Just gone and completely deleted the man's career, ASADA is going to want a word with you about this.

Speaking of ASADA (moved to more relevant thread though) saw the Eagles (AFL) pulled a player just before game start because they thought he may have had one too many puffs of his ventilator.

That shows the level of care staff are supposed to be taking - other oversight aside, it also shows the level of trust the players would have had in the team staff member doing his job correctly.

To then look at it from the other angle this player apparently didn’t know there was a game day limit despite them all doing education on checking everything
Shows most players are morons, not malicious cheats

This happened in a ufc fight.
Greg hardy asked if he could use his inhaler between rounds, said it was approved by governing body, referee allowed it. Was VERY illegal.

NRL apparently trying to secure Eden Park as the venue for a Warrior's home prelim.

Have to say that would be a pretty cool sight to see, would hate to be their opponent if it happened though.

They'll probably play Brisbane in Brisbane first week, can't see them winning that.

Probably the game I'm most looking forward too, other than ours of course.

That battle in the middle is going to be amazing.

You know it goes .
Sharks finish 5th with home ground final advantage
VS
Roosters sleazing into 8th .
NRL says that Final must be played at a Stadium , Roosters home ground as Shark Park is too small.

I don't think roosters will make it, they have a good run in but I can see them dropping a game somewhere. Most likely to Souths.

So the more likely option for us in my eyes.. sharks vs cowboys if we win this week. Sharks v raiders if we lose and Raiders beat dogs.

Atleast that's what I'm betting on.

Trai Fuller debuting for the Dolphins this week. Named as 18th man but will apparently play.

This is a great reward for Fuller. He’s been a standout in Q Cup for 5+ years. Was the best on ground imo in the comp they won when Toby got MotM.

He’s a fullback. Small, but a fantastic player.

@BurgoShark do yourself a favour and listen to a presser from the Soccer World Cup. A mic is passed around, the journo has to state their name and the organisation they work for. Extremely well run.
