The timing couldn't have been worse with two sensational games about to unfold but Andrew Walker should get as far away from a football that is humanly possible and hang with his mates for good after testing positive to cocaine.
hy couldn't the NRL wait till after the comp finished to announce this unnessecary news!

I think it was good it was announcd now. Most of the focus is on the games at this stage so Walkers antics wont take that much focus on them whereas if this were to come out in the offseason all the headlines would be devoted to it.

Umm he didnt announce anything. He was tested and he tested positive. If they waited till the off season to announce it would be an even bigger 'cover-up' scandal.

I just want to say good on the bloke for actually putting his hand up and admitting it - instead of coming up with lame excuses like some other players who have previously tested positive.

It was just before Round 24, there's been no cover-up or lies, and the guy will now cop the two year ban/retire anyway. Leaves Manly in a small hole, but that's the risk they took when signing him...
