PRIME Minister Julia Gillard says she doesn't want to play politics with the doping crisis that has engulfed Australian sport.

Ms Gillard, who is the number one ticket holder at AFL club Western Bulldogs, says understands what it's like to care passionately about a club.

"For fans of some clubs that have been out there publicly dealing with this issue, it's been very difficult days indeed," she told parliament on Wednesday.

The opposition asked Ms Gillard if she still stood by statements from Home Affairs Minister Jason Clare that doping was widespread in sport.

She replied that there was nothing before her to suggest that the statements from the Australian Crime Commission (ACC) weren't correct.

"I actually don't think that Australians want to see us playing politics about sport in this parliament and particularly not at this time," Ms Gillard said.

The ACC in February said it uncovered a doping scandal across numerous sports, chiefly in the nation's two most popular football codes.

Police, the Australian Sports Anti-Doping Authority (ASADA), the AFL and NRL have launched their own investigations amid the ACC findings.
