FORMER Collingwood player Shae McNamara said he was surprised more AFL players had not tested positive to illicit drugs.
The American recruit, cut by the Pies last August after three years at the club, said party drug use was common in professional sport - and the AFL was not immune.
"People are definitely doing it and I'm surprised people aren't testing positive more often,'' he said yesterday.
"I mean that from high school to college to professional (athlete) in Germany and professional (AFL player) here, I'm surprised people haven't been caught ... and that goes across the league and across every sporting culture.
"They're kidding themselves if they want to lie and say 'Oh, no it doesn't happen or, not my boys or not my teammates', and that goes across the league and across every sporting culture.
"It's definitely out there, but AFL players are no different from basketball players, no different from rugby players to regular Joes. It's definitely a cultural thing to do speed and coke.
"As far as the athletes, I've never seen it. I just know and hear of it. I'm not a partier.''
McNamara has played sport across the globe.
He spent five years on a basketball scholarship at Marist College in Poughkeepsie New York, and played in the German regional football league before joining Collingwood ahead of season 2010.
