Very disappointing.

If true then there is something deeply wrong at Hawthorn.
Also how on earth is Gold Coast only on 4?
If tests were done by a club and they found that players were guilty of other criminal offences such as rape or assault, they would report them to police. Why not these?Remember these tests don't have to be done as part of the WADA code and are really only there because people think players aren't human and allow for education and support when they don't have to submit to it.
Regardless of your views about whether drug laws are unjust, possession and/or use of those drugs is a criminal offence in New South Wales with a penalty of up to $2,200 or 2 years imprisonment. If those tests had been performed by police rather than the AFL, they would be sufficient grounds to lay charges and likely to convict.
I'm not ok with it, at all.

Or are clubs now the bastions of moral authority, with the absolute discretion to deterimine which laws are important and which are not?

The second part is correct, however use is also a criminal offence in and of itself. Testing positive to an illegal drug would at least strongly suggest prior use.Because testing positive in itself is not a criminal act. Possession doesn't apply retroactively.

Would you expect the club to notify the police of players jaywalking on their way to training or starting to back out of the car park without their seatbelt all the way on?If tests were done by a club and they found that players were guilty of other criminal offences such as rape or assault, they would report them to police.
