Ice pipes and ecstasy tablets were allegedly found inside the bedroom of footy legend Mark ‘Bomber’ Thompson, a court has heard.
The AFL premiership-winning coach had his up-market Port Melbourne home raided earlier this year a part of a large-scale drug trafficking investigation.
Police allegedly found the coach’s DNA on packaging which contained more than 33 grams of ice, 4.2 grams of amphetamines and an LSD tablet, a court heard.
He was interviewed by police and is considered a ‘person of interest’ in the investigation but has not been charged, the Herald Sun reported.

Details about the raid at Mr Thompson’s home were revealed in a courtroom in Geelong, Victoria as Thomas Windsor – a man who used to live with the former Essendon coach – applied for bail.
Windsor, 28, was arrested in the raid and is facing multiple charges including counts of trafficking commercial quantities of amphetamine, ice and trafficking ecstasy.
In court, Senior Constable Naomi Bourke claimed MDMA and various other drugs were seized from the house as well as drug paraphernalia.
Behind Mr Thompson’s locked doors were digital scales, clear resealable bags and Xanax tablets, according to Senior Constable Bourke.
Mr Thompson has previously refused to answer questions about why an alleged drug-trafficker was living in his home after the raids.
He has denied involvement with criminal activity.
Senior Constable Bourke claimed a signed rental agreement was found at the Port Melbourne home which said Windsor was paying the Mr Thompson $300 a week to live there.

She also claimed Windsor was also driving a rental car which was supported by Mr Thompson.
Detectives said the pair had separate bedrooms but shared some living spaces.
Windsor has previously served jail time for trafficking more than 100g of meth.
His bail application was adjourned until June, and he will return to court later in May for a preliminary hearing on the charges he is facing.
