The AFL have released a statement, with Dees defender Joel Smith now being accused of cocaine trafficking by Sports Integrity Australia. “The AFL confirms that further Anti-Doping Rule Violations have been asserted against Joel Smith under the Australian Football Anti-Doping Code. “Sport Integrity Australia (SIA) has notified Smith that three ADRVs for “Trafficking or Attempted Trafficking” of Cocaine to third parties are asserted against him. “These ADRVs are in addition to that previously asserted against him (in connection with a sample provided by him after the match between Melbourne and Hawthorn on 20 August 2023 which tested positive to Cocaine and its metabolite, Benzoylecgonine). “Smith will continue to be provisionally suspended pending the finalisation of all of these matters, meaning he is not permitted to be part of Melbourne’s football program, including Melbourne’s pre-season training that is currently underway. “Under the Code, the new asserted ADRVs will be further investigated by SIA and these matters may ultimately be heard by an AFL Anti-Doping Tribunal in the coming months.” Smith, 27, was already facing a suspension of two years after testing positive to cocaine on game day late last season.
