The Adelaide Crows are investigating two of their players after they were stopped by police in the early hours of Monday morning and allegedly found in possession of an illicit substance.
Brad Crouch and Tyson Stengle won't be charged by South Australian police but have been referred to a counselling process. However the incident is being carefully looked at by the Crows with club-imposed sanctions to be considered.
Crouch is one of the AFL's biggest names and is weighing up his future as a free agent while Stengle was involved in a drink driving incident earlier this season.
"First and foremost, the alleged conduct is serious and we will continue to ask questions and make sure we have all of the facts before settling on a definitive position going forward," Adelaide head of football Adam Kelly said.
"The club will also liaise closely with the AFL and AFL Players Association during this process, including working through any consequences under the AFL's illicit drug policy.
"What is absolutely clear is that all players across the League are well educated about drug use and relevant policies.
"As an organisation, we take a very strong stance against any behaviour of this kind.
"The wellbeing of Brad and Tyson is also paramount and we will make sure they receive appropriate support."
