Former Victorian Police Chief Commissioner Kel Glare has called on every AFL executive who knew about the league's secret drug-testing regime to resign over the 'disgraceful' scandal.
Glare - who was the state's top cop for five years - said the league has been making it easy for footy stars to take drugs after sensational allegations against the league and its clubs were tabled in federal parliament.
On Tuesday night, MP Andrew Wilkie revealed whistleblowers including a former president and club doctor from the Melbourne Demons alleged the AFL orchestrates secret off-the-books drugs tests that keep stars from facing punishment.

Glare believes executives like recently departed CEO Gillon McLachlan (pictured) have to go because they presided over a system that 'encourages drug use'
Wilkie alleged widespread drug abuse among footy stars and claimed fake injuries are created so drug-taking players can't be tested for illicit substances on game day, when positive results would see them face long bans from the sport.
