More players likely implicated in cocaine scandal (+AUDIO)

With the new NRL season less than a week away, rugby league administrators are bracing for the fallout from one of the biggest ever scandals to hit the sport.

Former Kangaroos star Karmichael Hunt has been arrested for supplying cocaine last year, and it's understood up to 30 top players may be also involved.

AUDIO: Tony 'The Mole' Adams gives his take on the scandal with Tony Veitch.

Rugby League Week's Tony Adams says some of the names under suspicion could be incredibly damaging.

"I keep hearing a couple of names of highly prominent players, and also one former player who player who played Origin for Queensland - you'll be shocked when that name comes out."

Tony Adams says the damage that this could do to the already struggling Gold Coast Titans could be huge.
