Crikey.

"preferred to stay in custody".

I wonder why?

Sad but not shocking. Was talk for many years about major drug usage issues with Fisher and then later about debts to other players and potentially other people outside the club, although that is less certain.

I was thinking the same. A target on his back now ?

Jeez the police do a wonderful job, just read this:

“This is a remarkable result and one that highlights the modern cross-border nature of drug-related crime,” he said.

“There may be a perception drugs can be easily concealed; however, we have seen time and time again the ability of police to detect and seize these substances.

“This is a warning that regardless of where you are or where or how you operate, we will target those involved in the manufacture and trafficking of illicit drugs and hold them to account.”

He might have the sickness and is too crook to move or doesn't want to acknowledge or face up to the situation he's in.

I'm not shocked he's dabling in it, there were always rumours around the Saints at this time. The part I find shocking is distribution. Yikes, he could go away for a very long time.

I don't know if they were exaggerating but on C7 news tonight they were saying he's looking at a life sentence.

He'll get some time but won't be more than 5-7 I wouldn't have thought.

[Twodogs]

Yeah that sounds more realistic.

*edit* I looked up the penalties in Victoria. For trafficking a commercial quantity (25+ kilos) of an illegal drug the maximum is 25 years.

They don't look like fans of the Cohen's earlier work, but it takes all sorts I guess.

Why don't they get tops a size bigger?

[jeemak]

Why don't they get tops a size bigger?

It's funny because it shouldn't be, but that's exactly the first thing I asked as well.

[EasternWest]

Why don't they get tops a size bigger?

Are you going to tell them?

Former St Kilda star Sam Fisher has been jailed for more than five years after a downward spiral into drug addiction led him to become involved in an interstate trafficking scheme.
