Very disturbing that a sports star of his calibre has to resort to drug trafficking as well. Especially with the money he has earnt from Broncos, Suns and Reds. Not a good look at all.

bit of a noodle scratcher that the modern athlete think they can get away with this type of thing ???

Cocaine and amphetamine use is quite common amongst the Australian Sporting codes. Cannot say I am surprised.

Yep, just turns out he actually got caught

yeh use it but supplying? And just didn't expect it from him

There was a similar thread started in other sports so have merged both here as probably more relevant.

4 counts of supplying is a pretty serious charge and as i said earlier very disappointing.

classic Gold Coast

Wonder if it stops at Hunt, or if other players might be in the shower as well

No mention of AFL Players but some NRL players may be implicated,

Yeh I know but if this is all true, he would have been selling to boys around him.

"Hunt and two men and a woman were last night issued their notices to appear in court, with the CCC alleging they â€œarranged for the supply of cocaine for personal use or to on-supply cocaine to friends and colleagues between June and December last year.â€

Suggests there's the possibility other players received drugs from Hunt.

It is what Stokes was charged with a few years back. Supplying he doesn't actually have to receive any money, he just has to hand it over. So if his mates were asking if he could get them some coke and then he was a link man between dealer and mates or he was giving them some of his own stash it is technically supply

Could go to Essendon and join his drugo friends there.

Bet you the powers that be at the Gold Coast are holding there breath ATM
