Possession of nitrous oxide - also known as laughing gas - for recreational use has been a criminal offence in the United Kingdom since 2023 and can result in a two-year prison sentence for repeat offenders. "We've suspended him for Monday's game," said Postecoglou at his pre-match press conference on Thursday.
