Newly appointed Newcastle Knights Director of Football Peter Parr has admitted star fullback Kalyn Ponga being asked to leave a toilet cubicle with teammate Kurt Mann ‘isn’t a good look’.
Parr broke his silence on the matter on Tuesday morning and confirmed the incident from a Newcastle pub on Saturday night is being investigated by the NRL Integrity Unit.
He stressed it was important the club allow the process to be completed before handing down any potential punishments to the two players.
Ponga is the club’s co-captain and comfortably the highest-paid player.

‘It is not a good look, but all the facts are not established,’ Parr said.
‘We will co-operate with the NRL Integrity Unit and let the process run its course.’
In a further example of the club’s poor culture, Bradman Best and Enari Tuala have been dropped to NSW Cup this weekend.
The pair were late to the team bus on Sunday morning after they were trounced 28-10 by the Brisbane Broncos at Suncorp Stadium on Saturday.
