General Discussions

[LP]

I know quite well a player who regularly sourced a 'bag' and got on the snort reasonably regularly and it was somewhat of a culture at this particular club... and that was well into the 2000s.

True, but even so the testing then wasn't what it is now.

Even if we do not know, the AFL surely do!

We see this growing trend for players to take some time away from the game, it is often written off as mental health, it won't be all cases but I'm certain some of them will be strikes that we the general public know nothing about. The problem is we do not want to the speculation, it helps nobody, but it's surely up to the player to expose their own issues if they feel fit to do so!

I suspect eventually the culture will change, and these issues will be discussed more freely.
