Looks like some are still out for us:

TUCKED away in a quiet Bankstown back street, this was the building NRL players visited to receive private treatments from Stephen Dank.
The Daily Telegraph can reveal that Dank - the sports scientist at the centre of ASADA's doping inquiry - met certain players at a room within the recently demolished Eldridge Rd premises to inject them with supplements.
There is no suggestion the supplements were prohibited and Dank has repeatedly denied the use of any substances that contravene the WADA code, such as illicit peptides.
However, his private relationship with certain players away from their clubs is a primary focus of the explosive ACC report and subsequent ASADA investigation.
In one-hour briefings conducted at Sydney clubs this week, ASADA officers have mentioned Dank's name to players after the former Manly and Essendon sports scientist last week confessed to being one of 33 people questioned by the ACC.
They've also been informed about telephone recordings that were collected over the course of the commission's one-year investigation.
For a period of his tenure at Manly, which extended from 2004 to 2010, Dank was living in Bankstown and used the nearby building to treat players off-site.
The building was once the headquarters of Workcare Medical, a workplace injury prevention firm, and has since been demolished.
When The Daily Telegraph visited late yesterday, only a vacant lot remained. A senior employee - no longer working at the company - gave Dank access to a room within the building to conduct his treatment of players.
It's not clear how many were treated off-site, but The Daily Telegraph has been told Dank attempted to establish private contact with players from another club he briefly consulted for in early 2011.
Dank was studying for his pharmacology PhD at the time, but is no longer enrolled for the higher tertiary honour with Sydney University.
Dank did not respond to phone or text inquiries yesterday. His barrister, Gregory Stanton, also didn't respond to a list of questions about Dank's treatment of players inside the Bankstown building. Stanton initially asked to see a copy of this report before publication, but The Daily Telegraph refused.
Workcare Medical also failed to respond to similar inquiries about the company's connection to Dank.
ASADA officers have briefed Penrith, Manly and Canberra players and staff over the past week.
The clubs were strongly reminded about the points discount on offer for confessing or providing information that assists ASADA.
Players were also warned that ASADA would soon begin to interview individuals of interest, with around 150 people across both codes believed to be on the hitlist.
Cronulla players are yet to be briefed, but the club has held internal meetings with those who've been at Sharks Stadium since Dank left in early 2011.
Coach Shane Flanagan this week told Fox Sports News the drama had taken a mental toll.
"Before this ASADA and ACC stuff came out there was great excitement around the Shire and this team," he said. "It's been dampened a little."
