NRL: Broncos coach Ezra Mam has refused to answer more questions on the Ezra Mam incident.
Broncos coach Kevin Walters has snapped at reporters after being quizzed on Ezra Mam’s response to Spencer Leniu’s suspension.
Roosters prop Leniu was hit with an eight-week ban for calling Mam a “monkey” when the sides clashed in Las Vegas in Round 1. Leniu denied using the slur in a racial way but the judiciary rejected that and handed down the historic suspension, which some greats of the game thought was too short. The only place to watch every game of every round LIVE with no ad-breaks during play is Fox League, available on Kayo. New to Kayo?Asked how Mam was feeling in the aftermath, the fourth-year coach was short in response.Walters was pressed on how Mam had been training since the incident and he snapped back: “Well you watch training, what did you think?”But Walters wasn’t budging as his side chases their first win of the season when they host the Rabbitohs on Thursday night.
“We put it to bed at the end of last week when it was handed over to the NRL,” Walters said.“It’s nice to get back to Suncorp, especially for our fans, being away for the first period of the season in Vegas.
