We keep getting pegged by the club and keep coming back so the Dildo Parramatta Eels is appropriate!
The NRL has been plunged into a fresh drugs crisis, after Kirisome Auva'a allegedly recorded a second strike under the NRL's illicit drugs policy.
Just weeks after Parramatta superstar Corey Norman was charged over possession of MDMA - also known as ecstasy - capsules and muscle relaxants at Sydney's The Star casino, it's understood Auva'a recorded the second incursion of his career under the NRL's illicit drugs policy.
Fairfax Media has been told the contravention is the result of irregularities presented during routine testing at the club. It's understood Auva'a did not return a positive test for an illicit or hazardous substance.
Under the policy, players who record a second contravention will serve a 12-match ban, face the prospect of contract termination and further treatment and monitoring. If a third is recorded, offenders are referred to the NRL CEO or COO, who are tasked with determining an appropriate sanction.
Auva'a has not played in any grade since the incident occurred several weeks ago. The premiership-winning three-quarter has a chequered history after pleading guilty to two charges of recklessly causing serious injury and criminal damage over an incident that occurred in Melbourne in January 2014.
The Samoa international was suspended for nine months before making his return to Souths via feeder team North Sydney Bears.
Given his rap sheet, Auva'a is facing the prospect of being sacked, a sanction that could effectively end his NRL career.
Auva'a's manager, Andrew Purcell, declined to comment.
Fairfax Media has been told Auva'a and teammate Paul Carter were stood down indefinitely after allegedly reporting for South Sydney training under the influence of alcohol.
Both players were stood down indefinitely, with Carter due to front the Rabbitohs board on July 12 after being issued with a show-cause notice. Having already been sacked by the Gold Coast, Carter was warned he was on his last chance after signing a new deal with Souths.
The incidents could result in the club sacking both Carter and Auva'a to send a strong message to their teammates about the standards expected at the Pride of the League.
The Auva'a drama is the second drugs scandal engulfing the club in as many years. Dylan Walker and Aaron Gray almost lost their lives after misusing prescription medications provided to treat injuries last season.
The pair made a full recovery, with the club granting Walker an early release from his contract to continue his career with Manly.
The latest drama caps a nightmare season for South Sydney that could result in the club recording its worst season result since 2006, when they earned the wooden spoon. The Rabbitohs currently sit in 13th position and face Brisbane following this week's bye.
I've been saying that for years.......Exciting announcement coming up.
Well maybe not exciting.

Tackle One - Broncos are Semi keen
Semi Radradra's estranged partner Perina Ting has levelled disturbing allegations against the Eels superstar.
Radradra must be given the presumption of innocence but if these allegations are proven the NRL is likely to come down hard on him. There must be zero tolerance for domestic violence.
There's a long way to go in the saga, however there does now appear to be some degree of comfort around his intention to stay put at Parramatta until the end of 2017.
Finally breaking his silence last week, the Fijian's manager George Christadoulou confirmed there was a lucrative eight-month deal on the table from French rugby club Bourdeaux.
He said Radradra was attracted to leave by the superior financial rewards and the opportunity to escape from his difficult personal circumstances.
But when the NRL made it clear he'd be never allowed back into the game - and possible hit with an injunction - it all turned sour.
One of Radradra's biggest gripes was the accommodation Eels officials had given him - an apartment in 'The Bronx'. Parramatta is now promising to move him somewhere better.
Christadoulou also hit-out at rumours Radradra was owed third party money.
On the contrary, the Eels say he's been upgraded three separate times since arriving at the club in late 2012 and now stand to earn $400,000 next year.
That's also the final season of his current contract and Parramatta is working hard to secure him beyond that.
But don't count out the Broncos, who have an ace up their sleeve in recruitment man Peter Nolan.
Working for Parramatta four years ago, Nolan was the man who signed Radradra to the blue and gold and made his adaptation to Australian life as easy as possible.
He even took a month to convince Radradra to sleep in a bed and eat meat - two fairly essential habits for any professional footballer.
Tackle Five - Will on the Hop
Parramatta's failure to appoint a permanent CEO has meant its civil dispute with Will Hopoate is headed for a Supreme Court hearing.
Hopoate's is suing the Eels for $1.83 million; alleging they unlawfully reneged on a three-year contract extension last season.
The matter was set down for mediation - an attempt to reach an out-of-court settlement - a few weeks ago.
But according to Hopoate's legal team, the Eels turned up unprepared thanks to the ongoing leadership vacuum.
Interim boss Ian Schubert arrived to meet Hopoate and his team with a lawyer. Neither were familiar enough with the case to engage in any worthwhile discussions; meaning a court date was set for later in the year.
It's likely to go ahead in either November or December.
For the record we've heard Schubert is keen to be a appointed full time CEO and has the support of head coach Brad Arthur.
:lol: Serious????what's wrong with Ian :?
