The 32-year-old is accused of an ‘aggressive’ act towards police in a licensed premises….
The 32-year-old NRL player has been charged following an alleged aggressive altercation with police at a licensed premises in the early hours of the morning. According to reports, authorities were called to the venue after staff raised concerns about the individual’s behaviour. Upon arrival, officers were met with what they described as “aggressive and obstructive” conduct.
Witnesses claim the player appeared visibly agitated and ignored repeated instructions to calm down. He was eventually restrained and removed from the premises, with one officer reportedly sustaining minor injuries during the incident.
The NRL and the player’s club have been informed of the matter. In a brief statement, the club said it was aware of the situation and would cooperate fully with the investigation. The NRL Integrity Unit is also monitoring developments.
The player, who cannot be named for legal reasons, is due to appear in court later this month. His legal team has yet to comment. The incident has sparked renewed scrutiny of off-field behaviour among professional athletes, with calls for greater accountability and support structures.
