SOME Sydney Roosters players are allegedly routinely using powerful prescription drugs including Valium and sleeping pills to get high after games.
Je$ter said:Why isn't there a big story about all the other professionals like doctors and businessmen or uni students who abuse prescription drugs?
How though? Do they rob a chemist? Do they get prescriptions from a dodgy doctor? Do they know dodgy pharmacists? etc.?noisetheory said:considering i know a handful of people that could get valium for me in 10 minutes i dont think they'd have much trouble.
The Sunday Telegraph spoke to a whistleblower who claimed he was hired by the relative of a Rooster's employee in 2009 to purchase prescription drugs for players. The man said he and several others used welfare benefits to purchase drugs like Valium for $5.20 a box.
"I was getting $20 a box after I sold them - it was a guaranteed money earner," he said. "There were five of us doing it last year and I was doctor-shopping for [the team official], stockpiling Valium, Stilnox and Temazepam."
