AFL great Wayne Carey has been stood down by Channel 7 and banned from Crown casinos for two years after he was caught with a bag of white powder at Crown in Perth.
According to News Ltd:
The 51-year-old was gambling at Crown Burswood last Thursday night when a zip-lock bag containing a white powder dropped from his pocket on to a gaming room table.
A croupier activated an alarm and casino security personnel were called, who then questioned the former AFL star.
Carey admitted to security guards that the bag of white substance was his, though sources close to the Australian Football Hall of Fame member on Monday night insisted it contained “crushed up anti-inflammatory drugs”.
Carey has been stood down from his media roles pending an investigation.
