Broncos forward Joe Ofahengaue has been charged by police for his driving infringement over the weekend, according to Fox Sports.
The Courier Mail reported that he was charged by police on Saturday night after allegedly being found asleep behind the wheel of his parked car following a house party in Brane's south-west.
The 24-year old was not accused of drink driving but received a minor traffic infringement.
The Broncos released a statement on the matter, saying the club is "aware of a motor vehicle-related offence involving forward Joe Ofahengaue.
“The NRL’s Integrity Unit was immediately informed of the incident and the Broncos are working with authorities on the matter.”
The Broncos said they would add no further comments during the legal process.
Nothing to see here.
1. Plays for Broncos
2. Plays for QLD
The Broncos are the kings of the coverup.
When it was first reported, he had blown at .08 level.
Now it’s a “driving infringement” and no mention of being above the limit.
Lift Sweep Repeat! 🧹🧹🧹🧹🧹🧹
Don’t believe everything you read in print and social media, they have been proven wrong in the past. If he was just asleep in his car then good on him for realising he shouldn’t drive, BUT.. if he blew .08 then he’s in big trouble. We will never know the whole truth so don’t stress about it, more important things in life.
100% Chalky. Remember, the Qld police booked a guy for doing 61kph in a 60 zone (I kid you not, it was just after Campbell Newman won the election) and recently booked a guy who took a sip out of his water bottle (why then do the design rules allow drink container holders?). One thing I’ll say about Qld Highway Patrol Officers (and Highway Patrol in general), is they’ll never heart surgery.
“need” heart surgery
Don’t get me wrong, I’m a Broncos fan. I’m just impressed how quickly they can get things under the rug.
Souths and Brisbane are the masters of sweeping it under the carpet. Bennett knows the routines.
Souths & Broncos might have a big broom but the Roosters have a Dyson!
Kev. You can’t sweep anything under a rug with a Dyson. Once the dust is sucked up its in full view through the plastic see through container. Full transparency mate.
Maybe the eels should try one!
This is crap , how many times have you gone to a party and went to your car to sleep, this is really clutching at straws, if what i read is true then god help us, should have no case to answer
Penso. It depends how far he drove before he fell asleep!
No we are good Woody. We are fully transparent now unlike your Roosters.
The only difference between our cheating and yours is we got caught.
One day somone will become disgruntled and roll over on your Roosters. I just hope uncle Nick is still there so people can see how big a crook he really is.
