I would start with rugby of both codes, steroid and HGH use are rife at amateur level and I have serious concerns at the top of the game.

Read the WADA banned list. Remember, taking something on the banned list is cheating, deliberate or not.
caffeine is not on the band list
There you go, not on the banned list, not doping or cheating.
Not hard to check is it?
It is if you are over a certain limit >12mg per litre of urine
No that particular reg has long gone. Caffeine is currently listed as a substance they monitor . But there is no upper limit on concentrations within the body.constantly reavalueating the situation and altering the perceived parameters accordingly0 -

Totally correct, and I think there has also been talk of taking it off the monitor list as well. For anyone that competes in races I would suggest reading the current WADA code to see what is and what is not allowed. Also I doubt there is many if any off the counter medicines on sale in the UK that contain banned substances these days. Prescription medicines should be checked however.0 -
