The fix is in!
A further 839.7 grams of brown granules also seized were later found to be less than 1 per cent pure for ice and instead thought to be the byproduct of drug cleaning.
And a gin for a middle name?
This is a bloke who took performance enhancing drugs that changed him from being a sloppy half back flanker into a brownlow medalist after he was told by his club doctor to avoid any of the drugs that were part of what's most likely Australia's biggest organised cheating campaign, and he still believes he was hard done by when he and his fellow drug cheat teammates got away with an extremely light penalty. He is a slothenly ******* of the highest order.And a gin for a middle name?

New details in the police case against Mark ‘Bomber’ Thompson have emerged as drug trafficking allegations against him are aired in court.
Police prosecutor Geoff Adams told Melbourne Magistrates Court that Mr Thompson’s DNA had been found on seized items including 31.9 grams of ice found in a locked metal box within his Port Melbourne home.
The court on Tuesday also heard that Mr Thompson had failed to report to police, as per his bail conditions, three times.

The premiership coach is facing eight charges, including trafficking ecstasy and ice.
His legal team say he will fight the charges.
Mr Thompson's home, a converted warehouse property in Port Melbourne, was raided on January 5.
Inside, police allege they found an array of illicit substances and drug paraphernalia in areas of the apartment, including a security-coded room filled with AFL memorabilia.
Substances allegedly found in Mr Thompson's bedroom area included 134.6 grams of MDMA, 5½ Xanax tablets and methamphetamine, as well as two sets of digital scales, eight hard drives, four ice pipes and a shoe box filled with clear resealable bags.
Mr Thompson’s case will return to court in June.
More to come.
Are they the missing * records?Eight hard drives........... EIGHT?!?!?
I have two portable hard drives. And the only reason I have two is that 1&3/4 of them are filled with videos for the kids.
Who needs 8 under lock and key???
So basically saying Im rich and its not mine lolhttps://www.theage.com.au/national/...on-seized-ice-court-told-20181009-p508lf.html
Bomber Thompson has breached bail, DNA found on seized ice, court told
Are they the missing * records?
Also......
Breached bail three times.
How many times do 'average joe-bloggs' get away with this before they're plonked back in jail?
Thanks for the explanation.If its only late reporting or a failure to report that is not regular or is infrequent (ie 3 in several months like in Thompson's case) then its discretionary what happens. The cops can issue an infringement notice which is probably dealt with at the trial. If you missed 2 or more reportings in a row that might indicate you've done a runner. i think the real question about bail breaches and hat hap[pens is how much of a pita it is for the cops involved. If its more trouble than its worth to ignore a breach they'll act on it otherwise they'll do the minimum they need to as far as annoying paperwork goes. Just like the rest of us.

POLICE have accused former AFL star Mark “Bomber” Thompson of serious drug trafficking with the case against him detailed for the first time.
Thompson appeared at the Melbourne Magistrates Court this morning where his legal team failed in a bid to have the police allegations kept secret.
He had made an offer to plead guilty to some of the eight charges he is facing, but it was rejected by prosecutors.

He will now fight the case at a three-day hearing set down for June.
The main issue in the case involved multiple drug trafficking charges, prosecutor Sergeant Geoff Adam said.
Police allege they uncovered more than 40 times the traffickable quantity of ecstasy and 10 times the traffickable quantity of methamphetamine during a raid on Thompson’s Port Melbourne home.
Scales, a shoebox containing multiple empty deal bags, and a locked box containing sealed bags containing drugs were also allegedly uncovered in the January raid.

Thompson’s DNA was found on many of the items, the court heard.
“I can’t say the case is weak,” magistrate Simon Zebrowski said.
Thompson’s lawyer said he had no financial incentive or need to traffic drugs.
The court heard drugs were found in Thompson’s bedroom, a locked bedroom off that room, and in an upstairs mezzanine.
Prosecutors alleged 9.5 xanax tablets, 134 grams of ecstasy, 31.8 grams of methamphetamine, 1.33 grams of MDMA and an LSD tablet were found at the home.
Thompson was charged on May 1 with seven offences including trafficking ecstasy and ice as well as possessing ecstasy, ice, LSD and Xanax.
An additional charge of contravening a condition of bail has since been added over allegations he had failed to report to police twice.
Last month, Thompson’s housemate, 29-year-old Thomas Windsor, pleaded guilty to drugs charges.

He was also arrested and charged following the January raid.
Windsor pleaded guilty to single counts of drug trafficking and possessing items for the purpose of drug trafficking in exchange for a get out of jail card.
It came after prosecutors dropped charges of commercial drug trafficking.
Instead of further jail time Windsor was placed on an 18 month community corrections order.
He was also sentenced to 169 days’ imprisonments, but that term had already been served.
Windsor must undergo treatment and rehabilitation for drug abuse and remain under supervision throughout the term of his CCO.
“The reality is this, you’re kind of running out of chances,” magistrate Simon Zebrowski told Windsor.
“Stick clear of your old cronies. They’re no good for you,” he said.
Mr Zebrowski said Windsor had a significant criminal history and urged him to stay away from drugs.
Thompson, an AFL great, played in three flags with Essendon and later coached Geelong to two premierships.
Mr Zebrowski acceded to a request to change Thompson’s reporting obligations to police from three times weekly to just once a week.
He remains subject to a string of other strict bail conditions.
The matter will return to court in April. Thompson does not need to attend on that day.
