    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”.

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

    • POSTGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
