I'm not sure how you can say with a straight face that no one is treating it differently.
in terms of media coverage see my first post, probably the most talented player vs an average mid/winger that's replaceable
you try and turn everything into something its not

Why does it matter how good the player is ?

your joking right, you think if Lachie neale gets done snorting a bag of cocaine its going to be the same coverage as (insert any random player)
that's not how media work and that's not how the average football watcher works, no one gives a stuff about the average player, Elijah slightly different hes a high draft pick but obviously not JUH level
not to mention the fact you completely ignored me saying JUH derailed the bulldogs finals campaign, so its been an ongoing saga for months now

So you should have less mental illness and personal issues if you are a higher draft pick?
no that's not what I said, you said he has been treated differently, no he hasn't, by who?
I also think using "mental health" for taking drugs is a cop out - own it, own up to it and be better

You said it was a black and white issue and that everyone treated the players the same. I'm not sure what you mean. Goodnight.

Given your posting style & history, particularly the JUH topic, I find it very hard to believe you weren't trying to bait this.
Its literally a part of the AFL's illicit drugs policy.
From an Age article with Nick Riewoldt, after Joel Smith was busted in 2023.
What is the ‘wiggle room’ Riewoldt appears to be referring to?
The most controversial component of the policy is the clause allowing players who receive a strike to enter a medical program that sees them receive counselling and be target-tested. This means they do not record further strikes if they test positive again while in the program. To enter the program, players must prove to an independent doctor that they have a mental health or other medical issue that led to their drug use.
How does the AFL’s illicit drug policy work?
Under the AFL’s illicit drugs policy, Melbourne’s Joel Smith would record a first strike, receive a suspended fine and counselling. But here’s what happens under the league’s anti-doping code.

Sorry I meant providing the cop out excuse is a part of the policy...
