The report did not identify the players but did disclose their club, as well as details about the frequency and nature of their drug use.<br /><br />The club was scrambling last night to try to learn the names of the players from the AFL, damaged by the public leak of information that senior club officials were not entitled to be told.<br /><br />Under the AFL's controversial three-strikes illicit drug policy, clubs cannot be told of a player's drug use until he has returned a third positive test.
