Yeah thought that was the case.
I know we have discussed this before,
But it's now taken 18 months to put some names out there officially.
At the start they named 6 other clubs and yet not a word has been said since about those 6 clubs.
Pollies, radio jocks and retired experts are all now saying it's the biggest joke since Benny Hill and it has been a major stuff up from the word go.
And now they want the Sharks players to admit guilt to get a lesser ban for something they may of not done.
I don't think Monty Python could of come up with a better script.
I hope after the circus has left town that all that have fuelled the fire are held to some sort of accountability.

any guestimates on what this past 18 months has cost the australian tax-payers?
The said on the TV that has cost the Sharks around 4mil so far ,sponsors, fines and legal fee's just for a start.
I would also say lost membership and revenue,
Will take along time to get over this

It'd be good if the rolling over involved dobbing on another club.

:lmao x 1 million
She believes a lot
Do we get a more lesser sentence considering the M&M's didn't work anyway.
Banned, there all have been on the bannnnnnnnnned list, burp :drunk
Mr Innocent has done nothing wrong mate, just ask him. He's got nothing to worry about.
I still have my gut feeling that ASADA have nothing substantial against any of the players or coaching staff, and this reduced sentence is the only way they are gunna get any sort of charges to stick.
It is interesting that so far none of the players have come out saying "Shove your deal up your arse I have done nothing wrong". That's what an innocent person would have done.
This "need to think about it" rubbish to me is almost an admission that the dodgey was done, but the thing they are weighing up is how much do asada know and what can they prove.

Observing the WADA code has cost tax payers some money over the last 18 months. To be given the privilege of hosting the Olympics or a soccer world cup we have to pay these kinds of costs.
So by all means ask that question, but ask yourself how much money was pumped into the Australian economy for the 2000 Olympics.
If we want to host a soccer world cup in the near future, is the cost of conforming to the WADA code worth it. Australia will be ahead by billions of dollars.

Not really. They've probably been advised by their lawyers not to comment.
Furthermore, this has dragged on for 18 months now, just hanging like a dirty stench. Even if I felt I were innocent, I'd seriously consider taking the offer just to put the whole saga to bed. If they have the option of taking the 6 months they can return to football early next year. They still have a career and by mid next year it'll probably be forgotten.
People often settle in civil cases despite not having any feeling of guilt, just because legal battles are long, painful, highly stressful and expensive.
