Guess we can rule out premiership stripping as a form of punishment

@innsaneink said:@Yossarian said:@Cultured Bogan said:@innsaneink said:AT least six Sharks players are in the sights of ASADA officials, who this week commenced interviews at the club in relation to the agency's widespread investigation into doping in Australian sport.
Leading bookmakers have also just suspended betting on the Sharks' first round clash with the Titans.
It's understood the players of interest maintained personal contact with sports scientist Stephen Dank, who worked at Cronulla for a brief period in early 2011.
Dank was dismissed after a falling out with Sharks doctor David Givney, who didn’t approve of the manner in which he administered supplements.
News Limited has also revealed that Dank **supplied at least one Sharks player with blood thinning agent, Warfarin,** and used a private room at former medical clinic in Bankstown to inject players away from their clubs.
There was also rampant speculation that a press conference would be held this afternoon to announce the individuals concerned, but the NRL has denied any knowledge of this.
Comment is currently being sought from Sharks officials.

If the player didn't have a clotting condition then this is bloody irresponsible on Dank's part. Mishandling of dosage can cause a wide range of issues, especially in a high contact sport where bleeding, both internally and externally, are high risk.
I think the bigger scandal will be another ex-player who certainly didn't need blood thinning or other medication given his well-known disease… Certainly did him no favours in the long run
re you referring to John Mannah?
@GNR4LIFE said:It wouldn't surprise me at all if the entire game was corrupt. Last yr the refereeing was totally disgraceful. The Cowboys had their season ended on some of the worst calls in the last 5 yrs, The Warriors seemingly threw away 20 point leads every week, and even we conceded 30 points in the last 13 mins of a game
It was a strange, strange season
