I figured that for one to be defamed, one must be named.
This line from his press release:
"The claims arise out of false allegations in the media that the plaintiffs have sold illegal drugs to sportspeople."
Suggests his defamation should be focussed on the media who named, not on the Cronulla club who to my knowledge, have ever officially mentioned his name in relation to injecting players with anything.
The "interview" Irvine had with Rothfield also has no mention from Irvine of Danks name at any point.
Sounds like a load of horseshit to me. If he wants to clear his name, then maybe he should prove he has never done anything illegal.
