Michael Jennings of Parramatta Eels has been provisionally suspended after a 21 September anti-doping test performed by Sport Integrity Australia returned an adverse analytical finding (AAF) for LGD-4033 (Lingradol) and Ibutamoren, Australia’s National Rugby League (NRL) has announced. “I am totally against any form of cheating in sport and am completely shocked to find myself in this position”, said Jennings, reported The Sydney Morning Herald. “I will do everything I can to clear my name”. In a statement, Parramatta Eels said that it would support Jennings. 

In September last year, the Athletics Integrity Unit (AIU) of World Athletics provisionally suspended South African sprinter Carina Horn after she returned an AAF for exactly the same substances as Jennings. She blamed contaminated supplements and told Eyewitness News that there had been delays in her case.

Swimming Australia is preparing to defend a four year ban issued to Shayna Jack in July last year, after she also returned an AAF for LGD-4033 (Lingradol). Jack appealed to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), also blaming contaminated supplements. The CAS told SwimSwam that the hearing date has been kept secret at the request of all parties.
