Mr Morris and his legal team requested a postponement of the hearing for a later date, on the understanding that Mr Morris suspension would continue until the hearing takes place, regardless that the date exceeded the initial 30 day suspension period." How does this legal move make sense?? He’s probably in Poland partying with his Aussie mates. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How does this legal move make sense?? The only thing that comes to mind is that Nick and his team are conducting their own blood/laboratory tests. If these show him to be innocent of drug taking and the SCB accept the evidence as admissible, that might help his case. He may, however, still be punished for non compliance with the testing procedure. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The thing there is tho, surely any samples will have had to be taken at the same time of the event? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Would agree with that. You have too question why he didn’t take 2nd sample. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I didn't say it was valid or might work in Nick's favour. I'm just guessing in the absence of any public facts. Like everyone else. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
