Maybe Josh Glenn isn't an "out" as he has just avoided a jail term for a drunken assault.

Rhetorical question surely...

Nothing suprises me these days with some clubs.

Support of a footy club not the worst thing for Josh atm.

I’d prefer he be in a SANFL environment than out in country footy.

Is everyone forgetting about the failed game day test? Not sure he will be able to play football anywhere.

Under the relevant policy (presuming the SANFL is the same as the AFL in this field) there has to be a hearing before the relevant Tribunal if there is a positive game-day test. They can't just be taken out the back and quietly told, 'don't try to register next year'. Is there any confirmation that this test result occurred?

He has been provisionally suspended from what I understand. I work with someone involved with Norwood, I was in the same room as them when they were on the phone to James Fantasia about it. He definitely failed a drug test.

Okay, thanks. There should be a hearing in the off-season then. Worst-case scenario is 2 years (backdated), but I don't know how much discretion there is to impose a lesser penalty.

Totally different of course—like night and day in terms of sanction—if it was not a game-day test (and the illicit drug is a recreational one).

Lets hypothetically suggest its a game day test and steroids is detected?

I’m no expert, but I think it’s a 4 year Max penalty. Other factors involved like how a player pleads, whether the B sample is required etc, I believe has a bearing on the term of penalty.

Can't be too bad as Liddle and Cross are staying despite a rumour someone started.
