Laurence Angwin (born 7 October 1982) is a former Australian rules footballer who played in the Australian Football League (AFL). He is infamous for being sacked by his team, the Carlton Football Club after turning up to training having used recreational drugs.〔Carbonell, R. ("AFL allegations of recreational drug use" ), ''The World Today'', 7 April 2004, Accessed 28 January 2010〕 The grandson of former Hawthorn Peter Crimmins Medallist Andy Angwin,〔Ahmed, N. "Angwin's dream chance", ''The Age'', 15 December 2002, p. 57〕 Angwin was drafted by Adelaide Football Club at pick 7 in the first round of the 2000 AFL Draft. Angwin lasted only one season with Adelaide without playing a game at senior level. Battling injuries and emotional issues, he was delisted in 2001 and returned to Melbourne.〔 After playing for Box Hill Hawks in 2002, Angwin was drafted by Carlton at pick 17 in the 2003 Rookie draft and he made his AFL debut in Round 14, 2003. By the end of the 2003 AFL season Angwin was considered a future star at Carlton.〔''Blueseum'', ("Laurence Angwin" ), Accessed 28 January 2010〕 However, continuing off-field problems, including charges being laid against him from stealing from team mate Karl Norman, meant he remained a controversial player.〔 Early in the 2004 season, after Carlton's Round 2 win against , it was claimed that Angwin and Norman arrived at a Carlton training session under the influence of ecstasy.〔 While Norman admitted to taking the drug, Angwin denied it but a subsequent drug test proved positive and Angwin was sacked by Carlton.〔Wilson, J. ("Agony of the ecstacy" ), ''Fox Sports'', Accessed 29 January 2010〕 Angwin has now signed with the Wyndhamvale Falcons in the Western Region Football League's division two for the 2009 season. As of 2013, it was reported that Angwin was playing for Ouyen United, along with former AFL players Damian Cupido, Relton Roberts and Kane Munro, in the Mallee Football League. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Laurence Angwin」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
