The Cronulla board met away from their leagues club at a secret location on Wednesday night to discuss the implications of ASADA's findings, which are believed to surround the use of peptides in 2011 when controversial sports scientist Stephen Dank was at the club.
The peptides were not illegal when first introduced but were later placed on the banned list.
It's alleged some players defied the ban and continued to use them.
The players have reportedly been offered six-month bans up front if they plead guilty but could be outed for two years if they fight the allegations and fail to prove their innocence.
When that scenario was put to a Sharks insider on Wednesday night, he told Sportal: "All that is feasible.
"We are hoping for the best but it could turn into a nightmare."
Officially, Cronulla are saying very little about the matter with coach Shane Flanagan and officials uncontactable on Wednesday.
Betting agencies across Australia suspended betting on Sunday's Cronulla-Gold Coast clash until more information came to light.
Cronulla put out a statement at 6.02pm which read: "Sharks fans and all rugby league supporters can be assured the club has been very proactive in fully cooperating with ASADA and taking other measures that prioritise the integrity of our club and the welfare of our playing group.
"While there are strict boundaries around what we can say while the ASADA investigation is ongoing, fans should be assured that as soon as there is an opportunity to provide further information we will do so."
A Sharks spokesman added: "It's business as usual. It's all speculation at this stage."
The spokesman said the decision to shut the media out from training on Wednesday and to pull players from a promotional meet and greet on Thursday was to avoid adding to the drama.
"Flanno (Flanagan) didn't want the players distracted by having to talk about something they know nothing about," he said.
The Sharks were to head into the season as one of the premiership favourites after adding Chris Heighington, Beau Ryan, Jono Wright and Michael Gordon to their roster.
But the dream of that elusive first premiership would now appear in tatters.
The NRL is yet to comment or confirm the status of Cronulla's season opener against the Titans.
Just received conspiracy theory number #12 about the drugs issue and its by far the most entertaining.
Steve Menzies has rolled over to the ACC and dobbed them all in.
Premierships to be stripped, world to end etc etc.
No wonder Rebecca Wilson has jumped on the WSW bandwagon. The whole world is going to shit.
Granted: Conspiracy theory #11 involved Lance Armstrong and the Teletubbies so you know, grain of salt and all that.
lowes will be sold out of sloppy joes tomorrow
Hmm seeing a knights fan tonight getting taken away with drugs in his bag by the cops at halftime then decides to tap on my shoulder
Hmm going to be a long season.
Also there was some video camera flying around filming parts of the game, looked like a ufo filming the supporters.
billy slater: biggest grub in the sport (on the field). discuss.
seriously, how many times does this guy get to drop the knees, slide in feet first, kick someone in the face before the commentators realise he IS "that type of player"?
yeah for sure. i think only queenslanders like him anyway.
who tapped you on the shoulder SD? der polizei?Quote:

shit fxxxing sport
but the player tackling him was in the wrong ?Quote:

Found It What a DIRTY ****
What happens when you allow people with low IQ's role model statusQuote:
THE Brisbane Broncos have today ended negotiations with Josh Dugan following his vile social media comments in which he told a Canberra Raiders fan to "end yourself".
The Broncos were willing to sign Dugan to a three-year $2 million deal if the NRL allowed his contract to be registered after he was sacked by the Raiders earlier this month for repeated code of conduct breaches.
The final straw for the Raiders was when he uploaded a photo to Instagram of himself giving the finger with an alcoholic drink in his hand while on the roof of a house.
The Broncos' interest ended today.
"We will not be making any attempt to register a contract for Josh Dugan with the NRL," Broncos’ chief executive Paul White said.
"While there were some negotiations, they are now over.
"In light of some fresh allegations of inappropriate behaviour, the Broncos have decided not to take the matter any further."
I understand Broncos had been impressed with Dugan's attitude during negotiations and thought he was in it for the right reasons.

