St Kilda coach Scott Watters confident Saints are clean St Kilda coach Scott Watters, left, and captain Nick Riewoldt. Picture: Dustin Bradford. St Kilda coach Scott Watters yesterday admitted the shock and scale of the Australian Crime Commission's explosive report made it difficult to avoid distracting the players. Watters said the club had addressed the players and staff on their responsibilities to the AFL and the game in general. I think initially players need to be informed and we've done that internally. We certainly want our players to be educated and have an understanding of their role and their place within everything that has been discussed," the Saints coach said after the first intraclub practice match at Seaford. At the same time, they're here to play footy. That's what they love doing and that's our core business. So, really it is business as usual for us. The footy's a fantastic distraction for a lot of things that happen. As a coach, we're very focused on what we do. So, it's about limiting the distractions to our players. Because of the enormity of the stories that are out there, that's a challenge because we're all affected by it. Having said that, players want to play, individuals want to get better, coaches want their sides to improve and we'll remain focused on the here and now and ultimately try and make every second count. It's a time when the game's being challenged and we need to sit back and have a real close look at it. Milne stars in Saints' intra-club Watters said, like everyone, he was shocked by the Australian Crime Commission report that uncovered links between organised crime and performance-enhancing drugs being used by elite athletes. And the Saints are another AFL club that immediately conducted an internal audit of all daily procedures. There has been an enormous amount of opinion and comment on what's gone on. Everyone in the industry, it has caused us to reflect. You wouldn't be human if that's not the case," he said. You do look at your internal processes. We're really comfortable and really reassured where we sit, the importance of our doctor being the ultimate filter on anything that happens here, medically. That's something that we've always had, but it certainly brings that into focus. It also causes you to look at your staff and we've got staff here that I have full confidence in the ethics they bring to the football club. Whilst you always have to be vigilant, we're really comfortable from a process and staff point of view. But it's a testing time for everyone and we're part of that. It (ACC report) was certainly some interesting reading. Obviously, we'll all sit back and wait to see where it all goes.
