    It appears Fox Footy are reporting the matter incorrectly. He hasn’t tested positive, he has been accused of tampering with urine samples being collected by ASADA.

    Depends on whether it's PED or an ilicit substance. The AFL policy on ilicit drug testing players outside of gameday is very poor as it does not extend to footy departments, AFL and media at AFL events.

    See above chook. He didn’t test positive, he allegedly tampered with a sample.

    With the nature of the charge it is hard to imagine that it was an unintended or unknown ingesting of the substance.

    Time will tell.

    The AFL will speak at 4:30pm EST with @tommorris32 reporting Willie Rioli has tested positive for an illegal substance. Watch here.

    Admin, can we have a DL rule where members are not allowed to post stuff that Tom Morris reports?

    • Demonland changed the title to Willie Rioli Suspended Indefinitely

    All we need is one more Eagles player to be found to have done similar and the whole team gets banned. Isn't that how the WADA rules go?

    Then another 15 clubs to have done similar and the 2019 Granny is Melb vs GCS 

    The pieces are falling into place...

    Bwahahahahaaaa!!!!!!

    You think you’d be better off risking a positive test, if it comes back positive then try for a defence. It’s a little harder defending tampering with a sample, must have shat his dacks. No winners here.

    Tampering with a sample is seen as worse than finding an actual drug in the test. 4 year ban seems likely, why [censored] risk it.

    A) because he knew he was cooked if it was tested and, B) he was probably completely ignorant of what the penalty for tampering with a sample would be.

    No doubt it was a hot sample, but the punishment is just so much worse for trying to cheat the system.

    Titus o Reilly reporting the testers got suspicious when the sample revealed he is 6 months pregnant

    As it should be, but never let it be said that footballers are always the sharpest knives in the drawer.

    Among the astonishing points of the FINA doping panel’s report seen by The Sunday Telegraph were witness claims that “Sun’s mother asked a guard to bring a hammer into the doping control room”.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #42 Aidan Johnson

      The VFL premiership player was recruited from Werribee to alleviate Melbourne’s forward line woes and give a chop out in the ruck, but he managed only five senior matches in his first season at the club. At times, he was a dominant force at VFL level.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #44 Luker Kentfield

      An exciting young key forward, Kentfield was selected in the 2024 mid-season draft but has yet to make his AFL debut. He was sidelined by a severe bout of pneumonia over the summer, which consequently limited his pre-season. Upon his return a month into the season, he commenced in defence but ultimately impressed with his progress at Casey, particularly in the latter part of the season as a strong marking goal kicking forward.

    • AFLW REPORT: West Coast

      Melbourne’s response to last week’s heartbreak was emphatic, as the Demons delivered a statement win over West Coast at a windswept Casey Fields. All of the pre-match hype surrounded the coach’s box matchup of Mick Stinear up against his apprentice, Daisy Pearce along with the gloomy weather forecast. In the end, it was less about tactical chess and more about Melbourne’s relentless execution. With rain looming, the DeeArmy and early birds snapped up the best undercover viewing spots.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: West Coast

      Epic battle alert.  This Sunday, Casey Fields hosts a coach’s showdown pitting the wits of the master Mick Stinear (92 games, 71.7% win rate) against his protégé Daisy Pearce (16 games, 43.8%). Still early in her coaching journey, Daisy’s record doesn’t yet reflect her impact — but she’s already the best-performed coach at West Coast.Dais’ is mythic.  Like Katniss Everdeen, everyone either wants to kiss her, kill her (sporting metaphor) or be her.  Toothers Daisy Pearce is a role model, someone admired for their heart, humility and humour.

    • 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.
