Doesn't surprise me, looked like one of the dodgiest campaigners ever to come through the system

 

[Slats]

Yeah, but what does this have to do with the Collingwood betting scandal?

 

[Mister Carlton]

AFL cover up story.

 

[Underarm]

Who?

 

[Jughead77]

Well, at least that's one positive coming from the suns this year.

id have to be high as s**t to make it through a gold coast reserves game too

 

[Igloo]

Dermie will be shattered. Crossley's debut game I think I heard him say "Goober" about 12,000 times while giggling like a child.

RIP Goober.

Since when do ASADA care about Gold Coast Suns players testing positive to banned substances?

 

[giantroo]

Who?

 

[_jrtp09_]

Who?

That’s right, you’ll never hear of a marquee player exposed ‘cause that would simply hurt the AFL brand. Surprised he hasn’t used the ever popular mental health issue defence.

Wasn't Nathan Bock done when he was there?

 

[kreglze]

Stupid thing for the bloke to do. Has been listed as out for personal reasons since middle of the season.

Similar boat to Sam Murrary.

 

[M Malice]

Brayden also looks like your quintessential 1970s porno star.

Apparently his on screen name is Buck Naked.

Once again I have to say it's time for the AFL to quit the WADA/ASADA code and if possible join together with the other big sporting leagues (NRL, NBL, A League etc) and create a drug policy that is fair and just.

He's not an Olympic athlete going up against the World, he's a young bloke getting 100k a year to play in the NEAFL against plumbers and chippies.

A 4 year ban is just way out of whack. A years ban would allow him to continue his career.

 

[DapperDon]

4 years for coke?

Yes he's stupid, but can we please leave this system that is made for Olympians already.

 

[Mofra]

Mack Horton didn't stand next to him either.

Story checks out.

This guy is only 19?

Jesus.

 

[legend166]

They get them on it quick up there don't they? The guy is only 19.

Wonder when the AFL will start actually getting serious about this. They seem to be going through the NBA 80s phase where half the league was on cocaine.

 

[Mofra]

If he needs to get rid of his mobile phone, Michael Talia 'knows a guy'

 

[giantroo]

 

[Strange Cat]

Well, at least that's one positive coming from the suns this year.

It’s not like the suns don’t have any form regarding the substance in question

 

[Plugger35]

This guy is only 19?

Jesus.

He must be doing meth as well, that sh*t ages you pretty quickly.

 

[woosha24]

Wasn't Crossley taken with the pick West Coast gave them?

Guess we're bringing the game into disrepute yet again!

 

[mouncey2franklin]

I'm shocked to be sitting here.

Seriously though, four years for coke? What a crock of s**t.

Especially since we all know the stars get away with it.

Hope he threatens to pull a Hird and take them the High Court.
