Its a ******* joke that players should be woken up by 'drug testers' at 5 am when their asleep. Why cant they stand out the front of the club in the morning and grab them before training?
Most people would call the cops if someone was demanding to be let in at that hour

So Prestia to Richmond, Omeara to Essendon and Swallow to Kangaroos? BRILLIANT.

So glad none of these guys are going to a top 4 club, gives me hope we can compete next year.
Interesting that basket case clubs are getting headline stars to nominate their club.
 
With the Whitfield case, people should have a look what happened to Rio Ferdinand, and he didn't deliberately miss a test was a complete accident and got banned for eight months. This should be much much more if deliberate.

Those 3 have entered an AFL team where their only role models are those that have jumped ships for piles of cash. It's hardly surprising that they have learned that money is king and are using that, rather than success, to make their decisions.

Whitfield didn't miss a test though.

This "I nominate"crap is doing my head in, may as well abolish the draft and then just let the kids "nominate" their club of choice
 
The talent drain to Victorian clubs is well out of hand. It's not just Vic kids either, kids from all over the country are wanting in on the action.

Syd and GWS have various concessions to counter this. SA and WA clubs are caught in the middle. No one wants to be there and AFL won't assist given they a both traditional footy States.

Didn't he? I've been busy so haven't read story I thought the implication was he did....?

Nah they weren't looking for him, sounds like he just texted his GF saying he hopes they don't test him. By the sounds of it, he had a migraine, probably took a pain killer that wasn't approved, had a freak out moment, but no one was trying to test him and he didn't miss any tests.
 
Why do they want to play us there? Is that Pannell's hometown?

They want a side that is current top 8 for 'blockbuster status' and they know they won't get granted any Victorian teams there. I don't know the dimensions of the ground but I'd be willing to bet Sydney were excluded from contention because the bulldogs think the ground would suit them. Eagles will be spared because it'd mean even more travel for them.

I'd put a tenner on it that they asked for Port Adelaide and the journo messed it up.

Makes sense in a way as it will encourage fans to drive down and stay in Ballarat.

JB has been banging on about this for 2 years. Why have contracts or FA if anyone can just walk and demand a trade to X.

About time the AFL levelled the field a bit with respect to trading. They should get more say than they do.

Giving the kid WAY too much favorable assumptions there. He was hiding from the Illicit drug test, not performance enhancing for a start which rules out your migraine theory. Furthermore illicit drugs have a 3 strike policy so unless he has already used up his first 2 strikes there'd be no reason to panic, if he HAS used up his first 2 strikes on illicit drugs then it's probably not migraine medication that concerns him.
