Indeed, the flak that Dale Lewis copped for what we ultimately found out to be telling the truth was quite simply a case of people trying to bury the issue in the sand.

TV, newspaper and radio reports here in the west have acknowledged that in 2000 Ken Judge identified a number of players who were involved with people with anti-social habits and was worried about the issue.

It "appears" that the advice wasn't followed up to the extent necessary. You could blame just the one person here but another issue is how many people knew about what was going on and how many people tried to stop events spiralling down the track that they have.

I think the supression order still stands mods may edit you ....


Cheers mate thats and a good edit. The supression orders does stand and since this site can be considered media then this site would be in contempt of court. Probably best not to test the law in relation to this matter.
Read my reply. It is directed at you because you have double standards

The AFL has a major drug problem with players from all clubs, but the eagles are the only ones getting all the attention as they have cousins playing for them.

Prehaps there should be some more on the edit players which have been caught with drugs, or even something on Simon Goodwin's gambling addiction. Anything to get the attention of the eagles.

What a tender thought..Lets all spread the misery and bring a few more down and up for public ridicule that will help the situation. The infatuation with we all need to know sickens me .I dont want to know if someone has been caught .I just want the problem addressed as best as it can be.


There's all this stuff on Cousins because of his drug probs. but whenever another club or players have been caught with drugs nothing ever happens to them.

That's coz the other teams have a specialist "hushing things up and not getting caught by the police" coach.
Either that or West Coast have one too but certain players skipped training. :wink:
