To put sponsors, fans and every body else that has a vested interest in our great game at some kind of ease, why haven't any coaches, presidents, chairmen of any of the other 15 teams come out and said that their club is 100% drug free?? :confused::confused: Who on this forum would state that their club is 100% drug free??

You'd think with the roasting the Eagles are getting atm, that any team that is completely drug free would like to advertise the fact.

The silence is deafening.
















Maybe it's because NONE of them are. Think about it before you jump up on your soap-box. ;);)

of course none of us are.

Alcohol - drug
nicotine - drup
cafeine - drug
love - drug

Oh you mean "recreational"?

well since society and curiosity can combine to make a powerful reason to try them, the problem isn't going to go away. the issue is bigger than that.
give ordinary people lots of money and spare time and things happen - gambling, drugs, abuse of power and privilege, etc.

the problem won't go away and nothing any one person does will change it.

A societal change will have more effect in the long run but who is going to get off their bum to galvanise such a way?

they can't claim that because they don't know...

until the clubs are a party to testing results it would be a very foolish administrator to make such a claim.

Coming out and saying a club is drug free could be seen as an insult to the WCE/ That, and other clubs shouldn't have to prove themselves just because of the culture of another club.

You aren't going to be able to shift the focus away from the WCE on this matter, so don't bother trying.

Probably every club has players who take drugs.

Deafenitely one club has a player who takes drugs.

I'm sick of these weagles fans trying to deflect the attention off themselves.

The fact is, their club has serious issues and deflecting it isn't gunna help anything.

Deflection, well yes partially but there is a lot of truth in what hes saying

What was Dale Lewis' statment a few years back? Around 80% of the league used recerational drugs? Consider old Dale was a Swans player you would imagine a lot of his figures would be based on socialising with his own team mates.

Still think the Swans are clean?
