Just read that a minute ago when logging out of my hotmail. Wow!
Let's pray he is okay, and nothing malicious occured in the lead up to whatever happened...

It is due to an "adverse reaction to a sleeping tablet".

 

[Tortilla]

Reported on SEN that he suffered an adverse reaction to a sleeping tablet.

This from a Richmond press release

 

[western royboy]

S&%t just hearing on SEN that it's an adverse reaction to a sleeping tablet!

Ah sh1t. I knew today was too good to be true.

Leather poisoning hopefully.

Not yet.

Apparently it was a nigh nigh-inducing ingestible vessel.

Sleeping Tablets... may cause unconsciousness

 

[alfy!]

in my expert opinion, the facts sound like he has had an adverse reaction to a sleeping tablet

 

[Coledinho]

AFLs hidden secret was about to come out sooner or later. I think you will find literally every single player takes sleeping tablets after a game

 

[Roby]

Sleeping tablets can be dangerous or fatal if mixed with amphetamines or cathinones. I doubt they will find out for sure, as hospitals tend not to disclose this information.

 

[jko'neal]

Let the melt down and bullshit stories begin

 

[jackster83]

Hope he's ok, was brilliant on the weekend for the Tiges.

Sleeping tablets can be dangerous at any time - talk about drawing a long bow. It is not uncommon for people to have adverse reactions to medication so lets wait and judge him on facts rather than assumptions.

Must have been one hell of a sleeping pill, best of luck Benny

Really, why?

If I go for a run, I'm usually ****ed and sleep like a baby.

Maybe if it's a night game I could understand, sometimes you can be a bit wired after strenuous exercise at night, but a day game is a different story.

Might you, I'm not running as hard and as fast or as long as these blokes are...

 

[AP Erebus]

I just got word from a mate of a mate of a mate's gf who said she met Ben once, it's apparently an adverse reaction to a sleeping tablet.

 

[Deepthroat]

Why is he taking a sleeping pill, mid morning, the day after a game?
