Warriors assistant coach fined $10,000, suspended for 3 matches after grabbing journalist's throat at halftime.
The NRL recently issued a breach notice to Warriors assistant coach Richard Agar following an alleged incident during the club's Round 1 loss to the Canberra Raiders in Las Vegas.
The incident involved journalist John Davidson being grabbed by the throat and verbally abused by Agar as the coaching staff walked through the press box at halftime.
The NRL's breach notice includes a $10,000 fine (half suspended), a three-match suspension for Agar, and a mandate for him to undergo education and training.
Warriors CEO Cameron George expressed disappointment in the assistant coach's actions, stating, "We expect the staff to behave professionally at all times." George also confirmed that the club will work closely with the NRL to address the issue and support Agar through the process.
