    @Tim the science will just keep pushing on. I watch a fair bit of weightlifting and powerlifting content and people are def trying new stuff in that arena. At least they have options for clean v not unlike athletics etc. But Olympic weightlifting is def battling hard out doping, kind of like cycling where it's a matter of when, rather than if, people will get found out.

    The dopers are one step ahead

    @canefan or more aye! Although it is interesting that some of the never methods are seemingly less damaging or risky, at least in the weightlifting scene. Aside from putting an unhealthy level of muscle mass on your frame of course!

    I guess they need to be increasingly difficult to detect so they need to be more subtle

    @canefan some of this is in the untested comps and bodybuilding. Its mental stuff they are playing with, but seems to have produced some big (boom tish) results. No more anabolic droids, but still cocktails of all sorts!

    Resurrecting this topic for general discussion on PEDs and general doping in sport as I saw this "article" in the Herald and thought it deserved a comment.

    It's not exactly PEDs and I read it as I wondered who the "star" was.

    It was headlined to seem like there is a major painkiller problem in rugby, but it's pretty obvious that it is nothing more than an advert.

    Find this sort of advertising distasteful.

    https://www.nzherald.co.nz/sport/news/article.cfm?c_id=4&objectid=12299659

    Normally when the Herald whore themselves out to this degree they label it “ sponsored content “ . Pathetic.

    Oh yeah “ rugby star” , that’s as laughable as Chris Rattue being “ premium content “.

    @jegga What I like most is not that the majority of fans wouldn't be able to name him, it's that he's aware of the habits of players after being out of the game for the better part of the decade.

    It ties in nicely with the woo thread , is this CBD product you’re shilling FDA approved ?

    Nope . It says on its website “lab tested “ its lab tested to make sure there’s no THC in it.

    Whenever I think of Grayson Hart it won’t be as a “ super rugby star” it’ll be as another snake oil salesmen.

    The article describes that. Said he went for a covid shot but they treated him for covid instead and that included EPO. Had signed afterdavids and everything.
    Always wondered if the whole 'train in Kenya' thing had ulterior motives. Now I wonder how much of this goes on among the other athletes there. Possibly harder for testing etc until they screw up and are traceable at a meet.

    Hah just read it now. Said he abandoned his case when was challenged over some of the details behind his story. Sounds legit....
