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.

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

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.....

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.

  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!

  • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

    After kicking the first goal of the match the Demons were always playing catch up against the Saints in Alice Spring and could never make the most of their inside 50 entries to wrestle back the lead.
