    Very disappointing misrepresentation of the facts there Comrade - they are lines of speed, not coke

      Speed is just blue collar coke anyway.

      Pretty stupid too. Amphetamines stay in your system forever and can be detected much easier than coke which washes through you in a couple of days.
      They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

          Sorry, as an AFL footballer, thought he'd prefer the top shelf stuff. The UDL can should've given it away
          Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

              Sorry that seemed annoying, I was genuinely asking if he had a strike recorded. Not that we would know, the AFL has less commitment to transparency than professional wrestling.

                Nobody would know apart from the club doctor, the player and somebody else-forgotten who it is. The tea lady or someone like that.

                  Take out the last word and I reckon you're getting closer to the right question.

                    Psychedelics are where it's at, you could still be tripping and they would be lucky to detect it.
                    Incidentally been doing a lot of research on micro dosing lsd and shrooms, i knew of it's benefits mental health wise and with creativity and working through problems but wasn't aware how widely it's used in extreme sports, helps reflexes and reaction time, balance and fatigue, i imagine it would be very beneficial in a sport like Aussie Rules and it's virtually undetectable. Wonder how prevalent it could be in the sport


                    interesting article on the subject
                    My life is a very complicated drinking game.

                        Shrooms are a weird experience, there is the initial paranoia you get with pot, but curiosity always overrides it and where you were hesitant a minute earlier you find yourself completely consumed by whatever it is that took your fancy. I reckon you could play some pretty good footy on them, once the initial doubts wore off.

                        Scuse double post...

                          I wouldn't imagine you could play very well whilst proper tripping on them(although the example of Doc Ellis pitching a no hitter in major league baseball contradicts that somewhat) but sub perceptual doses, like a 5th or 10th of a normal dosage are widely used in extreme sports, heightening senses, improved reflexes and concentration/focus reducing fatigue and pain. You don't actually trip per se

                            Yes I would imagine that spatial awareness would be greatly reduced the higher the dose.

                              It's also theorised that they were a significant contributing factor in our evolution as a species and in the development of language and culture and in almost all ancient cultures there is evidence regarding use of psychedelic plants

                              little bit off topic there though apologies.

                              Thought it was interesting given the subject at hand, their use in extreme sports and whether it would be known much amongst other athletes. Read the article in the link i provided if you get the chance, very interesting reading

                                I've played cricket still tripping from the night before. It wasn't a good experience.
                                They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.
