Roosters prop Spencer Leniu has entered a guilty plea to his contrary conduct charge.
The 23-year-old was sent straight to the judiciary for comments he made to Broncos playmaker Ezra Mam during Sunday’s NRL Vegas opener.
“I want to apologise to Ezra and his family for using the word I did and I am sincerely sorry to cause him such distress,” Leniu said in a statement.
“I’ve put my hand up and want to take ownership of this. I said the word but I didn’t mean it in a racist way. Anyone who knows me knows that’s not who I am.”
The Samoan International will still have to face the judiciary to determine his penalty.
