The threat of heftier sanctions from the World Anti-Doping Agency has prompted key figures in the Lachie Whitfield saga to accept bans for the 2017 season.News Corp and Fox Sports have reported the young Greater Western Sydney midfielder will be handed a six-month ban for avoiding a drugs test last May.The two ex-Giants staff members involved in the cover-up - Graeme Allan and Craig Lambert - are also set for 12-month bans under the AFL-imposed but ASADA-backed agreement.A final decision and announcement of the punishments, which could also include the loss of picks in his months national draft, could arrive this week after Tuesdays AFL Commission meeting.The suspensions will allow Whitfield, taken by the Giants with the No.1 pick in the 2012 draft, to resume his career as soon as round nine of the 2017 season.Allan, who is now Collingwoods football chief, and Lambert, who also left his role as a welfare officer with the Giants for a role with AFL rivals Brisbane, would resume their careers at seasons end.The punishment is a blow for the Magpies, which released respected backroom operator Neil Balme after appointing Allan and will need to find a short-term replacement for the 2016 season.The sentences are the result of negotiations between the parties and the AFL, under ASADA supervision, unlike the tortured, antagonistic process that lengthened Essendons supplements saga.Its understood that by accepting the sanctions, ASADA will effectively close the book on the inquiry, clearing Whitfield, Allan and Lambert of future investigations.It is unclear whether Whitfield will be able to train with the Giants during his ban.The 22-year-old stayed at Lamberts house for several nights in May last year, under Allans instructions, after alleged recreational drug use, so as to avoid a potential drug test.Any announcement on Tuesday would come alongside the Commissions decision on whether it will award Brownlow Medals to Sam Mitchell and Trent Cotchin.Mitchell and Cotchin polled 26 votes in the 2012 count, behind only Essendon midfielder Jobe Watson, who has given back his medal after his involvement in the clubs doping regime.

Nathan Lyon has urged cricket to avoid overkill in its scheduling of day-night Tests, as Australia prepare for their second of back-to-back pink-ball Tests this summer. The Australia-Pakistan game at the Gabba will be the fourth day-night Test ever played - the first was in Adelaide last summer and the other was between Pakistan and West Indies in Dubai this year.And a day-night Ashes Test next summer appears a certainty, with Cricket Australia expected to announce the 2017-18 schedule later this week. Although there will likely be one day-night Test in next years Ashes, Cricket Australia will push for two pink-ball Tests during other home summers, as has been the case this season.I dont think we need to overkill it, Lyon said. Its been a great success down in Adelaide but I think its quite important we leave Test cricket still a traditional game. We dont come in and overkill the pink ball.I know the games moving forward but Im a big believer in trying to keep Test match cricket as traditional as possible with the odd pink ball game. Id hate to see a five Test match Ashes series next year all pink ball.Clearly such an extreme is not on the horizon, but Cricket Australia have been thrilled by the success of the Adelaide day-night Tests against New Zealand last summer and South Africa this season.dddddddddddd This years Adelaide Test brought in 125,993 spectators across four days, a record attendance in Adelaide for a non-Ashes Test.The popularity of this weeks Gabba Test will be revealing, for Adelaide fans have embraced the day-night concept and many treated the Test as a social occasion. Cricket Australia is trying to create a sense of occasion around the Gabba day-nighter too, and a pool deck has even been installed in one section of the crowd.But the ongoing success of day-night Test cricket will rest in large part on the quality of the play: in Adelaide last year, runs were hard to come by on a green pitch, but this summer batsmen found more opportunity to get set for a big innings. The pink ball itself is also undergoing an evolution process, with the seam darkened this year to help with visibility.I do like the concept, Lyon said. I think the ball has improved from last year but I think there is still room for improvement there and I know Kookaburra is working hard on that.
