediately. Hope he is not going to be injured now. These massive fields are a disgrace. If Burgin is injured he should sue the Diamond League or whatever.
