Seven players from a Victorian club are involved in a drug issue, to be broken on Chanel 7 News at 6:00pm.

Should we be worried, if we were on drugs, AND playing this badly, then things are worse for us than we thought :D

 

The story has just been broken on Channel 10 News.

****s currently meeting with the AFL about it.

Would expect a statement later tonight.
 

I like how these private, top-secret medical documents were discovered - "I found them in the gutter" :lol:

Anybody got any more news?

... or even i was reading the docs and forgot I left them on the table :lol:
 
Apparently either seven or ten actually paid for the documents.

That shows some class journalism.

Cheque book jounalism - I hate it!


Five of the seven are allegedly top of the tree at ********* :o Big names indeed!

Wow that is huge and big :o

So I missed this on the news, so are we talking illegal drugs or performance enhancing?

Any link to a story?

This story entitled "***** BUSTED FOR DRUG USE" might help a bit, Condemned 84. I think there might be a bit more to it than reported here though.


Cheers for the link, was just on Channel 7 that they cannot name the players or the club due to a Supreme Court injunction, so we need to be careful from here on.

I wonder if this will upset this club for the rest of the season?

This is what the AFL site is saying - COURT ACTION OVER AFL STORY and in the circumstances we'll go into lockdown until it's safe to open up again. For those who don't know the name of the club it's not Melbourne and we definitely won't merge this topic with any other.

Edit: The following additional newspaper stories hve been published this morning - DRUG SHOCKS TOP MELBOURNE CLUB

- DRUGS CLAIM ROCKS AFL

It appears that the Supreme Court injunction was obtained on behalf of the doctor treating the players and it prevents publication of the players' names and the club they represent. In the circumstances we will remain in lockdown on the subject.

If you value the facilities that your club's supporter websites provide I suggest that, for the time being you refrain from commenting on this subject on Demonland or Demonology.

  • PREVIEW: Richmond

    A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

  • NON-MFC: Round 07

    Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
