Yeah what the hell. That is a completely brainless action.

The other alternative is that ASADA dun goofed and that the substance is urine but the equipment f’ed up. If that happens I'd be feeling dirty as hell.

He would of been better off testing positive tampering with a Urine sample is a 4yr suspension.

He subsituated someone else Urine as his own, sooo whoever provided the sample would be in big s**t as well.

Some Eagles supporters must been drinking some of Riolo’s sample.

Eagles have history of drug problems Mainwaring in the 90’s, Cousins in the 00’s and now Rioli. Only difference is Rioli was caught out during the season.

Sorry but I think saying things like that is taking things a bit too far and not very fair to Rioli. Mainwaring and Cousins both had (have) a serious drug problem and whilst Rioli obviously has a case to answer, to lump him in with them is simply wrong.

Mainwarings problems arose because of Ben Cousins and his associates, very late 90s but more mid 2000s. The guy who was the biggest issue at that time was Daniel Chick and what he introduced to a lot of guys in that group who are still suffering today.

The Eagles named their best clubman award after Mainwaring. He stands as the epitome of what they want their players to aspire to

Ken Judge raised the drug problem with the board during his stint as coach. However, after Judge left favourite son Worsfold takes over and the pharmacist turned a blind eye to Cousins and co. Eagles have a lot to answer for the welfare of some of their players.

Let’s not get to disrespectful imo , the guy Isn’t here anymore

Lot of people have drug problems

 

[The King!]

Agreed, The board didn't like what Ken told them. He built the core of their success but didn't like some stars being able to do as they pleased. He was a good man.

Punts, it's not coke that caused the problems, it may have pushed them to try more but wasn't what caused the major issues.
