NRL implement policy change

NRL CEO, Todd Greenberg said the criminal charges against de Belin will fall within the parameters for the new no-fault stand-down.“I stress that the NRL is making no judgement on the guilt or innocence of the player,” Mr Greenberg said.“But we have to be in a position to take action when allegations are so serious that it would damage the reputation of the game if that player was allowed to take the field.Mr Greenberg said he expected to use the change in policy sparingly.

Where it is used, the game will continue to support players, their families and others requiring support, while cases are finalised in the courts.“And that is what we will do with a change of policy in place."

NO fault ha ha you shown guilt by your action , you even affected him having a fair trial

everyone is innocent until proven guilty. However when you have such a high profile career there is so much at risk for you and your team when you have such serious chargers laid against you. If his found innocent then he will resume playing again. I say fair call.

Guilty before proven innocent, why even bother having trials to access their guilt if you’re gonna treat them as criminals without knowing the facts. AFL doesn’t do this nonsense at all.

Yeah but, what happens if he doesn’t play for Parramatta?

👏👏👏 Finally

Todd_Greenberg if found innocent are you happy to pay damages in the following law suit? Grand final week and the 2 best players in team 1 get accused of rape in order to influence the game by a supporter of team 2 or someone betting on the match. Is this not open to corruption.

So stand down walker as well. This rule is ridiculous.

This policy can not work! Just get a bogus claim in before the finals.

Paying a guilty man's price before being convicted. Men face perilous times now, in all walks of life.

I don’t have a problem with the new rule but retrospective I have an issue with

Here are the figures that should be sending shock waves through NRLTV ratings from the first game of season send a clear warning to ARLC chairman Peter Beattie that it’s time to stop talking and do something about the carnage. This is what happens when you give one of Australia's most successful politicians a real job to do. Hopeless, the lot of them. A lot of people were turned off by the indigenous team snubbing the Australian Anthem. Country comes first. I enjoyed watching the game, but I doubt it will ever be played again! The concept of the NRL all stars game has never appealed to me.Add the whole protest of anti Australia during the game just adds to my dislike of the game.
