Indigenous coach says NRL club didn't inform player of selection, sparking backlash from opposing coach.
Indigenous All Stars coach Ronald Griffiths claims at least one NRL club failed to tell a player they were wanted for the pre-season representative fixture.
His comments to The Sydney Morning Herald follow Maori men's coach Adam Blair calling out Canberra specifically for allegedly not letting a number of players compete in last weekend's event in western Sydney.
The Blair comments elicited a furious retort from Raiders coach Ricky Stuart, who called them "childish" and "ridiculous".
