I can't even imagine why you'd discount the significant impact of the ongoing ASADA bullshit on the players in the first place, tbh. There's no way it's anything other than an enormous strain and burden on all of them.
It seems to me in this country, especially among men the issue of mental health is disregarded as rubbish and weak, and in such a macho culture showing any sign of struggling leads to being labelled (publicly or not) soft and less of a man. That already applies in everyday life to normal people - now consider how much that stress and strain becomes amplified when the people being affected are, by the very nature of their occupation, required to be nothing less than physically and mentally brutally tough, uncompromising, unflinching and the absolute epitome of masculinity. The naivete of downplaying the impact of this saga is mind boggling.
Anyway sorry for the off topic rant.
