NSW Police have arrested and charged NRL player Tyrone May over the Penrith sex tapes scandal.

It comes after Monday’s revelation that Penrith were aware of another lewd video circulating on social media that involved two other Panthers players, including one first-grader.

Gordie’s Big Issue With Mitchell-Wighton Reaction

Triple M’s and Broncos legend Gorden Tallis says he believes the weekend’s drama between NRL stars Jack Wighton and Latrell Mitchell is likely nothing more than a storm in a teacup.

Speaking on LiSTNR’s Footy Talk League podcast, Tallis questioned whether the general public would even be hearing about the matter if not for the pair’s high-profile status in the game.

“It sounds like [a storm in a teacup], and I haven’t seen the footage,” Tallis said on Footy Talk League.

“Two guys having a wrestle. If their names weren’t Jack Wighton and Latrell Mitchell, would we be hearing about it, and would the police have arrested them? That’s the only question that I ask.

“Were punches thrown, was there anyone hurt in the situation? I’d say no, and just two mates – probably one [drink] too many. Started a push and shove and got in a wrestle.”

The pair were arrested on Saturday night following a scuffle outside a Canberra nightclub, while celebrating the Raiders Wighton’s 30th birthday. They will front the ACT Magistrates Court on February 22.

Mitchell is also accused of resisting arrest.

On Monday, they issued a joint statement pronouncing the “wrestle” to be “harmless.”

“We cannot comment on the charges that are currently before the Court for legal reasons,” the pair stated in a statement.

“However, we wanted to express regret for putting our Clubs and the NRL in such a position over the weekend.”

“We went to celebrate Jack’s 30th birthday with family and friends.” While everyone had a nice time, we recognize that our wrestle, as innocuous as we thought it was, was a poor choice and may have looked bad.
