Deny, deny, deny
Besides his penchant for scrapping with police and knobbing his teammates’ wives, AFL legend Wayne Carey loves nothing more than a bit of nose powder on the sly.
Back in 2012, he walked into a prison with traces of cocaine all over his clothes, leading him to lament: ‘‘I would wee in a cup now, I would’ve weed in a cup yesterday. [I] was never offered to wee in a cup and was never offered to do a strip search.”
Well, old Wazza might finally get to have that wee after all, because he’s in the soup again. The crime this time: accidentally dropping a bag of white powder and some bank notes on the blackjack table at a Perth casino.
The Channel Nine pundit quickly stuffed them back in his pocket and snuck off, but staff booted him out of the casino.
Needless to say, Wayne has an “I slipped, fell and landed arse-first on the ketchup bottle”-style excuse, claiming the bag actually contained “crushed up anti-inflammatory drugs”.
Incidentally, here’s an extract from Carey‘s 2009 autobiography:
I’d always been told and taught to deny, deny, deny, unless you have been caught red-handed.
And even if you have been caught red-handed you still deny, deny, deny.
