Another cop out Jacknostar.
The pressure was on at Tigerland a few years ago and you ran away.....or someone saw you as a sniper and cut you loose.

Ive been pretty soft on Wallace compared to others.. but Terry STFU about drafting Ben being about saving his life.

Terrys achieved nothing as a coach except drafting Cousins back.

You drafted "topped up the list" to keep your job and improve the on field performance. Both failed. Makes me sick Terry looking for applause for drafting Ben and saving his life. IIRC it was Craig Cameron who made the call.

Fantastic part 2, very moving doco IMO.

They're not going to legalise and tax drugs
They should. Drug addiction should be treated as a health issue not a criminal issue and while drugs are illegal people are always going to be ashamed and hide their addictions.

Doesn't stop the issue of drug taking. This only stops drug trafficking.

effing oath and they should use the tax on drugs to fund rehabilitation and education.
Drugs would also be cleaner and safer if regulated.

Sorry I dont agree.

1 problem is drug taking and constant drug abuse = addiction over time
2nd problem is drug experimentation and overdose on first use or recreational occasional use, mostly in youths.

Legalising drugs doesnt stop accidental overdosing which is a higher percentage of deaths than constant drug abuse overdose.

Sorry but even Brian Cousins said that if he wasn't drafted he was convinced that Ben wouldn't be with us now and he's spoken of suicide

Neither does prohibition, people need to realise that you will never stop demand.

No he didn't Craig Cameron the list manager did. Terry whinged about not having any power over drafting.. Yet when it comes to Ben he claims to have saved his life. He uses the words "We" when drafting Ben but when its about Hislop, McMahon etc he complains about the club giving power to Craig Cameron.

Have no doubt it saved his life. My issue is Terry claiming he was behind it.

Absolute garbage, stop buying into government scare tactics. Most drugs are less addictive than alcohol and much less harmful to your body also. One of the biggest problems with prohibition is it has caused people to turn to cheap substitutes like GHB which causes most of the overdoses at the big dance parties.

Most overdoses in all drugs are caused by fluctuations in quality, legalising drugs would create a standard strength of substance which would stop this.
