ows the culture down at pie land, when will these players learn 

I wouldn't be casting too many stones on this one 'brendan'...

It's a problem in all clubs from what I hear, big problem.

You would have to be mad to think it has improved...

"Things go Better", seems to be the choice these days.

Young men, risk takers, time and money...plenty of hangers on.

Third Collingwood player in a few years.

Crisis.

Clearly the club needs total disqualification, meaning that MFC, should they win on Sunday, would finish fourth ??

But seriously looking forward to McChinny spin on this.  


Morning Eddie ;)

Prime Minister coup or Collingwood drug scandal? Herald Sun absolutely stumped for today's front page.

The panel on SEN this morning raised an interesting discussion.

Should a team be stripped of the 4 points had the team won if the player tested positive on that particular game day?

In horse racing a win is taken away when a horse returns a positive swab on the day, I understand it’s a totally different scenario and more an individual competition but, how many players would need to test positive on ‘ Game Day’ for points to be stripped?

Also, is positive testing on match day included in the 3 strike policy?

Just when the Pies are up and flying.....

Pity the AFL were not so diligent back when cousins was in his early career!

Oh, they were. Didn't you see the way they went after Dale Lewis? Scorched earth!

Fortunately, this time it's ASADA on the job.

Yes  Lewis was the classic shoot the messenger. 

Sadly that basket is overflowing nothing has gone in there in a long time they just lie on the floor till the cleaners arrive MR.

  1. Yes
  2. Game day illicit drug taking is treated as performance enhancing so different drug code

Peter Gordon on ABC:

Drug was banned on match day only... Defence may be that it was not taken within 24 hours of playing

Nice try Pete, but if it’s still in your system, it is still enhancing performance. When it was taken is irrelevant.

Imagine if one of his teammates also had tested pos and WADA came down hard on Collingwood for 2 pos players! AFL kick them out of the finals like Essendrug was. Melbourne beat GWS on Sunday and finish top 4!

  • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
