I can't speak highly enough of the amount of work certain bunnies fans and Broncos fans have done in the off season to bring Sharks fans and dragons fans together.

It would be a miracle if no Suns are involved.

Either that or a flat out cover up.

Big difference between "use" and "supply". Being involved in use is small time. A first offense is no serious punishment in both the NRL and AFL. Supply is the real issue.

everything I have read so far is linking the Broncos in on this because of the connection with Karmichael Hunt and the fact that Brisbane isn't that far from the Gold Coast (geographically)

so basically, there's absolutely no evidence to link in the Broncos only a matter of "he played for you and now he's going to get busted", or "they are close to you and now they're going to get busted"

all the activity surrounding the cocaine was at a mad monday party, as I am sure you are all aware the Broncos were still active in the race for the premiership at that time

obviously it's a concern but there's no real evidence to suggest that any Brisbane player did anything wrong

Wendell Sailor copped a 2 year ban for the use of Cocaine, as a well informed policeman what would you suggest the penalty be for supply?

I mean you've just stated it's a worse offense, surely the penalty must be out of this world

That's an ignorant way of comparing apples and oranges. Read the rulebooks of both the NRL and AFL. Neither suspends on a 1st strike if it's not performance enhancing and not during competition.

From the SMH article regarding the Broncos:

Fairfax Media understands the NRL is preparing for the worst, despite having no firm evidence on which to base its concerns, and the clear links between the club and former Bronco Karmichael Hunt, coupled with Brisbane's close proximity to the Gold Coast, is putting head office on high alert.

This is what has got some posters so excited? :lol:

Carry on...

Don't worry my team got a million dollar fine for legal pretend drugs
Yet - not one single positive test or proof .

It was all because of association .

Man its amazing in this modern social media age, that its been less than a week and people are already "hurry up and get on with!!"

if they've supposedly got the evidence to charge people then they should get on with it rather than drag it out. they either have other players or they dont.

sure they could be tapping all the players phones etc and seeing what else they spook, or this could be grandstanding ala asada.

Would be just precautionary given the scuttlebutt surely. If all this heat generates no light it will go back to business as usual.
