Less than a year after being investigated by the AFL integrity unit, defender Michael Talia is back in the headlines for the wrong reasons, with Sydney standing the defender down after he was charged with cocaine possession.Talia was traded by the Western Bulldogs to the Swans in October 2015 after he allegedly shared confidential information with his brother and Adelaide defender Daniel before their two teams met in an elimination final.While he was cleared of any wrongdoing, Talia left the Bulldogs on difficult terms to seek a fresh start at the Swans.Talia made his Sydney debut in the round one 80-point thrashing of Collingwood, but suffered a serious foot injury that has kept him on the sidelines ever since.He has resumed running but is still several weeks away from playing and now has another off-field hurdle to negotiate.Talia was arrested in the Sydney suburb of Double Bay early on Sunday morning.The 23-year-old is due to face Waverley Local Court on August 17, after which the AFL will make a decision with the club on any consequences.If the charge is proved, it will count as a strike under the leagues revised two-strikes illicit drugs policy.Swans football manager Tom Harley said the matter involving Talia was extremely disappointing.Hes given us his version of the events, but given its before the courts I wont go into any of that, Harley said.Hes been honest as much as we can ascertain.Harley said Sydneys board and leadership group were among the parties involved in the decision to stand down Talia.It is an extremely disappointing thing to deal with and the players certainly hold that view as well, Harley said.Sydney are renowned for their strong player driven Bloods culture and standards of behaviour.Harley stressed the Swans action to stand Talia down was an interim measure and not a judgment on the player.Were certainly not pre-empting how it will play out in a legal sense, but from a clubs point of view, we take this matter extremely seriously and therefore thats been the course of action that weve taken, Harley said.Weve taken the path to stand him down as an immediate response, its not a definitive response.Well continue to ask the right questions and make sure we get all the facts before we work out exactly what we do going forward.Harley stressed the club would continue to offer support behind the scenes to Talia.The AFL will wait until the court date has passed before making a decision on what action Talia could face under league rules.

Jon Montgomerys gold medal in skeleton at the Whistler Sliding Centre and his subsequent auctioning off of a pitcher of beer in the village square elevated him to folk-hero status. RIO DE JANEIRO -- A near-diplomatic incident -- as Rio de Janeiro Mayor Eduardo Paes termed it -- came to an end on Wednesday ahead of the Olympics.The Australian delegation gave the mayor a tiny boxing kangaroo doll as the sign of a truce. It also said its now happy with its rooms at Rios Olympic Athletes Village.The 700-member delegation refused to check in three days earlier because of water and gas leaks, electrical shorts, malfunctioning toilets and general filth.The unfinished village, built at a cost of about $1.5 billion, marks the first organizational crisis of South Americas first Olympics, which open in just over a week. Attention now shifts to dozens of venues, which will be filling up in the next few days with thousands of athletes hoping to practice. Problems here could make village problems seems small.It was almost a diplomatic thing, the mayor said, speaking to Australian officials and members of the mens field hockey team at the 31-building village.Paes apologized and acknowledged Australias was the worst building.Australia was right, he said. It was not in good shape. That was a mistake of the organization. What we have to do now is go ahead and organize it. Theyve got their building now, and I hope things go well from now on.As his offering, Paes gave delegation head Kitty Chiller the keys to the city, and a doll representing the official mascot Vinicius.Australian officials said about 50 athletes were living in the village on Wednesday accompanied by almost 100 additional staff members.Rio organizers said 2,902 people occupied the village on Wednesday -- 849 of them athletes.The village will accommodate 18,000 athletes and staff at its peak, but many delegations are still away at private training venues for a feww more days.dddddddddddd The crunch should come next week in the run-up to the opening ceremony on Aug. 5.After battling leaks for a week, Australia complained openly on Sunday. Dozens of other delegations also flagged up problems about their rooms, with many calling in their own workmen to fix the problems.The complaints led to hundreds of cleaners, plumbers, safety inspectors and electricians working 24-7 to resolve the issues.On Wednesday, Brazilian labor inspectors said they would fine the Rio organizing committee nearly $100,000 (about 315,000 reals) for hiring workers without proper contracts required by law. Inspector Hercules Terra told the Globo network that about 630 workers did not enjoy benefits that protect them from workplace injuries.The same inspector also said the organizing committee was going to be punished for withholding documents that would show how the employees were hired.Paes was asked four times about who would pay any bills run up by teams trying to fix their own problems. He walked away without answering, which Chiller also noted.He left immediately after that question, she said. Well sort all that out afterwards.Chiller promised to speak out again if things are not ready.Everything that weve ever said, and everything I will continue to say is about making sure that we have the best possible environment for our athletes, she said. And well stop at nothing to ensure that we get that.
