Firstly I dont hold HGR ... but reading todays paper ... Massive issue this drugs in sport. I dont know if it has been discussed before but we have:

AFL - Cousins
NRL - Johns
Union - Sailor

Soccer -???
Basketball -???
Union (Local) -???
VFL -???
SNFL -???
WAFL -???
Cricket -???
Hockey -???
Athletics -???
Swimming -???
Womens Sport:
Basketball -???
Netball -???
Various Others -???

If these sports codes now were to move to a weekly oral drug test as proposed by one prominant sportsman, a quick back of envelope calc comes to 5156 professional sportspersons tested say 40 weeks of the year = 207,000 tests per annum .. say at $6 each .... comes to $1,240,000 in Australia alone.

This amount of money is chicken feed to these professional sporting bodies. Then we have:

USA
Britain
France
Germany
Holland
South Africa
NZ
etc etc

$10 million easy

Quite some potential there in professional sports alone.

I am not saying "buy" ... just my musings over a Sunday morning coffee