Dugan was today forced to apologise after hurling abuse on social media again, this time telling a Canberra Raiders fan to "end yourself".
Dugan went berserk on social media photo-sharing app Instagram late on Saturday night.
After Dugan posted a photo of himself and a friend with their shirts off, Raiders fans began antagonising the 22-year-old.
They criticised Dugan's lack of responsibility and said that the Raiders were better off with replacement fullback Reece Robinson.
A user named @gearbox82 wrote: "There's a man that can not Handel responsibly. Leaves his club, leaves his missus. I'd hate to be your dog.''
Another user named @mark-raider1 then replied: "dw (don't worry) we got Reece lightning Robinson''.
Dugan, who broke up with his long-term partner earlier this month, seemingly had enough of the taunts and wrote a series of vile responses (editor's note: expletives removed).
"I'd hate to be ya nuffie. At least my dog doesn't speak up like you ya loud mouth ... who are ya by the way? I could never play another game of NRL and I've still accomplished more than you.
"haha righto Marky Mark: go get another Raiders Tattoo then end yourself. Your mrs is hot too by the way haha you obviously don't read the news more the fool you haha your a joke.
"All my tats put together are better than your one rubbish one plus your bad head. Should call you don bradman ya batting well above average with her. Send her my way ill show her the time of her life.''
Dugan has since deleted the comments and apologised on Twitter.
Responding to News Limited's story, Dugan explained he was being constantly bullied.
"2 sides to every story and only the bad side of my story has been told over the last few weeks. Yes I stuffed up and yes I’m paying my price but people go on and on about bullying when I am constantly being harassed for simply putting a photo up.
"I apologise to those who I had bad words with but I am a normal person like anyone else.
"Media can write what they want but have not spoken to me personally or seen the abuse I have copped.
"Life goes on and I’m trying to move forward with my life and career.”
The NRL employed Charlotte Dawson as an anti-bullying ambassador this year.
Dawson was also told to kill herself on social media last year, causing her to breakdown and self-admit to hospital.
The NRL has a strict code of conduct when it comes to social media.

caption competition! (wasn't sure where to put this photo. i'm not saying league is crap, but putting it in the awesome thread seemed wrong in some way)

It was just over a year ago - albeit after immense public pressure and not the NRL's initiative - that Lui was suspended for the 2012 season after he assaulted his partner Taleah Rae Backo.
On the football field people find it easier to forget Lui allegedly kicked Backo, the mother of his child, in the temple and head-butted her on the Tigers' Mad Monday celebrations in 2011. he physically and verbally abused his then girlfriend, who was seven months pregnant at the time, allegedly telling her: "Hit me, hit me, I'll hit you back. It's self defence, I'll kill you f ... ing bitch."
The pink jersey weekend is an initiative of the league bosses, has fkall to do with the fkwits that play the game.
Can you imagine the media fallout if Timmy slapped his wife in the face ?
The sickening thing about all of this is the continued propaganda, covering up all the ills of the eggball codes, yet highlighting anything remotely negative from football.
It's the sort of stuff the North Koreans do with politics !

what form of person thinks it's acceptable to urinate in public, let alone in the middle of a field, on television?
seriously - why is this sport not banned? who wants to go and watch rapists urinate in public?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g8CKBlmBIeQ
puts a whole new meaning to the term piss ninja
How can thousands of qld & nsw mongs abuse the fk out of each other and get into fistys but not be regarded as hools? ah thats right its ok in this game
Will admit Paul Gallen was lucky he wasn't sent offQuote:

Pfft...I ended up relaxing and being entertained by the Lions on Fox. The biggest criticism of SOO on Twitter last night was the overhype and talk before the game.
BTW - can anyone remember who the Brisbane player was who pissed under the goalposts at Lang Park many years ago - it has happened before.
Pauline Hanson look a like was more gruesome than that packer bloke.

Yeah it was Don McKinnon playing for Manly at the old Lang Park (Suncorp).Quote:

If you don't want the hype/rubbish just wait til 10.30pm and watch it on replay on Fox. You get it in HD and they cut all the gibbering out.
Another big day at the office for eggball......
