What a turnip. Him and Hock are both brain doners anyway, at least Newton's done it when his best days are behind him.

he may not get a 2 year ban. The RU guy didnt who said it was taken in the off season which Newton did. Forgot his name

It all depends what he has allegedly taken

Stupid Terry, so close to the end of his career too.

It's funny though, if it's common knowledge that two players have taken substances through out their career, the difference of being simply being caught could result in one good player at the end of his career being accused of being a disgrace to the game or on the other hand you could be classed as a legend and have a statue erected in your home town centre.

Exactly!

Close

KC is a legend though, Superleagues greatest player and the only blemish is being suckered by that dude who pretended to be a qualified doctor, one whom also fooled the RFL. Newton on the other hand, if found guilty, has just added another stamp to an already carwreck career. He will be remembered as a shocking waste of talent and a thug, one who will no doubt end up in the gutter once his career has finished. No scrap that, he wont even be remembered, except by wigan fans for giving them the only thing to cheer in 10 years by doing what he does best, smashing peoples faces in. GG

Of course he was mate, taking a 'fat burner' because he couldnt run on a broken arm, is the worst excuse in the history of bad excuses. Has he never heard of an excercise bike?

Those legal fat burners have never ever been proven to work, and i cant believe your lot fell for it hook line and sinker, just because he a player for your team.

Get your head out of the sand, drug use, recreational or otherwise is rife in 95% of sports.

There isnt only one BALCO in the world!

What a player Tezza was at Wigan! Whilst other big time charlies were also failing drugs tests and walking out on their country Tezza was far and away the best 9 in the country. It's no wonder he's done what he's done is it. Shame the RFL weren't paying his wages or maybe he would have got off as well?

His career ended the day he was sold 2 Bradford for a player who isn't fit 2 lace his jock strap. It's a shame that a few mistakes like this one will now mean he doesn't get the respect he deserves as a great RL player.

Still a Wigan legend IMO

mmmmmmmmnnnnnn Unadultarated child's p*ss

Hes never been in the top 2 hookers at any point of his career. Was always in the shadows of Lowes and KC. No wonder he resorted to performance enhancing drugs. With Lowes out of the way and KC pretty much retired, plus the performance enhancing drugs, he may, just may have managed to get on a par with the likes of Micky Higham or Malcolm Alker
