Richmond have opted against banishing Noah Balta from pre-season training following his assault charge last week, 7NEWS chief football reporter Mitch Cleary has revealed. The AFL premiership player handed himself into NSW Police following an alleged incident that led to another man being taken to hospital for a cut to his head. Balta was charged and given conditional bail, to appear before Corowa Local Court on January 30 — right in the middle of the Tigers’ pre-season program.
“While he is permitted back the Tigers will work through any internal sanctions over the next 48 hours.” The AFL integrity unit will undergo its own enquiries after the court proceedings to determine if Balta should be made available for Round 1 in March. Richmond last week issued only a brief statement addressing the charge following Cleary’s exclusive report.
