I mean the idea is different and interesting. But it sends wrong message in that if you want to do something bad, worse to your body with performance enhancers, then there is a place that will welcome you. I think as an experiment it could be fascinating to see as in world records and that if they compared them to that, which they should. But as a year in year out thing? It will wear off quickly as yeah you win but does it count?
Once the novelty has worn off, people will stop watching as they wouldn't want to cheer someone doing something morally illegal in the scheme of sports plus cheering an Aussie to win, when they are not really winning anything will die off. Plus i know when the Olympics are on mid year, my school will be promoting the Aussies like we did the Matilda's. We wouldn't for this obviously, so there goes a certain fan base automatically.
For me, i couldn't care less. I am in the belief of if you know what the effects are on your body and health and want to keep going? That is on you. I eat and drink a tad bit unhealthy, i know it is bad but i also enjoy it, but i wont blame anyone for my health issues either. If they want to participate and are not doing anything illegal per say then go for it, not harming any of us.

If they’re ok to use for monetary sports reasons then they’re ok to use for the average Joe who wants to look like a Leb at a festival or plastic gangster bikie too.

People act like BA won us 5 spoons and was the one responsible for our salary cap breach. Yes he was our coach for 2 seasons too long and made a couple of shit calls over those years. I was pissed with the JA selections and…"
"Frank it says enough that Meninga beat him to the job in Perth. Like Meninga's coaching skills are about as good as his political skills. Do you remember his attempt at trying to become a federal politician. He walked on his first interview never to…"
"That's rubbish, neither he or Walters deserve credit in either circumstances. Only a flop would credit a coach 5 years on even if the team were 100% Arthur recruits. "
"We won't even be able to dream of premiership success until we get a decent recruiter. If we don't find some success in 2026 , I think you'll see MON sacrifice his mate Ben Rogers .
I just hope Ryles being more of an Alpha then Arthur , he won't…"
