The Sydney Morning Herald, says “that upon arrival, Andrew [Abdo] was accompanied by [an NRL employee] … this was disappointing given [the employee] was not invited, nor had Andrew given any forewarning that [the employee] would be attending.”

“Nevertheless, RLPA management , allowed to sit in on Andrew’s discussion out of respect for [their] role ... To ensure an open and honest environment for Andrew and the players, no filming or recording of this session was permitted and no media representatives were present. “What then followed is nothing short of illegal which, on its face, seriously calls into question the integrity of the NRL, its executive and its culture. I am instructed that a player , raised concerns with RLPA staff that was covertly recording the session on [their] phone. The player raised the concern based on their understanding that attendees were not permitted to record these discussions.“An RLPA staff member queried with as to whether [they were] recording, which denied .

“Once outside, admitted to recording the conversation and acknowledged it was inappropriate for [them] to be doing so. Further, stated that [they] had been acting under the instruction of another NRL executive.
