I agree with you rolfw but the testing is always 1 step behind the cheat. People are prepared to risk it. It is a shame, but there it is.

Unfortunately like most 'sports', it has been ruined by money, and the urge to win at all costs. The financial gains in athletics outweigh the risks of being caught taking illegal substances.

As has been said, if an athlete wants to compete at the top on level terms, then he/she will need to use the same 'aids' as the rest.

But the point is - if they do get caught cheating, they know the score - and they should be banned.

Wow, who raised this thread from the grave?

Is it even relevant any more? I've no idea who Duane Chambers is or if he's in the running for the 2012 Olympics. What happened for the 2008 Olympics BTW?

Someone has voted in the poll, that will revive the thread, will close it now.:)

He didn't take part in the last Olympics by the way.

I guessed that was what had happened but you have to wonder why!

Anyway I've closed the poll now.
