Yep.

And SBW is the highest profile league player in Australia (despite not playing league since 2008).

And this is a rugby league story.

And people are not allowed to bag Sonny's boxing ability because the guy he was fighting was on drugs.

:sarcasm:

Some are claiming on twitter there was no test and the FairFax story was bogus. More to apparently come from News Ltd tomorrow. Not sure how much truth in this.

It was one of Danny's best. Hilarious.
Was of importance to League fans and NZ'ers apparently.

Thanks pal. That's the tweet I read that Karmichael Hunt retweeted. I wasn't aware he was a Courier Mail journo.

Did Channel Nine "break the news" here? Surely Weidler's time is up in mainstream media as he is seen as a joke among the majority of the NRL community.

 

[thorson1987]

Makes sense that it is bullshit.

Cos if he was on drugs SBW would have been looking at the roof.

Danny Weidler ‏@Danny_Weidler Gee @DanGinnane @chrisgarry1 that would be interesting ... I've got a copy of the official lab results.

 

[Fufu Andronez]

This fool has ruined the news. For gods sake man get your mug off my tv screen, sick of hearing your generic Nasser/quade/SBW/mundine/code in crisis/ shit!!!

 

[@MarTiger]

Where is the popcorn?

 

[@MarTiger]

Andrew Webster having a shot now too:

Andrew Webster @awebstar1
@Danny_Weidler I'm very impressed by your pronunciation of the substances on live TV earlier.

 

[thorson1987]

And how would he get his hands on the lab reports.

Nasser and co wouldn't be privy to them.

@chrisgarry1: I am only passing on what my sources tell me which is this whole story is "bizarre" and exceptionally rare for a boxer in Aus to be tested.

Could this reporter now be trying to cover his ass.

1. If Weidler is being spoon fed a bogus story that he is eating up without researching it - shame on him and this will be his career down the tubes in this country. No editor or producer will want a bar of him.

2. If Weidler is spot on and he does have official results from a test that happened, good on him. He did his job. No medals given out for doing what you're paid well to do.

I am not clued in on the testing procedures in boxing any more - I thought pre-fighting testing wasn't something out of the ordinary in any country when a title is on the line.
