Front cover of yesterdays telegraph. A interesting turn of events but not unexpected

SPORTS scientist Stephen Dank has 11 days to hand over any documents detailing the secrets of his supplement program to two former Cronulla Sharks players who are considering launching legal action against him.
The Sunday Telegraph can reveal ex-Sharks Isaac Gordon and Josh Cordoba are in the preliminary stages of deciding whether to add Dank as a defendant in a lawsuit potentially worth millions of dollars concerning the alleged ill-effects of his supplement program implemented at the club during the 2011 season.
The two players are already taking the Sharks to court for negligence and may now take aim at Dank.
The development is significant because Dank has resisted all interview requests by the Australian Sports Anti-Doping Authority and has threatened court action to ensure he never has to.
The information could be revealed if Dank is called as a witness and legally compelled to answer questions. But it remains to be seen if he will appeal against the court order

good to see that some facts might start coming out. bodes a bit better for the future and the players can actually find out what they were injected with. Could be a death blow for Cronulla if legal action is sucessful and they dont have their medical indemnity insurance in order.
