Brad Fittler, a true NRL legend, has urged the league to crack down on players who have spoken out about the Spencer Leniu racism controversy.
The Roosters recruit has found himself in hot water after allegedly using a racial slur against Brisbane five-eighth Ezra Mam.
Leniu's fate will be decided by the NRL judiciary, with reports suggesting he could face a hefty punishment.
In a bold move, Latrell Mitchell has called for Leniu to be banned for half the season if found guilty, showing unwavering support for standing up against racism.
Mitchell's powerful message on social media has sparked a wave of support, with many praising his courage in speaking out against discrimination.
As the NRL grapples with this sensitive issue, Fittler's call for sanctions underscores the importance of upholding the league's values and protecting its players from harmful behavior.
