Richie Fa'aosos says that he had a drug problem after 2013 (he was with the Eels in 2015).

“Whatever I could get my hands on, I smashed. Mostly pills and coke. If I could get my hands on anything I would.”

He said he ran the “gauntlet” to beat drug tests and doesn’t know how he never got caught. Fa’aoso started taking ice after he fractured his neck while playing for the Sea Eagles in 2013 — and that is when his problems really hit home.

“When I hit that ice, that was the one that really sent me cuckoo,” he said.

“That is when I went through my darkest time.”

What he wants to do now is turn his life around and he hopes by talking about it he can also help others.

I knew a chick who knew Fa'aoso when he was just a teenager at the Panthers. She said he was a really nice bloke, unlike all the other Panthers she used to bang.
