Message: [QUOTE="trigrhappi, post: 2082956, member: 1884"] Thanks to [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nathan_Baggaley[/url] [i]That happened in September 2005 when the paddling world was shocked to learn that Baggaley had tested positive for banned steroids, (stanozolol and methandienone). The Court of Arbitration for Sport banned him from the sport for 24 months. Baggaley said that he had been drug-tested at least fifty times in his career and had always tested negative. He maintained that he had taken the steroids by accident and that he intends to use the ban as a rest and return to competition afterwards [1]. In February 2007 police stopped Baggaley and a companion in Mermaid Waters, northern NSW and on searching their car they found "nearly 800 ecstasy tablets, an unspecified white powder, cannabis and cash". Prior to his arrest, Baggeley's girlfriend had been world record-breaking swimmer Sophie Edington, who ended their two-year relationship a week before the arrest. In July 2007, he was charged after allegedly stealing a surf ski from the Byron Bay Surf Club. Among his coaches is Peter Clark, a former teacher at the Taipei American School. In November 2007 Baggaley has been jailed and is facing more drug charges after being arrested in connection with the manufacturing and trafficking of ecstasy. The new charges come a month after Baggaley, who won two silver medals for Australia at the 2004 Athens Olympics, was told he cannot return to competition due to other pending drug charges after serving a two-year ban for taking steroids.[/i] Very interesting to see that he has a link to the new golden girl of the pool eusa_think [/QUOTE]
