Todd Greenberg has labelled Shane Flanagan ‘disrespectful’ after revealing the full extent of his attempts to defy his 2014 suspension. The Cronulla coach has been sensationally de-registered by the NRL for breaking strict rules by communicating with the club while suspended. The Sharks have also been fined $800,000 – half of which was suspended at the time over their supplements saga.
Towards the end of his suspension in September, Flanagan sent another email to the NRL unequivocally stating he had no involvement in retention during his ban. Asked to describe Flanagan’s behaviour during his suspension period, NRL chief executive Greenberg replied: “Disrespectful. “Fundamental to the rules of the game and the integrity of the game that we work in is people being honest and truthful “It cuts to the very core of the fabric of what the game’s rules stand for and we can’t sit around and watch that happen under the way the rules are governed.”
