“It is unacceptable regardless of the context of the circumstances of any matters that might have occurred of a private nature,” Abdo said. “It is unacceptable for someone to speak like that and therefore we have taken the action we have.
“Leaders need to set the standard in the game. The comments are completely unacceptable from any individual, let alone an official of such experience and standing.” “He is unable to contact individuals or the team in relation to training or preparation for the game,” Abdo said. “He won’t be permitted to attend the Canberra Raiders’ facility or the match on Sunday.
"We have an Integrity Unit, we have a salary cap team, and I am confident that everyone understands the seriousness of this.”
