ASADA has recommended the NRL and AFL ban sports scientist Stephen Dank for life over the controversial supplements programs he devised at Cronulla and Essendon.

As 17 past and present Sharks players received 'show cause' notices on Wednesday, The Daily Telegraph learned ASADA has written to both codes to recommend Dank has no further involvement with Australia's two most-watched sports.

17 PLAYERS HIT WITH DOPING NOTICES

The central figure of ASADA's long-running probe, Dank was also the first to receive a 'show cause' notice in March.

The biochemist vowed to only respond in a court of law, and launched a challenge to the Administrative Appeals Tribunal (AAT).

However, The Daily Telegraph can reveal Dank's AAT matter was withdrawn last month.

ASADA STATEMENT ON SHARKS

An AAT spokesman confirmed on Wednesday night it had been ceased on July 2.

Dank also had the option of appealing to the Federal Court, as Essendon has done on behalf of its players earlier this month.

A Federal Court spokesman on Wednesday night confirmed Dank had not initiated any proceedings.

Those developments have left ASADA free to place Dank's name on its Register of Findings.

In the past fortnight, ASADA has sent letters to both the NRL and AFL asking that Dank be issued a life ban by their respective anti-doping tribunals.

ASADA has alleged Sharks players were injected with banned peptides CJC-1295 and GHRP-6 under Dank's watch in 2011, and that Essendon players received another prohibited substance, Thymosin Beta-4, when the sports scientist moved to Melbourne the following season.

ASADA OFFERS SHARKS DEALS FOR ADMISSION

Dank has constantly denied ever providing banned substances to footballers.

However, his name now appears on a banned 'support staff' section of ASADA's register.

He has also received notification that he appears on the register and that ASADA has written to both codes recommending their preferred punishment of a life ban.

It's understood the AFL will wait until the Federal Court verdict of Essendon's case is handed down, before it convenes a hearing into ASADA's recommendations on Dank.

The NRL declined to give any information on Wednesday night as to when it will deal with the sports scientist, offering "no comment" in response to The Daily Telegraph's inquiries.
