The identities of Canterbury players or staff who shouted obscene comments during the Mad Monday celebrations will remain secret after the ARLC handed down its investigation findings on Tuesday.
The only “punishment” handed down by the ARLC involves the club paying a $30,000 contribution to a nominated charity, while the Bulldogs will deal with those involved in-house.
In a statement issued by the ARLC, Bulldogs chief executive Todd Greenberg said he was aware of who had made every comment, but declined to name them.
The findings, based on the Bulldogs’ internal report, video evidence and an independent security report also concluded “some of the comments reported by the media were incorrectly recounted and should not, on the evidence since provided, be construed as having been directed to the reporters”.
It was also found that some players and their guests were found to be interacting with media representatives “in a matter that could be seen as threatening”.
