[THE 18th Man]

shocking news. and with his friend Gaz being suspended last year it makes you think that if Newton thought he could get away with it then who else thinks they can get away with it. a player in his 30's being done for taking drugs. what went through his head.

Peter Kay summed it up last night... What a ****head?!

Last November i've just heard on 5live radio.

Feel quite gutted as if he's one of our own if you know what I mean. What is the cost of success?

Found out last nite while i was out, can't beleive Tez has been so daft, prob finish his career now. Not the best way go out. Silly lad, but still like him and think he was/is good player.
Soft lad tho.

I agree with everything paul cullen said on boots n all last night (thats a first), but I cant believe the RFL are letting drug cheats get away with it over a money issue, like mr Cullen said it should be everyone mandatory no exceptions and I dont believe theres a difference between recreational and performance enhancing, DRUGS ARE DRUGS END OF!. Too many people in our game are getting caught, paul cullen said there was a major problem in our game in not so many words last night and I do agree with him, the greatest game in the world but not the cleanest game in the world it needs sorting quick sticks. Also Brian Carney looked like a rabbitt caught between the headlights last night he looked bewildered but as brian said it seems that a 2 year ban is not enough of a deterrent we need harsher punishments, they were bob on with what they said last night.

Everything Cullen said was spot on. Pay particular attention to the growth hormone quotes because they are so true and incredibly relevant to what happened yesterday.

serious it isn't coke?

i didn't think growth hormone was detectable on tests?
