Please forgive my ignorance , I have not been on here in some time and have to recall how to navigate the site, there was a post a couple of pages back suggesting that Drocs / Noel Coward did not exist and was fabricated ... This would have been a very elaborate ruse as you can watch a testimonial to him on you tube from his church and friends after his death ... if you read what Noel / Drocs said on the Big Footy site and this one I believe that in the later stages of his comments on this site someone else was pretending to be him ... his language skills and use of words change entirely , but that is just my belief
The guy existed though so that is one conspiracy theory you can discount
Thanks TDB ,
it would be good to find that out imo .
From article : WA Police quiz new people, request DNA samples

"Pensioner Noel Geoffrey Coward was interviewed on December 18 at Curtin House by two detectives from the Special Crime Squad.
But Mr Coward is not a person of interest in the case. For many years he has been urging police to look closely at a former taxi driver he brought to their attention after the abduction and murder of Ciara Glennon in 1997.
Mr Coward is unsure why detectives wanted him to fill out the questionnaire or why they wanted his DNA.
He said one of the detectives explained it was part of a process of elimination and they were making the same approach to many more people whose names were on file.
He said the special crime squad had gone to some effort to locate him and arrange the interview.
WA Police would not comment on Mr Cowards account of the interview.
The statement is identical to one issued by Insp Prins in 2012 when the media reported on another man who was interviewed.
Mr Coward said he told the two detectives he wouldnt fill out the questionnaire or let them have his DNA.
Primarily (that was) because I dont trust them, he said. And because they had not, in my opinion, investigated the original evidence I supplied.
(The detective) said he could not show me (the questionnaire) unless I complied and filled it out.
Mr Coward said the detectives then tried to convince him that the former taxi driver was not their man and that he had been last interviewed by police in 2011. Mr Coward is known to*The Sunday Times*because he brought his suspicions about the taxi driver to the newspaper in 2001.
Mr Coward believes police failed in the early years to properly investigate the former taxi driver, who he claims was in Claremont at the precise time Ciara Glennon went missing, and was driving his taxi on the nights the other murder victims, Sarah Spiers and Jane Rimmer, vanished from the entertainment precinct.
Mr Coward said there was other evidence he passed to the police that should have raised a flag about the man.
In 2001, police claimed the taxi drivers explanation for his movements on the night of Ciara Glennons disappearance checked out.
Then-police commissioner Barry Matthews got involved after a university professor and a former senator, both friends of Mr Coward, sought a meeting with Mr Matthews, suggesting Mr Cowards information was not being treated seriously enough. Mr Matthews told the pair that the taxi driver had been interviewed twice and his taxi logs had been checked."
