Can we take his mark over Maxie off him. He seemed quite high then ????

I think it was his brother Fly’n Ryan who took that mark.

Someone's definitely taking the [censored] here. 

See all the essenscum fans up in arms saying we never tested positive, west coast should be kicked out of finals. Even Sam Newman is having a crack. They still don't get it do they? They were suspended because they bought the game into disrepute. They were injected with substances which no one could tell what it was, they were taken off site to get injected and failed in there duty of care. 

But how dumb is Rioli? What did he substitute his urine with and also he should have known these ASADA people are not stupid. They would have seen every trick before and would have been able to tell straight away. A very silly move indeed. 

 

When I heard the news headline about a Rioli and a drug test shock, I immediately thought of the West Coast one. Now, why is that??


But when you do a sample isn't the ASADA or WADA person meant to be standing there watching you so incidents like this don't occur? 

So if the alleged tampered test was done after rd 22, why was he allowed to play rd 23 and the elimination final?

according to one report they were there and caught him red-handed, then forced him to do another sample

but that was 3 weeks ago, so why the delay?

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.

Except integrity 

He can't be very bright if he thought a cup of Gatorade would fool the testers. Did he think they'd just think he had a high electrolyte count in his [censored]? 

It's the cynic in me - and I cannot help but think that there would be 'club/lockeroom talk' at all clubs on how to evade tests. Look at G.Allen and C Lambert with Whitfield as one example, and yes, it is just one example, but Cousins spoke about his capacity to evade testing and how certain players feel 'targeted' while others have gone years without being tested. 'Lads, we don't care what you do in your own time, its your call, just dont get caught'.


This should be easy to comprehend but feel free to aid me to fully understand. 

Randomly selected for a test, ASADA person watching him do number 1 whilst half naked and sees him swapping the sample but takes it to the lab for testing anyway or there you go Willy, pee in here and I’ll go make us some cuppas. 

How could this happen?

Athletes who fiddle with drugs these days must be [censored] knuckleheads!

Unless you are Chinese or Russian of course 

Have a read of John Ralphs piece in the herald sun just priceless.

The whole tone is wrong, its like Ohh well he is just stupid!

The AFL are in damage control through the usual mouthpieces

He should be banned straight out no excuses stupidity,mental health,my brother told me to do it NO EXCUSES

Just watch the AFL squirm and spin their way out of this. They are not serious about drugs.

Read Ben Cousins book he knew how to evade a [censored] weak system sometimes with some assistance.

  • CASEY: Sydney

    The Casey Demons were always expected to emerge victorious in their matchup against the lowly-ranked Sydney Swans at picturesque Tramway Oval, situated in the shadows of the SCG in Moore Park. They dominated the proceedings in the opening two and a half quarters of the game but had little to show for it. This was primarily due to their own sloppy errors in a low-standard game that produced a number of crowded mauls reminiscent of the rugby game popular in old Sydney Town. However, when the Swans tired, as teams often do when they turn games into ugly defensive contests, Casey lifted the standard of its own play and … it was off to the races. Not to nearby Randwick but to a different race with an objective of piling on goal after goal on the way to a mammoth victory. At the 25-minute mark of the third quarter, the Demons held a slender 14-point lead over the Swans, who are ahead on the ladder of only the previous week's opposition, the ailing Bullants. Forty minutes later, they had more than fully compensated for the sloppiness of their earlier play with a decisive 94-point victory, that culminated in a rousing finish which yielded thirteen unanswered goals. Kicks hit their targets, the ball found itself going through the middle and every player made a contribution.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    Hands up if you thought, like me, at half-time in yesterday’s game at TIO Traeger Park, Alice Springs that Melbourne’s disposal around the ground and, in particular, its kicking inaccuracy in front of the goals couldn’t get any worse. Well, it did. And what’s even more damning for the Melbourne Football Club is that the game against St Kilda and its resurgence from the bottomless pit of its miserable start to the season wasn’t just lost through poor conversion for goal but rather in the 15 minutes when the entire team went into a slumber and was mugged by the out-of-form Saints. Their six goals two behinds (one goal less than the Demons managed for the whole game) weaved a path of destruction from which they were unable to recover. Ross Lyon’s astute use of pressure to contain the situation once they had asserted their grip on the game, and Melbourne’s self-destructive wastefulness, assured that outcome. The old adage about the insanity of repeatedly doing something and expecting a different result, was out there. Two years ago, the score line in Melbourne’s loss to the Giants at this same ground was 5 goals 15 behinds - a ratio of one goal per four scoring shots - was perfectly replicated with yesterday’s 7 goals 21 behinds. 
    This has been going on for a while and opens up a number of questions. I’ll put forward a few that come to mind from this performance. The obvious first question is whether the club can find a suitable coach to instruct players on proper kicking techniques or is this a skill that can no longer be developed at this stage of the development of our playing group? Another concern is the team's ability to counter an opponent's dominance during a run on as exemplified by the Saints in the first quarter. Did the Demons underestimate their opponents, considering St Kilda's goals during this period were scored by relatively unknown forwards? Furthermore, given the modest attendance of 6,721 at TIO Traeger Park and the team's poor past performances at this venue, is it prudent to prioritize financial gain over potentially sacrificing valuable premiership points by relinquishing home ground advantage, notwithstanding the cultural significance of the team's connection to the Red Centre?

  • 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.
