What instead of selling him and making a Profit like other clubs did when one of it's players was banned??????

I suppose you'd have expected the Stains to do the same thing if Leon had gone down for 12 months eh???????

Real shame for him, Wigan and England IMO. Said for a long time he's the best backrower we have in terms of the basic tools. Unfortunately he's obviously an idiot as well.

I sincerely hope Wigan stand by him in some way and that he looks to come back in 2 years. A ban under WADA rules is fair - I do not for the life of me understand this 'ban him for life' nonsense.

Agreed

WADA recommends that clubs introduce effective strategies - delivered by well trained professionals - for drug control through education. Schemes targeted to specific social environments. Interactive participation. Social influence approaches (communication, decision-making, refusal skills). Booster sessions etc.

I've e-mailed the club asking to know what it feels its RESPONSIBILITIES are toward the players in this context.
