[SWSteve]

Has anyone read Richard Moore's book on Bolt? Does the doping issue come up?

Would need to go look for it, but read a story today that an Italian tennis player had been banned for 2 months (two !) after failing a drug test, she said it was her mothers' cancer drugs had made it into the tortolinni at a family meal. Tennis has a lot to hide.

Usain Bolt is only 30 and many sprinters are still in their prime at that age. Odd that his times have fallen away so dramatically and has decided to retire, at the very same time there has been so much publicity about doping in athletics - taking back medals, banning Russia, etc.

Not so much doping, but a complete & utter dope, Castleford Tigers full back Zak Hardaker tested positive for cocaine, should have been in the grand final squad last saturday, then off to Australia to represent England in the forthcoming World Cup, what a waste of a talent.
