News couldn't have asked for a better scandal to hit RL since their share in the game came to an end.

Another piece of grubby 'Journalism' from News. Unless guilty NO ONE should of been named publically



How did they get the names???

The Manly boss told BSB this morning that he does not even know which Manly players have received a letter from ASADA requesting an interview.

I saw Bourbon Bec having a whinge that some people have had the hide to complain about where the leaks are coming from, rather than just join in on the News Ltd witch hunt.

Just sticking up for herself and the two guys who do probably 96% of the work.

Oh and her "quality journalism".

Her words.

Talking about tainted. The whole fekin game has been tainted by news ltd over this.

Hope the drop off in interest affects their bottom line.


So many perspectives on this issue. It will be interesting to know which one is correct when ASADA produces its report.

Alex Rodriguez, baseball's highest-paid player in the United States and one of the sport's greatest hitters, has been suspended for a record 211 games for doping offences.
The suspension was the biggest action taken so far against doping by baseball officials, as another 12 players were handed 50-game suspensions.
They were banned for using testosterone or human growth hormone following a long investigation into links between top players and a Florida clinic accused of supplying performance enhancing drugs.

Wow now that is a ban!
I suspect that any club or player getting found guilty in the AFL /NRL will just get a token punishment and nothing like the above despite the damage they have done to our sport.

Not really... The MLB Season is 162 games, without counting the playoffs, and preseason. He is looking just over a year really.
