Warriors apologise after Montoya's homophobic slur

From Checkpoint, 6:11 pm on 12 April 2022

The Warriors are defending their response to a homophobic slur made by outside back Marcelo Montoya last Friday's rugby league match in Queensland. 

Montoya will front the NRL judiciary tonight, facing a charge of 'Contrary Conduct', after microphones picked up the comment he made to a Cowboys player.

The Warriors issued a statement and an apology on Sunday - but some are criticising the response as tardy. Clay Wilson reports.
