    Why did they not get charged when found with drugs?  are they above the law?

    sent for counselling like they are the victims, bizarre

    Depends on the drug found and the amount. If it’s a small amount, first offence etc the legislation is they have to attend intervention sessions and not have charges preferred. It’s not above the law, it is the law.

    Think it won't affect him getting another home but hopefully it reduces his new contract offer so crows get pick 20 instead of pick 2 as compensation.

    Just spitballing, but it might have been a small amount of the substance in possession, as well as (as far as any scale can apply) accounting for the type of substance in possession.

    Without having any further detail, it's all just speculation really.

    Edit: @Ethan Tremblay not only beat me to it, but articulated it better.

    Is it an automatic strike under the AFL's drug policy?

    Not for the possession of the substance but I’m sure he’ll be subsequently tested.

    Crouch may get a diversion but this is Stengles 2nd major offence. He got into serious strife in April.

    Far better to focus on a couple of Langdon-quality players at $500K each than paying up to $1M for Crouch.

    Bet you've said that once or twice before!

    If he wasn't charged he's still a 'cleanskin', whatever that is, so it shouldn't alter Geelong's interest

    Yes, I dont think Geelong will touch him now, meaning they will go hard for Viney

    No club in the competition are cleanskins 'bobby'...

    If any club had a no illicit drug policy & really went hard to enforce it they wouldn't be able to field a team.

    cheers for the info

    I wonder if the cops don't like you much if they can charge you at their discretion? 

    like a Shannon Noll-type unofficial law

    They are footballers deebug. That does not automatically make them clever in fact I often think quite the reverse.

    They just strike me as a club that would not tolerate that sort of thing. Culture, there is a reason they have been at the top end of the league for a long time. Again, watch them come hard for Viney now

    In his defense he did say he was looking for a new deal (er)  :)

    Culture is a myth in this case...

    Just take a look at their Premiership coach (not Scott the other one) to understand that.

    Drugs are rife in all AFL clubs 'bobby', that one got out of the bag a long time ago and isn't going back any time soon.

    • NON-MFC: Round 02

      The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Sunday’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

    • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

      As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

    • PREGAME: Fremantle

      After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

    • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

      Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
