- Wayne_Athorne abstract "Wayne John Athorne (born 7 September 1941) is a former national decathlon champion and Commonwealth Games competitor. He was also an Australian rules footballer with Hawthorn in the Victorian Football League (VFL).Athorne played his early football at Xavier College and trialled at Melbourne before making his VFL debut for Hawthorn in a win over Carlton at Glenferrie Oval in the 1961 season. Hawthorn went on to win their first ever premiership that season. The following year he left football to pursue his love of athletics.As a decathlete, Athorne finished second to John O'Neill in the 1965 Australian Open Track & Field Championships. He went one better in 1966 at Perry Lakes Stadium in Perth and won the decathlon, by just 30 points over South Australian John Hamann.Having become the Australian champion, Athorne competed in the 1966 British Empire and Commonwealth Games, held in Jamaica. He finished fifth in the 120 yards hurdles heats in 15.34 seconds. In the decathlon he amassed 710 points before an injury to his right knee, sustained in the long jump, forced him to withdraw. The injury meant he was unable to take up a scholarship to University of California, Santa Barbara, which had been offered to him.In 1975, Athorne confessed to taking performance enhancing drugs for the three months leading up to the Commonwealth Games. He took Dianabol, an anabolic steroid, which was banned by the International Olympic Committee in 1967. Athorne later spoke on radio about how steroids would not prove effective for Australian rules footballers - a subject he was uniquely placed to comment on.".
