It's not looking good for pistoriuos , sounds like he was playing johannesburg cricket - doesn't look like he's got a leg to stand on.

Beastie and Hont - you are not looking too hard on Google if you can't find the name of the coach I refer to.

drug use is bigger in rugby than any other sport in France, according to Françoise Lasne. More positive test results in rugby, followed by triathlon, cycling, swimming, football, basketball and handball in that order.

Liverpool manager Brendan Rogers mentioned in the post match interview yesterday that Steven Gerrard had to have a painkilling injection to be able to play.

It struck me that if he'd been a cyclist, he wouldn't have been allowed to race...

Is cycling the only sport with a no needles policy?

Yes similar comments on another player yesterday on the radion, what a star he is for playing through the pain barrier with an injection.

Football really does have a problem with this.

Gerrard should be taking a look at players from the 1960's who did the same and ended up needing new knees and hips.

Article from the BBC on boxing today, interesting in that it references a product that is available ove rthe counter but contains banned substances. The boxer concerned appears to have bought and used an older version of the powder which has been updated since to remove the banned substance.
