I'm not getting carried away, merely asking a question.
Is it beyond Sport England and the RFL to do a shake down of every SL player if there are rumours flying around? I'm guessing the resources required and potential fall out would be too great? I know it's potentially tarring everyone with the same brush, but it'd sure send out a message. Drugs and professional sport don't mix.

If so many people are aware of numerous player behaving like this, why don't they just test every player in SL catch the lot of them?
It's looking like he'll quite rightly get the book thrown at him, any other players who have behaved in the same way will be cacking it now, but will probably be looking at ways of masking it as mentioned, and then once it's all blown over in a couple of months they'll be back to there old tricks. |

Thats what they have the drug testing for. |

| Quote Last Son of Wigan="Last Son of Wigan"Forget Hock he's now gone if he's out for two years.
In the backrow we have Flanny Farrell and Mossop all dying for a spot. They are the future and lets hope they have a better attitude to professional sports.
They are all quality talents with lots of prospects.
Now we'll have more CAP space for more signings in key areas.
Props a 7 and maybe a FB.'"
Do you ever talk about anything other than the team for next year? 
One of the worst days for Wigan RL in the last few seasons and your on about how we can spend his money! |

Get real. They have drug tests, the players make sure they are clean for when the tests come round. Thats how it works. |

| Quote Ancient & Loyal="Ancient & Loyal"I've just looked on Wikipedia (although not always totally accurate) at the prohibited substance Benzoylecgonine. It says that it is the primary metabolite of cocaine. However it is used as the main pharmaceutical ingredient of a prescription drug, Esterom which is a solution for the relief of muscle pain.
Maybe I'm clutching at straws here, but is it possible that he's slipped up and taken the substance accidentally via a pain relief tablet?'"
And the fact that, as far as I'm aware from my 10 minutes of searches, you cannot purchase Esterom in Uk stores, as it is currently only available in America?
He was a great talent, but he's been stupid and has thrown that all away.
I don't think that he should be allowed to play again. |

mine gets taken off and yet stuff like this, which is more or less saying the same thing is ok?
All I said is that I'm sure Wigan RL isn't the only club in both cosdes where things like this go on. |

Better than all the doom and gloom. Why not focus on the positives? Sorry if i'm not feeling self pity.
I look to the future. |
