Dragons NYC player suspended


by St. George Illawarra Dragons
July 04 2014 5:00PM

The Dragons have been made aware by the NRL Integrity Unit of a positive test and provisional suspension of NYC Player Dylan Lauri in line with the NRL's Anti-doping policy.

Lauri, 19, has been stood down by the NRL from all rugby league activities for a positive A-sample test to a banned anabolic steroid, nandrolone.

Lauri has played seven NYC games this year and has also played with Western Suburbs in the local Illawarra League.

"This advice from the NRL came as a complete surprise to us and we would be extremely disappointed if a player has acted outside the systems, guidance and education provided by the Club and NRL," said Dragons CEO Peter Doust.

"Dylan has participated in Anti-Doping Education as well as further internal information sessions delivered by our High Performance Staff.

"We fully support the NRL's position and decision".

In relation to supplements and medications provided by the Club to players, the Dragons fully comply with NRL Rules and Policies and have conducted internal testing and education sessions in addition to the NRL requirements, at all levels of Club activities.

The B-Sample is yet to be tested and Lauri has the opportunity to work through a documented process. Whilst this provisional suspension does not permit Lauri to train or play, the NRL and Dragons have put steps in place in regards to the player's welfare.

I hope you read the official statement from the club and accept the individual player was acting outside of the auspices of the club.
The player was immediately stood down (sacked) from all duties and the club supports the NRL ruling on this decision. We do not condone this behaviour or anything that may bring the club or game into disrepute unlike others. You should try it once....

Now even you should've known I was being sarcastic.
I'm right about bourbon Beccy though - she'd have squirted profusely if it were a sharks player.
