The Parramatta Eels have suspended forward Tony Williams for the first two rounds of the season following his court appearance today for a drink-driving incident.

Read the statement below:

Parramatta National Rugby League Club Pty Limited player Tony Williams appeared in court today regarding a drink-driving incident. The legal process has been completed and Tony has been fined $1,000 and given a one-year driving suspension.

Following discussions with the NRL Integrity Unit, and taking into consideration that Tony has undertaken a safe driving course, the Club has decided to suspend Tony for rounds 1 and 2 of the 2018 NRL Telstra Premiership.

The Club views drink driving as an extremely serious offence and we have reiterated to Tony that this behaviour is unacceptable.

  • LOL only 2 rounds for putting your 3 children, your wife and other innocent families lives at risk, that will do me.

    How many rounds did Kenny get for squirting water on his mrs?

    Our club has a hide to run 'family' days and Bernie is a clown, hes already proven that with the new strip....

    • Not good enough ...

      we had the opportunity to show it doesn't sit with our values etc but didn't 

  • I think the $1000 fine 12 months behaviour bond and missing 2 rounds Is sufficient.

  • A very sad day for the mighty blue and gold, I did have faith not now
  • What a dumba*se.Explains why he still a P-plater at his age.Total moron.

  • Tapped on the arse with a feather duster. Was he seriously in NRL contention for two weeks. Fuck me sideways. Hopefully made to do meaningful community service.
    • He is. Sicko
  • Maybe he should be made to watch police DUI fatalities and how it's affected people lives. Might knock some sense into him.

  • Are you taking the piss Grunta?
  • I couldn't understand why he was recruited back to Parramatta. Like Jarryd Hayne,I didn't want either of them back but the powers that be,saw otherwise. Just when we hope that all the problems with the players have settled down and the media will finally leave us alone,along comes this dill to keep us in the limelight. Good on you Tony,thanks for nothing.
