If he’d done the crime, he needs to do the time, but this contradicts itself

Seems more than just game days he’s suspended

The suspension prohibits Agar from performing any duties as assistant coach of the Warriors on the days the matches are scheduled,” a statement from the NRL read.

“Further, Agar is prohibited from travelling to any away match scheduled for the Warriors during the period of suspension.”


If it was a Sydney club, that’s potentially ONE day only, but for the Warriors you’re looking at 4-5 days. We play our next 2 of the 3 games AWAY.

I guess some people really CAN'T handle the Vegas.

Wonder how Cameron George is going to handle being lied to by Agar.

Does Agar report to Cameron George or Andrew Webster?
Will George Handle this to keep Webster focused on winning ?

What do you think he said ?
I agree there are two sides to every story
I’m keen to hear his before the hanging
We know freelance journalist can be annoying leeches sometimes. Anything for a story. A push and shove where he grabs him by the collar can be bent to say he grabbed him by the throat. I fail to believe this journalist is just an innocent victim. Cry me a river and let’s not be so quick to judge

I'd say Agar and the bloke should settle it in a boxing match. Donate the proceeds to the club

There was a witness and CCTV footage and now the NRL gives him a fine and suspension. When Agar talked to Cameron George he did nothing. Seems someone's side was wrong but Agar is the one being punished. As for what to what the "leech" journalist said what do you think he said? I'm keen to hear this before the hanging.....

I trust the NRL and their judiciary as much as I trust the refs. Multiple cameras and replays yet they still get it wrong on game day so not about to take cctv or a witness statement as a shut and close case.

Or maybe, never let the truth stand in the way of a good story?

All detracts from what our purpose is though, we don't need this sideshow

Could not agree more. Reguardless of what some journalist has said, you're representing the club and have a job to do that you should take seriously.

 

[CWC]

We need TMO for this

Was there any contact to the jugular and any mitigating factors (ie reporter falling after writing junk about the defendant)

Big fan of situational violence here, but what Agar did was weak. He let himself get baited by a journo, in public, during a game we are losing. All while he’s an assistant coach.

And/or was said journalist sober at the time of his report?

It’s not hard to get baited if the right words are used that first cross the line

Of course. Punching a wall or a person is easy.
