What I'm thrilled about is that at least the Roosters won't be able to poach him for next year (as they were almost certain to do) and get even bloody stronger!
The timing of this is pretty funny. Earlier this morning NRL.COM had an article on how Xerri has been working with Roger Fabri and improved his speed (since taken down). Was it really his technique that improved his pace??? Hmmm...
Tested positive in November last year but NRL only just got notified - nothing to see here - AY?
So when do they take the B sample? Plenty of time to get him clean enough to pass after SIX freeking months.

The B sample is taken at the same time as the A sample. When testing the B sample your only hope is that if they have literally made a mistake when testing the A sample . . . . .

Who was this blokes coach? Lance Armstrong?

Fuck the Roosters!
Would have been better if they signed him first
If they had, you'd never hear about this.

That guy you just mentioned, I'm sure he's been linked to this kind of thing before.
Sure it wasn't doctor Ferrari, he's good at turning plodders into world beaters.
I doubt cronulla had any idea. If they had they surely wouldnt have released Josh Morris to the roosters.
A link would have been nice.
