Latrell Mitchell and Jack Wighton have apologised for “embarrassing” their clubs after the NRL players were arrested and charged for allegedly fighting outside a Canberra nightclub early on Sunday morning.
South Sydney Rabbitohs fullback Mitchell and Canberra Raiders five-eighth Wighton issued a joint statement on Monday as the pair departed for All Stars camp in New Zealand, addressing the “harmless” scuffle at Wighton’s 30th birthday celebrations at the weekend.
