New to Kayo?“It was a tough and honest conversation.
However, Abdo pointed out that in previous similar cases, neither Brandon Smith nor Toby Rudolf had been sanctioned for controversial comments made during live interviews, and that meeting with Mitchell was a more productive approach than a fine. “There’ve been examples since I’ve been the CEO where we try and work with the players, remind them of their obligations and their responsibilities, and help them develop not only their own brand but the brand of the club they represent and the brand of the sport they represent.
