Roosters loss really - another who was basically booked to join 2021 and on...
Sharks have a few of these stories, but somehow the years leading up to...and after...the GF win, which remarkably was the 1 season they were clean ??? hmmm

What is it with the sharks and performance enhancing drugs

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Stupid stupid and more stupid!!

What is it with the sharks and performance enhancing drugs

Don’t forget Ben Barba and his issues at the Sharks

 

[Chip and Chase]

Sharks and doping is a secret love affair that has been going on for years now. Just fold them up and give the licence to an expansion club, they are a blight on the game.

 

[ALinda]

Beggars belief! What a waste of such a talented player who didn't need any 'enhancing'.

Sharkies will regret releasing Morris now and I daresay there goes their season.

Looks like it's true, Bronson aint got no right to be so exciting (no no you don't), ah Xerri baby!
(apologies to Neil diamond) 🙂

Except 2016, of course

Poor Buzz ... I'll put $10 on Josh Dugan spiking his milkshake ...

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Anobolic Steroids are the claim , oh deary deary me , silly boy ( if true).

 

[Disco]

Could have earn't 5mill over the next 10 years......what an idiot

 

[MissKate]

Shame that the sharks didn’t get a tip-off like souffs, could have sent him to that house on the northern beaches for a little escape

 

[Woodsie]

Just an aside .... how good is it that the story was a media release from the NRL ... rather than in the past it would have been a personal edict from a Grandstanding GreenTurd .... look at me, look at me ...

The cult of Personality is dead ....

He is a defensive liability, I'd have liked to have seen him up against Suli.

The media talked him up last year because he was excited at making his debut in 1st grade. I thought that was pretty lame.

 

[Woodsie]

The down side is ... that with Xerri and Morris off their books ... and Dugan likely to follow .... they will have a motza to spend on a new centre .... Suli ?

 

[Eagles2nv]

Yeap, another talented player lost to a mistake.

... and the gummies wonder why we think they are drug cheats.

 

[davohan123]

wonder what Buzz will make of this

will he go as hard in media like he did us on a number of occasions

man what is it with drugs and the sharks can't keep them apart.

 

[mave]

2016 was the one clean year ?

LMAO.
Another Greenburg sanctioned blight on the NRL.
