"The NRL is in close and productive negotiation with the Australian Crime Commission to establish a formal mechanism by which we can inform individual clubs that they have been the subject of intelligence gathering by the ACC," the NRL said in a statement released on Sunday.

"Tony Whitlam QC is today continuing to assist the NRL in establishing a formal set of procedures with the ACC through which information can be passed to the clubs.

"This framework should be established in 24-48 hours.

"Once this information is passed on the NRL will not, under the guidelines outlined by the ACC, be able to identify the clubs publicly.

"This will be a matter for the individual clubs to consider in consultation with ASADA (Australian Sports Anti-Doping Authority), the ACC and the NRL.

"While acknowledging media speculation about the number of clubs today, the NRL remains bound by strict legal constraints and these have been reinforced today by both the ACC and Justice Minister Jason Clare."

News Limited on Sunday speculated that six clubs were involved as part of the ACC's investigation

What a farce this all is.

If anyone is found guilty, it will be the administrators and not the players. A bit like Melbourne storm salary cap, the players that were guilty as sin and they KNEW it, got off scott free with no charges of any kind.

So basically players who have been snorting Rhino jizz in order to get more jacked will just need to say they had no idea of what was legal or not and just relied on expert advice from coaching staff and they will have nothing to answer for.

you are correct only if they administered the drugs while the players were in a coma or heavily sedated

the "i didnt know what the coach was giving me" excuse is probably the most common defence for a positive drugs test in sports but i doubt it ever works

THE Australian Crime Commission has permitted the NRL and AFL to notify clubs that have been identified in the commission's investigation into drug and crime links to sport.

This from the article has me interested:

"After the ACC report stated one game was being investigated for match-fixing, the AFL denied it was one in their league, leaving an NRL Match as the most likely subject of the probe."Read more here:

Not sure why this was deleted because it makes on really big point.

"Once this information is passed on the NRL will not, under the guidelines outlined by the ACC, be able to identify the clubs publicly.

That adds a bit more to the theory this is just a way of dsitracting the public from real other issues.

Really? It's stupid of him to name names unless he's 100% sure it's not only true, but that the truth (if that is the case) will come out. Big claim.

Who knew *name removed* could be so stupid and act without thinking things through?
