West Tigers distance themselves from doping scandal

WESTS Tigers have distanced themselves from the doctor at the centre of the Australian doping scandal.

WESTS Tigers have distanced themselves from the doctor at the centre of the Australian doping scandal, saying Stephen Dank never worked for the club.

The use of supplements at AFL club Essendon Bombers and NRL club Manly Sea Eagles when Dr Dank worked at the clubs has been questioned.

But a statement from Concord Oval-based club the Tigers said claims Dr Dank ever worked with the club are "simply untrue''.

Tigers chief executive Stephen Humphreys said: ``We all have the obligation to protect the integrity of the game. Wests Tigers will fully support the relevant authorities with their investigations.''
