The AFL says it is aware of only two specific cases where players or clubs may have breached the league's WADA code.
Minister for Home Affairs Jason Clare admits that players have come forward in relation to doping, following the ACC's damaging report.

GEELONG has told its fans the club's "robust" sports science processes will stand up to any examination.
The Cats are seething that they have been tarnished by association given Essendon's suspended high-performance manager Dean Robinson worked at the club during its premiership wins in 2007 and 2009.
A letter from president Colin Carter and chief executive Brian Cook was sent to members yesterday addressing the drug scandal that has rocked Australian sport.
"Our club has been drawn into the public discussion because one of our past employees is being mentioned and this is prompting questions about how we have conducted ourselves in recent years," it read.
"Let me assure you that we have nothing to hide.
"Our processes are robust and we are confident that they stand up to any examination.
"However, we know that this will not be enough for some people who will doubt the legitimacy of the game and are disillusioned.
"And so we believe it is important the story of a club that did everything by the book and achieved great success through hard work, professionalism, team work, unity and commitment should be celebrated. We owe that to everyone who contributed."
The Cats have welcomed the widening of the AFL and Australian Sports Anti-Doping Authority investigation with a forensic team set to look over the club's procedures in coming days.
Several other clubs will also be looked at, including Gold Coast where Robinson worked after leaving the Cats in 2010.
"This will take some time, as it should, and it needs to be thorough to ensure that the integrity of our club is confirmed," the Geelong statement read.
"We believe our protocols are best practice and that is why we are confident in our position. We know these are difficult times for supporters.
"But we are confident that when the dust settles on this investigation, we will be seen as we have been in recent years - a successful club that goes about its business in the right way."
