Sam Newman has outraged anti-drug campaigners and family groups around the country by smoking a bong on The Footy Show which was broadcast around Australia.

 

The stunt on the Channel 9 show was carried out in response to recent reports of a push by the AFL to take marijuana off the match-day banned list.

 

The stunt was was slammed as cheap and immature by the Family Council of Victoria.

 

Footy Show co-host Garry Lyon revealed that Newman had smoked tea, not marijuana, but the action of smoking a bong was what the council found offensive.

 

Family Council president Peter Stevens said drug-taking could lead down a dangerous path and shouldn't be something people joke about.

 

"From my experience with young people I've found that marijuana can lead to a lifetime of addiction, pain and even more. So to make light of something that's devastated thousands of people's lives is, I think, very immature and inappropriate.

 

"It's all about ratings," Mr Stevens added.

 

Do you think Sam went to far? Watch the footage below!

Bah ha ha ha ha ha!!!

Should be done more often. Break down the shock of cannabis culture. We can watch all the violent fucked up shit on CSI and all those other crap cop shows. We can see a mans head cracked in two by some other meatheads giant treetrunk thigh on the footy.

But a man smoking a bong? HOLD EVERYTHING!!

Heaven forbid he actually smoke some weed, get some chinese eyes and chill out on air! The fuckin' sky would fall in!

Hey Brick,

I hope you rang the police about this to add your complaint.

You sound very upset. Try and join a "Family Council" group and let it all out there.

I'd imagine they would agree with you.

Yep and I've heard stories from reliable sources that he really enjoys his bolivian marching powder!

Now that's something I'm waiting for him to do on the show. the logic of why would be just as hilarious.

Upset? nah what gives you that idea! . have never liked him not as a footballeror a human being. he has always been a Geelong Grammer prima donna. He doesn't give a shit about the human race, his street talk always seems to foucus on the underprivileged and uneducated. I would love to see him get snotted when he is out on the street. Yeah I know I don't have to watch but the other parts of the show are ok. He is an insult to the male gender. Condescending prick. Has no respect for women.

[louise]

Agree with you brick Newman is a misogynist cockhead who has wasted too much of our precious oxygen supply.

[Frazz]
