Quote: tenerifeRhino "He is a young lad taking a bit of Coke, not exactly the crime of the century.
Rugby players havery been abusing drugs and alcohol for a hundred years but it has never been reported in the press like it is today.
I feel the NRL is being very draconian these days on substance abuse, happy to throw away a young man's life by taking his livelyhood.'"
Surely he would be throwing his own livelihood away ? unless he is being forced to take banned substances by his club
Not wishing to be holier than thou but, any professional sportsman (or woman) know that they could be tested for banned substances at any time so, either, dont do it or, risk getting a ban.
