His twitter feed is also pretty surreal if you want to check it out.

Really sad that someone could fall so far.

You don't need to 'have' Twitter. Just google 'brett dallas twitter' and you can read them.

Just about everything! He seems to have had all kinds of problems since retiring and obviously needs help. This is just the latest.

Thanks but in the past it's always asked me to log in to view something. Maybe I had a different setting on the browser I used. Ok now though.

If they are anything like FB, they try to make it look compulsory, but you can usually press the Esc button and continue browsing.

A lot of Aussie RL players have been caught up in drug issues in recent years that aren’t even related to drug taking.

It’s not good and shows player welfare needs to be a bigger part of every clubs strategic thinking.

Sounds a terrible fall from grace.

Have only seen a snippet on his Twitter account.

Liked him very much as a player and he was a gentleman when I met him years ago both at Norths and at home in Wigan.

Had the same experience of him during his Norths days. Very very sad how, what appeared to be a fine young man meets the slippery slope and there is no one there able to avoid this terrible outcome.

One look at Brett’s social media confirms he’s heavily into all sorts of drug taking. That coupled with selling it really is a messy situation.

HAve looked on his social media. Cant find anything out of the ordinary. What I find strange is people on relatively good wages need to turn to crime. I assume he must have been on near 100k a year.

Sorry, beg your pardon what? Nothing from his social media seems out of the ordinary? So thats normal for your everyday twitter feed?

Maybe you should change your name to mumby magic mushrooms.

A couple of years ago after a different arrest there was a report that said he was currently sleeping on family and friends couches. Its fair to say he has been on a downward spiral for some time:
