The Great Andrew Johns Not So Great

[kel]

Don't usually watch that silly footy show but might flick over and see what the goose reg retard has to say about his little brother.

Reg Retard looks like he's always on the billy noke as well.

I dont care who or what you are but drugs is just a sign of TOTAL WEAKNESS and i respect no man or woman who does it because they are weak. Any man that has to take drugs to make himself better is no man plain and simple.

People trying to prove What to other people? In this case and many big name stars it all comes down to the fan breaking them down piece by piece and the weight of the world on their shoulders and maybe just maybe if this is all true Johns couldn't handle it as the same with Ben Cousins.

Many know i don't agree with Mundine alot but i totally agree with his idea of no drinking and no drugs i mean why poison your body when you can perfect it with training. Having a drink now and again is fine but why destory your body with get wasted and drugs when you can only make yourself stronger each day with training. When your paied to do that there should be no limits to being perfect and drinking and drugs should be banned simple as that.

First off Ice is a MUCH harder drug then Ecstasy. Secondly your entitled to your opinion thats fine, but its different to push your views onto others. Why should being an athlete mean having to live like a preist. They should be allowed some room to move. You act as if he was on some massive binge which is total rubbish. Its always the attitude of the anti drug crowd. Make it out to be totally evil. Sorry to break it to you but it is RAMPANT. I heard stats that 85% of people aged 18-22 had tried ecstasy once, and I wouldn't doubt it for a second. Australia are the biggest users of ecstasy per population on the planet according to recent studies. Its hardly like he is part of a small minority of "drugos" trying to poison society. Having a big night once a week doesn't hurt anyone. They are just people, looking to have some fun with their mates like everyone else.

The total weakness crap is the most self righteous shit i have heard in a while. How does it make him or anyone else for that matter less of a man? What a joke. Why don't you go ask Katsidis about drugs mate. From what I have heard from multiple sources he is no stranger in that regard. Does that make him any less of a man?

Rugby league legend Andrew Johns has been arrested for possession of an ecstasy tablet in London.
Police stopped the 33-year-old former Australian Test captain at Kings Cross underground station on Sunday afternoon.

The rugby great had been partying at The Church, an all-day club at Kentish Town that is popular with Australian expats and tourists, and claimed an "unknown person" had pushed the pill into his jeans.

"I was having such a good time, seeing it was the last day before I flew home," he said.
"I stupidly forgot about the tablet and instead of getting rid of it, I left myself in a situation I soon deeply regretted.




"I have been a very foolish person and realise I have brought great disappointment to my family, friends and many people, including lots of youngsters who have looked up to me over the years.
"It has left a black mark on my reputation which I will work very hard at erasing". He was not charged over the incident and is free to return to Australia, but if he is ever caught in another similar situation he could face court.
Johns was searched as part of a British Transport Police operation in the London underground to catch drug users travelling to the Notting Hill Carnival.
The former footy star was one of 206 people arrested for drugs possession in London over the British holiday weekend.
Police confirmed last night that "an Australian man in his 30s was arrested and cautioned for possession of an ecstasy tablet".
Johns had been holidaying in Britain, and had spent the previous week attending the Challenge Cup final at Wembley stadium and coaching the rugby union club Harlequins.

Come on guys hes at an all day club I know these day clubs go off after you have been out all night and still peaking or looking to peak so places like this is where you go to do that shit.
And denying that he did not own the pill after leaving a place like that is ridiculous any other person other then a celeb would be hung for it and no one would ever beleive what he has said and truth be told I dont beleive him.
But I should not complain have dabbled with the shit in the past myself.

Na i dont drink or smoke but like i have no problem with people who do I just do dont get when people are pushed into it or start to try and fit into a group. I am also not a man of faith so i do dont it for what i believe in or anything like that either it's just a choice i made so i can train harder and longer then people who would drink and smoke alot.

But with Drugs it is like a area i hate and feel it is a huge weakness in ones charecter and now i can judge Johns because i dont know if the story is fully true or what but when it comes to drugs i just feel anyone who takes them and needs them is weak.

Now i understand people who are depressed use some kind of drugs and aslong as they are legal thats fine but when it comes to fixing ones self with a drug from the streets i just cant understand that i really dont. I get high on training blood sweet and tears and that is deadset serious and the harder i push the better I feel and with this AFL,NRL soccer boxing whatever stars do this i just wonder how great they really could be without it.

I've heard stories going back years about Joey and his coke habit, and being passed out in his car up in Newcastle after big nights on the piss when he was going through his divorce.

In fact, a little bird told me back when Wendell was done for okie, that along with Lockyer and Johns, he was the biggest cokehead in the NRL.

Funnily enough, I read an article by Wendy when he got busted, and he said in the days after the bust, when he turned to his family and friends for support, the first thing he did was have dinner at Darren Lockyers house, and Joey was there

Heh, brings back memories of the "Andrew Johns is a coke fiend" thread.
You remember that?

BULLSHIT drugs are for the weak and weak minded simple as that, You take illegal drugs you are not worth a second or a heartbeat of my or anyone elses time.

if Katsidis was on drugs does it make him less of a man, answer YES. A man who does drugs is no man simple as that and when it comes to drugs and sport they are not only cheats they are cowards. Now if they come back from that and get clean thats a sign of strength but even trying it is a sign of weakness.

Now i dont care if you do drugs or use i dont care thats your life to waste so i dont push my views on others but i get MANY push theres onto me about NOT BEING A TRUE AUSSIE because i dont drink. As i said before i dont do it out of faith i do it out of choice in order to train harder and longer i dont risk hurting my mind or body with stuff that is bad for you.

People can do what they want BUT my point to the whole thing is simple Johns is a role model right? Kids are stupid today right? they want to be like their stars and fact is people will blame Johns that their kids do drugs and blah blah blah THE REAL PROBLEM is the foks that dont smash their kids for starting it in the first place.......They just look to blame the Celebs who do it rather then break their kids in 2 for using it.

Now if you want to do drugs go ahead but i rather keep my mind and body focused on it's goal and many dont like to train or workout and thats a problem in this world today. We are all fat lazy slobs and looking for something to blame and the only person is the one we look at when we go to the mirror each morining.

Its not always a rose garden Wayne.

Are you a bible basher or had a family member die from drug? You have a one track mine on this subject.

[pecks]

You're dribbling a load of crap there waynesmale. Cousins didn't get 'hanged', he got off rather lightly compared to Wendell Sailor.
Also, why is someone 'weak' for taking drugs, or even drinking? Sounds like Gavin Stone talk to me.

He is a moron for getting caught. Someone put it in my pocket! Jeee...i wish that happened to me

Your point of view stinks of immaturity. You have a very naieve view of the world. If i could relate it to something, it would be like saying the best cure for unplanned pregnancies is abstenance. Both statements are equally flawed. Its not evil. People dont do it because they are weak. They don't rely on the drug in any way when talking ecstasy and lower level sorts. They just do it for a good time on the odd occasion for the most part. You make it sound so sinister. Do some research. Look at the link i provided. Don't listen to all the people who say what it could 'potentially do" either. look at the actual proven effects. You will be very suprised. I find it funny that when people like yourself have very high moral standards, that they love to look down their nose at other people. I don't look down at people like yourself who don't drink or take drugs. Personally it doesn't really change my opinion of someone what so ever. If that is the sort of thing that governs your opinion on someone then you are living a pretty shallow life.
