Anyone know what the policy is ???
Does it get ramped up in the Finals Series.

I think the entire NZ team should be tested again after their performance in Semi Final Game 1 :P

There are routinely random tests including, I think, in the off-season?

That's how they picked up Corey Websters use of synthetic cannabis, he was tested after a playoff series.
The synthetic cannabis at the time was legally sold in NZ over the counter but it's ingredients are on the WADA banned substance list for athletes hence the ban.
I don't believe Corey is mates with Karmichael Hunt ;)

of more concern is a lack of a gambling policy, at present all major sports in aus have agreements to monitor possible player and officials involvement in betting, except the nbl

I can tell you with absolute certainty from within, that not once did anyone get tested from the team I know AT ALL! That's right not even once! I doubt very much other teams did either. Have not seen a drug tester at a game for a couple of years now.
