We had a full discussion on t
his forum regards cocaine when Zak Hardaker fell foul and received his ban. My thoughts at the time were and still are that recreational drugs such as coke is widely used amongst the population of the UK. Possibly as high as 60%.
As far as I’m aware, cocaine is not habit forming and is not a performance enhancer. If anyone is found to be using it, education and rehabilitation, should be the primary finding of any investigation. The construction industry, generally, has a zero tolerance regards drugs and I have often written to employers asking them to revisit there employment policy.
I was soundly castergated by some posters on here at the time of Hardakers ban but these people need to wake up and smell the coffee.

We all know coke or sniff as they now call it is rife in sport and rugby league. Bigger than some of you may imagine. Ive heard many first hand stories or Super League players (and coaches) being 'on it' but the thing with coke is 48 hours later its gone from your system so to get caught means youve had it very recently before training or close to a game which is very stupid as there is a come down from it that can only make performance poorer. There are also rumours abound that clubs get the nod when theyre gonna get tested and players stay away

nope, a hair test will cover a month or so, like alcohol.

Ask any divorce lawyer.

Which players have you heard about taking class A drugs and who is it that tips clubs off about forthcoming tests?

Now you know i cant say that , 1 itll get me banned and 2 itll get removed immediately anyway
