[inanunda]

The Lace Out podcast host Chris Pepper (me) sat down with former Footscray and Richmond star Justin Charles for a chat about his career and nothing was off limits. Justin openly talks about his steroids scandal that was a first in AFL, and one he continues to reminded about today. He also shares his passionate views on his recreational drugs and gambling in the AFL, AFLW, the Essendon drugs saga, his love for Richmond, Alastair Clarkson, and lots more.

Like Benny Gale hooked him up with the juice and Robert Walls paid for it?

Actually takes responsibility for it all and gives Essendon a good spray over their saga. I was pleasantly surprised at how open he was about it all when we were talking. Give it a listen and make up your own mind!
BTW, He was only four votes off winning the Brownlow in 1996.

"Star"?

[King Elvis]

The word 'star' has basically lost all meaning.

I saw this bloke playing for North Bendigo a few years back. He did not leave the goal square and did not have to.Big angry looking mf but great kick

 

[Ron The Bear]

"Star"?

Well he did finish 8th in the Brownlow the year before he got busted.

In one interview he claimed to have told the AFL where he got the steroids and they said, "We'll pretend we didn't hear that". Were any names named?

Do you normally sound like this or do you 'footy' it up for the microphone?

 

[Munners]

The first half an hour or so is a Richmond wank fest so don't bother listening to that. The rest was quite good, Charles absolutely hates Hird so that's interesting but the worst part was that Charles' volume was too low, worth a listen.

 

[Upgrayedd]

Gonna give it a listen when I get home. I think there is definitely a market for a good AFL podcast. I'll let you know what I think OP
