Making assumptions there, mate

So ur saying that a GP sent him to Holland to get on the drugs 🥴🤔🙄

To be honest, I'm not sure how they prescribe it. Are you certain about that? Microdosing is all the buzz, but not sure if that's to do with prescribed consumption

Yeah mate 100%. I was exploring my options when dealing with depression.

Shouldn't the nrl drug testing guy's go and test A Crichton ???

 

[dazza65]

I don't

Mushies are not what I would call safe without medical supervision.
As a much younger dude I indulged several times. While I had some great laughs and it was OK overall, the buzz was so variable - from quite mild to super heavy.
The last time I had them I swore I never would again - one of the few things I have diligently stuck to.

I don't want to be "that guy" but there are no safe drugs.

Caffeine, paracetamol, alcohol, not safe in small quantities, huh?

MDMA, cannabis, morphine, psilocybin are all administered by doctors to treat a variety of issues from chronic pain to insomnia to anxiety. Not safe, eh?

EVERYTHING is dose dependent.

C'mon now, Daz, this isn't Reagan-era United States here..

If true, then It’s odd that he cut his finger off to play rugby league but he could not stay away from drugs to continue playing rugby league.

As a former police officer .. I’m 6’4” and 110kg .. too many times have I been man handled and throw around by a 15 year old on drugs (probably ice) like I was a rag doll .. Crichton is professional footballer .. he knows the right and wrongs associated with illicit drugs .. if he chooses to go down that path he has accepted the many dangers and complications associated with those drugs .. if he has stuffed up his football career / life because of the use of drugs .. that is not a NRL problem .. and they should not compensate him, or his club in any way .. !!

I think everyone's forgetting, A Crighton plays for the roosters, yes he chose to do it, uncle nick will look after him.

Ps: how's that great culture going now Crighton and some say also sualii but didn't affect him ???

Not true, nobody in the history of the world has overdosed and died from weed, for example, and it has successfully transitioned many cranky people into being non-cranky people.

Also I think it can be dangerous to not take drugs, or at least alcohol, as there's a chance you could end up bored, miserable and angry, and end up going on a murderous rampage. Hitler was a teetotaller, Osama Bin Laden was a teetotaller, there is a common denominator among such people - if only they got on the piss with mates and had a bit of a laugh more often they might have turned out differently.

Interesting take.

I’m a believer in anything and everything in moderation, (except for ice… that stuff is high risk for devastation)

Easts starting cheating when Politis came onboard in the late 70's, there were rumours not long after, below are 3 former internationals who admitted it was going on, even then the league did nothing.
These were 7 years apart, they were cheating then, and are still cheating now

Former Test stars admit being paid with brown paper bags

Kiwi international Dane Sorensen opens up about leaving Cronulla in 1984 and joining Eastern Suburbs for one season

Another Test star confesses - club paid me in brown paper bags

Former Great Britain star Bobbie Goulding claims that on arriving in Sydney he was taken to City Ford and given a car. In the glovebox, a brown paper bag full of cash. And it kept on coming.

Bobbie Goulding was a pub footballer who had an alcohol problem, he should have kept quiet.

I'm going to search on you Tube the interview Matty did with singleton I think it'll be interesting

They are quite easy to find in my part of the world, if you know where to look. I have never had a bad experience with them and would certainly advocate for their use to treat forms of depression etc... in a very controlled environment. But at the same time, I can see how someone could do very serious damage to their psyche if they weren't careful whilst using them, and didn't full understand the risks associated.

Love is the drug?

Seen people go right off on that one.

Hitler was a vegetarian too. Lessons to be learned there 😉

Stalin was a despot as well but he sounded like lots of fun on the piss. He used to have six hour piss ups with his cabinet members and his favourite prank was to sneak tomatoes into their pants pockets and shove them into walls and have the tomatoes explode in their pants.

Technically I agree with you but like a lot of things it's how they are used in terms of amount and frequency.

Interesting you mention Stalin being a massive drinker but part of the reason was to see if he could trust his advisors and generals when they had a large amount of alcohol.More than a few were arrested for saying the wrong thing (a week or 2 later) and if you did not drink with him he also saw it as grounds for suspicion and arrest.
Hitler was evil but Stalin was just as bad.

Public servants' wages; teachers, nurses, police, etc. are all on a publicly-accessible salary structure. Executives of public companies are required to have published salaries. It is simply transparency.

I can't think of a legitimate argument against publishing all NRL salaries in full and feel it is simply preferring to keep the power of negotiating in the hands of the player managers (like Anasta). By keeping everyone in the dark, they can play clubs against each other and manipulate the player market and this would cripple their influence.

And that's EXACTLY why it should happen.

Hear, hear!

Contracts and salaries should be transparent throughout all organisations. Tendering and negotiations are a different matter.

They also stated that MM has been in contact with Curtis Sironen to come to Parra.
If MM was trying to help Parra with recruitment I can’t see him leaving Parra.

I missed that bit, but that's 100 percent right, why help a team your leaving.
