6 August, 2012 - 12:41 PM


A young Western Bulldogs player was found by police in a state of unconsciousness early on Sunday morning, according to Triple M Footy's Damian Barrett.

The Bulldogs became aware of the incident yesterday and are currently dealing with the matter, Barret wrote on the AFL website.

Barrett says the player was found with illicit substances and questioned by police after they found him at around 3.30am on King Street in Melbourne's CBD.

The player has been placed in a diversion program by police.

The Bulldogs have failed to return calls on the matter, despite repeated attempts to contact the club in the past 24 hours.

The Bulldogs leadership group has imposed the four-week sanction after Tom was located by Victoria Police early Sunday morning heavily intoxicated and in possession of a small amount of a recreational, illicit substance.

Liberatore has been placed in a diversion program by police.

It is believed the incident will constitute a "strike" under the AFL's illicit drugs policy.

In addition to the suspension, Liberatore has received a suspended $5000 fine and has been told to undergo counselling and education.

He will also be engaged in full-time employment for the next six weeks and will not be allowed to train with the playing group for the duration of the suspension.

One would hope the Bulldogs make sure "full time" employment excludes him working for his old man in Tony's little business

Chuck in safety work wear as well

And BTW I wouldn't call selling bandaids, bandages etc, selling "Medical Equipment" More like "first Aid supplies" as per his business name  ;D

Company I used to work with bought some stuff off him..

As for your comment about him being a nice bloke...in my limited dealings with him I found him quite arrogant actually but each to his own  :rollin

He is a liar. My old man was involved in signing him to Williamstown to play the year he won the Brownlow. Committed, deal done and then bulldogs kept him, which was a surprise to all involved.

This resulted in him staying at the Bulldogs because of a clause (fair enough).

Tony denied ever being in discussions with Willy.

Lying dog.

Dont really want to know him  ;D

But he might sell bandaids & bandages but I'd question how much he knows about OH&S - gets a lot advice  ;)
