Jason Smith charged cocaine trafficking

[El Diablo]

seems about correct.

the QLD judicial system and the Reds handed Hunt about the same penalty that Vic judicial system and Geelong and the AFL handed Stokes for the same thing.

the other guys are being defended by monkeys unless they have them on more than what Hunt was doing.

no harm, no foul.

googled him and he was fined bugger all http://www.australiantimes.co.uk/afl-stokes-cops-huge-ban-following-drug-trafficking-charges/

- Stokes will be fined $5,000, the maximum sanction under the AFL player?s code of conduct.

Surely ASADA will still ban him under Rule Violation 6 (although the investigation and hearing has been scheduled for December 2032).

[El Diablo]

they won't

 

[BunniesMan]

WADA has basically washed its hands of out of competition recreational use which makes sense. Western countries are on the path to decriminalisation and even legalisation of use. Athletes shouldn't be held to a special standard when not competing. Nobody is doing a line of coke to get an advantage on the field.

haven't open the link but wada don't enforce penalties for recreational drugs taken "out of competition", don't see why asada would be any different.

Weed is about the only illicit drug that I can think of that is under any consideration of legalization in Western countries.

I knew you were an expert at taking c**k, I didn't know you were an expert in taking coke as well.

Can someone please explain why Hunt got 6 weeks from the ARU and yet Sailor got 2 years?

 

[El Diablo]

Sailor tested positive on game day

 

[Thomas]

Sailor tested positive on game day

Yeah. This. He failed a test during competition.

Hunt hasn't failed a test. Well, as far as we know.

 

[Canard]

Sailor tested positive on game day

Yeah. This. He failed a test during competition.

Hunt hasn't failed a test. Well, as far as we know.

Also Sailor was surplus to requirements at that stage of his career, whereas the ARU clearly see a lot of potential payoff in Hunt.

If Hun was the wrong side of 30 I'd dare suggest he may not have been so lucky.

How many tests to Sandor Earl and that reserve grade bloke fail to get their bans?

 

[betcats]

Didnt Sandor admit to it?

 

[oikee]

Yeah, forget all that. What have we learned. ?
K.Hunt is a sack of shite and union does not care if he smokes, snorts or does debbie or dallas.

The Titans are about to reach a all-time record membership, which means they are loved, wanted and respected, unlike K.Hunt and union.

Their is God, the Masses, then the Devil,,,,,and under all that sits Union.

You do know NRL players don't get suspended on a 1st strike for recreational drug use?

 

[betcats]

Surely the league players couldnt be facing harsher legal penalties than Hunt, just plead guilty and cop the wrist slapping instead of dragging this shit out because they feel hard done by.

 

[Perth Red]

he was banned for being charged and being in the paper, not using. Same as NRL, if you get caught using no problem, if you get in the media due to being in caught for possession you cop a fine and ban. Its a weird world where bad press is seen as a worse issue than doing illegal drugs lol.

You're not right in the head, are you pal?

no different to criminal and civil law, instead of taking k.hunt to the courts to sue him for brand damage, the aru fine and suspend him as part of their own code of conduct.
