" Wakefield Trinity Wildcats have confirmed that Terry Newton has been provisionally suspended by the UK Anti-Doping Agency after testing positive for a prohibited substance on 24th November 2009.

Neither Wakefield Trinity Wildcats nor Terry Newton will be making any further comment on the issue until further notice."

great stuff!!!!

i thought things were going too well!

at least this sorts out the problem with fitting newton, obst and latu in the squad for the time being

Would suggest IF this is true, then the actual act of drug taking happaned before he began his Wakey contract.

At worst that will free up a fair bit of salary cap....and still leave us with Obst, Latu and Davey.

Tut tut, the naughty boy

Obviously would have to involve us at this time of greatest success and public awareness.
Am happy with Obst and Latu, and agree with the salary cap comment

just locking this for confirmation.... be patient please

he must go trough due process , but if found to be guilty I dont want to see him don the wakey shirt again ...

winners dont use

Can't really say that would be a right or wrong assumption, could be something he has taken that stays in the system for months in which case you maybe right, or he may have taken it in November whilst pre season training with us. Either way he was under contract by us at this time. Obviously no one knows what has been found in his system at this moment in time, hope to God its something he has unwittingly taken in a cough medicine or something daft like that but its very rare that's the case. We'll have to wait until the results of the second test are revealed (if they aren't already). As the thread says he has provisionally been suspended so it may noy be a clear cut case or that may be me clutching at straws!

let's not be too hasty to judge and wait for the facts please

I'm with you Mutley! If it had been a player from another RL team i'd be shouting for a ban and if Terry is found guilty then i'm sorry but he shouldn't represent Wakefield.

It's a real shame as from what glimpses we've seen he's looked good. But Sport isn't about winning at all costs whatever some may say

Are we thinking performance enhancing or recreational drugs? They both get tested for during the same tests don't they?

Agreed if guilty then out on his .

Yep if he's taken somet then cya later terry.

How can one be so stupid.
