I understand the sentiment, but gee that is a slippery slope when you start banning media. Ultimately, the responsibility is on us, the consumer. And unfortunately, us as the consumer have not evolved and we click on, read and share every clickbait article.
This is the crux of the issue, no one knows if he does have a right to walk out or not. There's a lot of simplified views on the issue on this forum and generally throughout social media - One would assume there is a intersection between the Club and NRL's legislated obligations for a safe workplace and what is considered a safe workplace in the terms of professional sport. Molo is allegedly claiming a workplace injury. It was only a matter of time until something like this was tested and of course, the only Club it was going to occur at was the Dragons...
I’d go one further and say it’s impossible to ban media from reporting. I think what you can do though as an organisation is make statements to the media explaining there is a player welfare issue which requires medical support and request the media show some compassion and restraint. Basically show some leadership here.
