Ventolin etc are steroids so their use by pro atheletes is highly controlled/monitored, I would have thought that the medical staff/NZF and Clayton would have been aware of there fine print here (basically it sux to be an asthmatic like you and I).

...Still, hopefully this opens the door to James, Hicks, Clapham etc... a mid who has at least played at a half decent level before.

Ventolin is a selective beta two agonist. Not a steroid. Conceivably can be performance enhancing, and it's not unheard of players who are not asthmatic having a couple of puffs of ventolin pregame to help open up there bronchial tree (lungs).
