Thread: Cousins Passes Drug Test

    Cousins Passes Drug Test

    Ben Cousins passes drug test - Breaking News - Sport - Breaking News

    I would have thought that they would be testing his blood not his urine considering the seriousness of the case.

    Don't get me wrong I'd like to see him play again, but would want the Tour de France officials testing him.

    Well by the looks of it he'll be "looking after" Schnieds and Dempster!!
    Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.
    Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones who let in the light.

    I think they still have to do tests on a hair sample.

    Counterintuitively, urine is superior to blood in detecting drug use, i.e. it covers a longer time-span. (And its appeal is of course that urine testing is far easier to administer.)

    A lot of claims are made for hair testing (and in theory it covers use within a far longer window than urine, blood or anything else) but it's far from well established or in my opinion as reliable as other means.

    A full autopsy should reveal the extent and recency of any drug use
