AFL drugs charge

[fish]

Would an AFL ban cover other leagues such as SANFL, VFL etc?

[rod_rooster]

Sounds to me like he was just being a "good mate".

ROFLMAO Yep, good mate that is.

[dedja]

I think he should be in more trouble for trafficking that bloody moustache.

Mistaken identity perhaps?

Don't you have choir practice? You can put ya head back in the sand and pretend drugs aren't everywhere. If all the footballers that had taken illicit drugs were banned for life, you would have to lace up the boots for Hawthorn.

He may get delisted and his career may be in jeopardy, but I still feel sorry for the poor bugger. Coke is no worse than an ecky and if the afl found out about all of the players that took ecky's, there wouldn't be many players left running around.

I think you would just wind up the AFL and every other league of every other code

Yes but some live with the fairies and think it doesn't happen. The youth of today are taking lots of drugs, and it ain't pot.

I wouldn't restrict the demographics ...

Interesting that some Cats supporters are seemingly brushing this aside and suggesting this isn't that bad yet when other high profile players from other clubs are not charged with any offence or have been proven to have done anything wrong they jump all over it like a dog with a bone

Wedgie i am not referring to you for what it's worth.

If he's guilty, he'll go and rightly so.

Um, no it's a bit more serious than that.

If it is, he deserves to go, but things are often made out to be a lot worse than they actually are a lot of the time. If he was organising some coke for some mates, he is silly, yes. Not enough to get the arse for though. I know a lot of people can't relate to that, but it night be time to get your head out of the sand. It is going on everywhere,

[Rik E Boy]

My head isn't in the sand cracker but perhaps yours is. Some of your comments tend to suggest that Coke and Ekky use is a bit of harmless fun. This has little to do with my understanding that yes, the issue is obviously more prevelant than is publicly known *injunction cough*.

I have lost a mate and nearly lost a relative to drug use, hardly harmless fun in my book. I'm pretty disappointed in Matty Stokes at the moment. To me it's a worry that he has already been charged.

It's not harmless fun at all. I'm just saying it is more prevelant than some here realise. I can guarantee you, that if the AFL had a no strike rule on positive drug use, there would be a hell of a lot of good AFL players playing country football.

So suggesting that a person helping another person to obtain and either consume or distribute illicit drugs makes me a choirboy FFS It's a strange world.

Feel free to list all the drug offences that Hawthorn players have been charged with if that makes you feel better. Oh that's right, that's all heresay and conjecture. Not suggesting for one second that Hawthorn or any club is completely clean of these sort of things but after all the crap that has come Hawthorn's way from Geelong supporters it's interesting to see the reaction to this to say the least.

[Bum Crack]

Hahaha. Disgruntled Hawks supporter. If he is guilty, he will go. I'm just saying a lot of you don't realise how prevelant it is.

And I didn't suggest it was harmless fun. Before you post my first comment, look at my response where I said I was being sarcastic.

[dedja]

I'm just saying a lot of you don't realise how prevelant it is.

True, we're all old farts who have no idea what people get up to these days ...

Mate, it doesn't matter how prevalent it is ... I'm not sure how that's relevant to whatever penalty the man should incur if he has a case to answer.

Based on your logic, we should let everyone off who speeds because there's lots out there who do it but don't get caught.

So if he is guilty of a crime, he has to do the time. Pretty simple equation really.

[rod_rooster]

Hmmm, care to list the drug offences any Hawthorn players have been involved in? Prevelant or not your mob are quick to jump on others when there are no facts to support the accusations but get very defensive when a player from Geelong is actually charged by the police.

Getting a bit defensive there rod. I mentioned Hawthorn 'cause you are a Hawthorn supporter. Maybe read the sentence again. ALL FOOTBALLERS.

And If I was going to obtain drugs, I would obtain them through someone I could trust. Much safer. I'm sure Stokes wasn't pushing drugs on his mate. His mate would of got the drugs from somewhere anyway.
