So in essence he has gone from getting a strike to a 1 - 4 year ban.
Very intelligent stuff.
I.must admit when I first heard about it I assume it was something like that or coke that he was trying to cover up.
More than hooch IMO. It’s amazing how he has returned from injuries several weeks quicker than expected. Either has wonderful healing properties or he is on some good stuff
The WA Sports correspondent on SEN today said he follows Willie's career very closely and has the exact same concerns as you. Said Willie is so injury prone that he's a chance to miss every week and whilst he hopes he's wrong, he seemed pretty set that he thinks Willie's likely to have taken a banned substance that helps aid recovery.

On SEN this morning they said he got caught giving a dodgy sample and that is what he is in trouble for, after he was caught they made him provide a genuine sample which I presume was clear.

Wouldn't have thought so. That's entrapment isn't it. If its roids as some are alluding to, there's no 3 strikes is there. He's cooked.

Nope, why would the tester not let him tamper and basically prove guilt.

Fairly young in his career to be getting significant injuries. I wasn't aware he was so injuried all the time. But hey you might be onto something there.
Just looked like a short fella running around.
Well the only way to sort it out would the B sample wouldn't it? I'm not 100% across the procedure of these things.
Read my reply. It is directed at you because you have double standards

Apparently not performance enhancing so its pot..or worse. Silly silly boy!
A source "close to Rioli" claims he substituted the urine for a sports drink after growing frustrated that he couldn't provide a sample citing dehydration as the reason he couldn't.

Bizarre in itself as aren't you only allowed 2 600ml bottles of water that the testers provide?

Is he really what you guys need? Between him and Bellchambers how much of a season will you get from them?
Definitely not. They are pinning their hopes on a ruckman coming off a knee injury and yet to play a game. Ryder wants 2 years and o don’t reckon he has 2 months left in him
