The difference with the Manly story (so far) is Josh Perry complained to club staff when Dank and his mate tried to do injections, whereas the Sharks players and club staff (allegedly) just seem to have said... ok?

Sounds exactly the same situation to me. Josh Perry complaining about injections which resulted in Dank's termination is no different to Isaac Gordon complaing about Dank giving him a product which caused him bruising which resulted in the latter's termination. The one difference I can see is that Cronulla realised he was dodgy after 4 months thus sacked him, but Manly it took them 4 years.

To be fair, maybe Dank became real dodge towards the end of his time with Manly, who knows?
But yeah lol at Manly!

Paul Kent said last night on NRL360 that the difference between Sharks and Manly is that the players @ the Shire were given peptide injections. When Danks left some sourced their own.

@ Manly players heard on the grapevine about the peptide gear and sourced it themselves.

Manly players were injected with calves blood at former player Josh Perry's northern beaches home. Details on Tele website soon #NRL

Big dramas unfolding at Manly. Story soon on The Australian website


So Manly next to be dragged through this, can't see them getting the same support sharks do/did

Gallen will probably knock on Gronk's door tonight and abuse him for that

So Manly won their 2011 Premiership whilst on the gear ?

They should strip them and award it to the runners up.

While we're at it, strip Storm of their 2009 Premiership (check) and award it to the runners up too.

ASADA, take your time, do it right and get the feckers. Cheats need to be shown for what they are.
