    Jaysus so my two favourite sports, Rugby and cycling, are both full of drugs - What am I going to follow now?!

    however, I admit I ve been waiting for this to happen in Rugby for a while now.....

    Bunch of idiots if you ask me - I spend all day defending both cycling and rugby as a sport played and watched by real people without the need for this sort of thing.
    Pain hurts much less if its topped off with beating your mates to top of a climb.

    Must've been the energy drink / cold remedy / yadda-yadda....

    The only thing I find shocking is how few rugby players have tested positive - but then again, I suppose I'd be shocked at how few get tested...
    Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..

    Was thinking exactly the same thing when I found out about it today.

    quote from article.......Coach Peter de Villiers fears the whole squad may have taken the banned substance and the team's energy drinks have been sent for testing.

    lol (and i hate using those three letters!) - cheating Sarth Afrekin b@st@rds!

    It wasn't enough that the ref was on their side on Sat against Wales - half the team were juiced up to the eyeballs too......... :evil:
    If Wales was flattened out, it'd be bigger than England!
