Would be surprised if anything significant comes out of this baron......the bloke sounds like he has been taking his own gear IMO.

Haha let's hope so.
I don't understand why he'd do it unless he's had a falling out with Ash.

Since he's admitted to being involved in match fixing, cant he go to jail for it? As well as drug dealing. I find it hard to comprehend why anyone would put themselves in the shit like that.

Yeah very odd.

I have heard stories of the Lions acting up in their premiership days. A lot of boys loved the reefer apparently.

Should be no surprise to anyone, Pike was at the club at the time, would hardly think any of the drugs were performance enhancing and we didnt have illicit drugs policy at the time

I would guess McGrath himself, Brown, Black, and maybe Adcock?

The players involved mightn't all be at the Lions now.
But I reckon you're probably right about Black, Brown and McGrath.
Adcock didn't come to the club until later.

Think outside of Brisbane. The quote was there are 4 playing AFL.
There are others playing AFL ex Brisbane; Brennan, MacDonald, Clark for example.
For every one I miss I am closer to a hole in one.
