Neil Mitchell has argued against the AFL club he supports in Melbourne in relation to player Joel Smith, who returned a positive drug sample for cocaine during the home-and-away season.

It’s being reported today that Smith could be suspended for three months during the summer instead of during the season, if found guilty, a move which wouldn’t sit well with the 3AW Mornings host.

“What’s the point … where is the real punishment,” he said.
