    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”.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      It’s late February. Two teams widely predicted to finish near the foot of the AFL table in 2026 face off against each other in sweltering 30-degree heat deep in outer suburbia in a match simulation with fresh new faces and uneven team numbers. There are no nearby sheep stations on offer; the result promises nothing more than bragging rights for the winner. Nevertheless, the loser appears hopelessly adrift, whereas the other seems to have found its footing after a couple of years of struggle – perhaps a hint at bigger things to come?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      It was only a preseason match but the new look Demons spearheaded by new coach Steven King looked impressive as they put on a clinic against perennial cellar-dwellers North Melbourne as they cruised to an 80 point victory at Casey Fields.
