NRL Stands Down Rabbitohs’ Tyrone Munro Under No-Fault Policy After Police Charges
Munro faces assault and stalking charges triggering the NRL's no-fault stand-down policy, barring him from competition amid ongoing legal proceedings.
- On Oct 28, 2025 the National Rugby League stood down South Sydney winger Tyrone Munro under its no-fault stand-down policy, barring him from competition while legal proceedings continue.
- NSW Police charged Munro earlier this month with assault occasioning actual bodily harm, common assault and stalking or intimidation, with those charges filed on October 14, 2025.
- Munro is due to face Burwood Local Court on Thursday, and his lawyer Elias Tabchouri indicated he will plead not guilty, with 19 NRL appearances to date.
- He faces being sidelined for at least the start of next season after the stand-down, with the NRL stating `The decision should in no way be interpreted as a view on the innocence or guilt of the player.`
- The no-fault stand-down rule, introduced in 2019, covers offences with a maximum jail term of 11 years and can be applied at the NRL CEO Andrew Abdo's discretion in high-profile cases.
