Two local rugby league clubs have been embroiled in a doping scandal.
The pair of “a-grade” players – from the Southport Tigers and the Tugun Seahawks – have been handed two year bans after testing positive to performance enhancing drugs.
The tests were conducted by the Sports Anti-Doping Authority last year after the Bycroft Cup semi final between the two teams.
Queensland Rugby League has issued a statement, saying “we make no apology for the testing regime to ensure we keep drugs out of the sport.”
