Newcastle CEO Philip Gardner released the following statement.

The Newcastle Knights are aware of a low-level incident involving Mason Lino over the weekend.

This has prompted the Knights to review and work collaboratively with the playing group to identify methods to best prepare for the remainder of the season including the avoidance of venues with previous issues.

The Club is also working with the players to ensure they meet club and community standards.
