AFL Drug Scandals

Drug Scandal

Links : AFL | AFL News

THE AFL illicit drugs policy was in crisis last night as confidential medical records identifying two players who had tested positive to illegal drugs were sold to a commercial television station.

The documents contain explosive claims against two players from the same club and became the subject of a legal injunction last night, taken out by the doctor who is treating the two men.

The documents also contain claims that other players at the club regularly use drugs.

The legal action came too late to stop Channel Seven airing the allegations as part of its news bulletin. The report did not identify the players but did disclose their club, as well as details about the frequency and nature of their drug use.

The club was scrambling last night to try to learn the names of the players from the AFL, damaged by the public leak of information that senior club officials were not entitled to be told.

Under the AFL's controversial three-strikes illicit drug policy, clubs cannot be told of a player's drug use until he has returned a third positive test. That system — attacked by the Federal Government as too lenient in recent months — was in crisis last night.

The documents, which were paid for by Channel Seven, appear to be medical records of two players, referred to Ivanhoe's Victorian Addiction Centre by the clubs.

Under the three-strikes policy, after the second positive test, a club doctor is told.

Conclusion :

Leave the players and their private lives alone, we have no rights to their private lives and what they do in their spare time is up to them, as long as they're not taking performance enhancing drugs it shouldn't be a matter of public debate or released to the public.

If they were a musician it would be acceptable and laughed upon like Britney, Nicole Richie etc.

What about the injections during games, the pain killer shots ? aren't these a enhancing drug ? what about Brisbane's reign of premierships typically the Grandfinals against Collingwood where numerous players felt the force of many hard hits only to get injections so they would no longer feel the pain and or impact of the hard hitting game, these should be ruled out shouldn't they ? after all they are performance enhancing in effect. Compared to party drugs that don't produce in game brilliance but actually the opposite effect.

The Coaches Said :

Paul Roos Said :"I think it was a reasonable sort of game, I think it was the conditions and look, to be honest, I thought the Kangas were the better team for most of the day," Roos said after the match."Credit to our guys to be able to play probably 50 minutes maximum of good footy but the last quarter they really turned around, our boys, and hit in and our forwards started to become a lot more aggressive and lively."Look, to get over the line today was great when not playing too well."

Dean Laidley Said :"At the end of the day, we're just looking for a win and we didn't get that today," Laidley said."It's the best we've probably played in a month, but it doesn't satisfy us."

Sydney Swans FC 1st. win at Home - AFL Blog 2006

The Sydney Swans have won their first home match of the season, downing a disappointing Geelong by 22 points at Telstra Stadium on Saturday night.

The Swans, who had been beaten in their earlier two home matches at the SCG this year, gained the ascendancy in the second quarter and despite the Cats threatening to make

charges at different stages, were always in
control and went on to win
15.17 (107) to 13.7 (85).

Barry Hall booted four goals and starred for the Swans, while Adam Schneider, Jude Bolton and Michael O'Loughlin were also prominent for the winners.

Hall was giving Matthew Scarlett the slip and he had plenty of it in the first quarter as well as booting a goal.

But Geelong, with Gary Ablett and Paul Chapman looking creative, led by a goal at the first break.

A costly turnover from an out-of-sorts Scarlett - who was moved off Hall mid-way through the quarter - gave Goodes his first goal, and when Schneider and Craig Bolton booted late goals the Swans led by 20 points at half-time, 7.11 to 5.3.

Hall, who had three goals, and O'Loughlin could have put Geelong away before the last change but missed relatively easy chances, although the home side still led by 24 points at three-quarter time.

But Hall booted his fourth to spell the end for Geelong, and two more goals to Schneider and another to Goodes ensured the Sydneysiders celebrated their first win on home soil for the year.

SYDNEY: 3.3, 7.11, 11.16, 15.17 (107)
GEELONG: 4.3, 5.3, 9.4, 13.7 (85)

GOALS – Sydney: Schneider 4, Hall 4, C. Bolton 2, Goodes 2, J. Bolton, O'Keefe, O'Loughlin
BEST – Sydney: Schneider, Hall, O'Loughlin, O'Keefe, Williams, J. Bolton
