Message: [QUOTE="1910, post: 3610274, member: 8272"] It's the doctors not the clubs, the AFL say it's wellbeing and education focused. So, if you fail an inhouse club test, the doctor lets the AFL know and they educate and help you while not letting you play so you don't fail a test on the weekend and have to sit out and have a strike. There would be coaches that have no idea that their player doesn't have a hammy injury and is sitting out because he failed an inhouse test. The issue is the AFL have a three strikes policy but now we know it's three strikes plus two others secret ones. "We understand that the illicit drugs policy can be improved, and we are working with the AFLPA and players to improve the policy and the system to ensure we are better able to change the behaviours of players. But we are unapologetic about club and AFL doctors taking the correct steps to ensure that any player who they believe has an illicit substance in their system does not take part in any AFL match and that doctor patient confidentially is upheld and respected."
