Retired AFL star Sam Fisher has admitted he trafficked methamphetamine and cocaine between Victoria and Western Australia. Fisher, 41, appeared at the Victorian County Court on Thursday via video link where he formally pleaded guilty to six charges. They include trafficking a large commercial quantity of methamphetamine, trafficking cocaine and possessing drugs including LSD, ketamine and testosterone.

Fisher was remanded in custody following his arrest but he successfully applied for bail in July 2022. He was released to a residential rehabilitation facility where he has spent the past 18 months receiving treatment for his drug addiction. Fisher remained mostly silent during Thursday’s court appearance and showed little emotion, only stating his pleas of guilty after each charge was read to him.
