OK, you must want Carlisle out as well then as they both took the same drug.
If illicit drug use is drug cheating there would be a lot of players losing their contracts.
And so they should, I'm about as anti-drugs you can get, shouldn't be acceptable anywhere, IMO, seen close up what drugs do to people, if your happy to endorse drugs, that's your call!!!!!
Immature and ridiculous comment, where have I written that I endorse drugs.
Merely stating the similarity between Jake and Lauchie.
I said 'If', how's that an immature and ridiculous comment?????
My opinion is one strike, your out, too many chances makes it too easy!!!!!
How many Ben Cousins cases will we have in 10 years?????
Society far too soft on Drugs as a whole, IMO!!!!!
Absolute sanctimonious drivel, a minuscule percentage of drug users become addicts most are completely functioning members of society. If you don't like drugs that's fine but to endorse this zero tolerance attitude for footballers is ridiculous, as if people shouldn't be allowed to make mistakes in their life (and taking drugs as a professional footballer is definitely a bad choice) and get a second chance.
Plus you share your nick with a wrestler who probably sprinkled steroids on his cornflakes...

The AFLPA could turn around tomorrow and drop the out of season testing for recreational drugs.
It doesn't impact on the integrity of the game, just the reputation of the players.
I do not condone the use of drugs and have never taken any (save alcohol and caffeine) in my life but to call for a one strike policy is just ridiculous.
They're footballers, not heavy machine operators or emergency service workers. Their actions on the field do not affect the health and safety of others.
And, if they have illicit drugs in their system on match day then they're subject to suspensions under WADA.

Quite aware of all of that, thanks, drug use does effect the game, not just the players, so happy to stick with my opinions on drugs!!!!!
By offering several chances is condoning drug use in my eye's, my opinion is my opinion is just that, mine!!!!!
Last time I looked, drugs were illegal in society full stop, has that changed?????
'Cause StoneCold Said So'!!!!! We will be great again once Billy is back playing!!!!!

Speeding is illegal but just about every single driver does it. And I cant remember to many people being charged with using drugs but they do get charged with possession. If you get pulled over by a drug bus and are positive they don't charge you with using. They charge you with driving with drugs in the system. Anyway I don't think we should test for drugs. What job tests for drugs if it isn't dangerous to others?

Anyway, back to the topic, I reckon if you wanted Rockliff he could be a cheapie. Would have been last year, he wanted out, they wanted him gone,
no-one was interested. He seems to have pulled in his head abit don't know if anyone wants him.
I'm undecided whether we need him or not, we still need more outside I think.
Kelly for me, Fyfe not leaving.
2.05 million that is the increase in salary cap for next year.
The more you know, the more you know you don't know.
When I was a young child, I knew that I knew so much about so much.
Now that I am old and know so much more, I know that I know so much about so little, and so little about so much.
