He had already made a formal apology to Mam, which wasn’t accepted by the Broncos star.

Leniu has now spoken of his regret in the hearing. 

“I am so sorry that I used that word I said to Ezra and I made him feel little. This game goes so fast and, in that split second I said a word I shouldn’t have,” he said.

“I didn’t know how much that word means to the Indigenous community.

“I thought it was one grow man sledging another grown man. In my circle that is so common and I didn’t know how much that word meant to Ezra and to all the Indigenous people in the game.

“I am glad he bought it up. I am really sorry to Ezra and his people.

“I don’t think we would have the game we do without Indigenous people.”
