Back in June last year Fijian player Vilimoni Delasau failed
a drug test after the match against the All Blacks which they lost 91 to zip.
He was fined $500 by the New Zealand Rugby Union kept in-house
at the time.
Why the NZRFU, not Fijian RFU you might ask?
Well as some more knowledgeable readers may have spotted Vilimoni
Delasau also plays on the wing for both Canterbury and The Crusaders.
Canterbury had a game scheduled the weekend after Delasau’s
positive drug test.
So what did they do?
Rather than ‘fessing-up’ about their player using drugs the CRFU told their fans, press Delasau was unavailable due to an eye injury.
