I'm actually quite worried if he was selling to raiders players now.
Well its alleged he was definitely using them back in 2011 at Penrith when he was recovering from a shoulder injury. Hard to see him trafficking shit from Canberra tbh.

Can there be a criminal charge for trafficking peptides?



If not, I don't see the point in him seeking a reduced sentence by giving up other players.

He wouldn't be welcomed at another club after doing that.
Who cares about other NRL players... He could be looking at a 4yr ban.

He's gonna be trying to have a career as an athlete.

He could still roll on other players and play RU overseas.

So we now know Earl is Mafia, and Dave Smith is Town.

Does that mean ASADA is an Independent?

:lol:

Well done, might go unnoticed by the majority though.

This could end up being very big or just fizzle out. Panthers/Raiders fans might have the most to worry about if this is all true, but who knows how far his "client network" reaches.

If he does not assist, he would probably get a life ban. Maybe, in the end he has some morals and identifies other cheats (including himself).

I don't wish this on any club tbh but I think its safe to say there are going to be more infraction notices sooner rather than later based on Earls evidence. Be it teammates he was supplying or just other Rugby league players/Wada code sportsmen he knew outside his clubs.

Nah cult.

Anyway, I wonder what this'll mean in the long run, hopefully there aren't many or any other players involved, particularly not Parramatta players from a personal perspective.

OK so the International Rugby Board (IRB) is a WADA signatory and the French Rugby Federation (FFR) is a member of the IRB, and Pau is a member of the FFR so doesn't this completely f**k up his move to France?

Hence the reason he is co-operating to get a reduced ban

Even with fully cooperation, I would guess he still faces a 2-4 year ban.

Anyone who thinks that Cronulla should be sacked from the NRL are delusional.

Canberra should be outed right now.

What a cast of stars....Ferguson, Robinson, Dugan, Furner and their Board. That's 2013 for starters!

Can't forget Carney and Tilse either.....I'm sure there's a lot more Raiders illuminaries.
