Shawn Blore Statement

Melbourne Storm player Shawn Blore appeared at the Downing Centre Local Court today, where he pleaded guilty to common assault.

The matter relates to an incident that occurred in Sydney in July 2024.

The Club notified the NRL Integrity Unit at the time of the incident, and Blore fully cooperated with NSW Police throughout their investigation.

Blore received a six-month good behaviour bond, with no conviction.

Blore and Storm are grateful for the way the Court dealt with this matter and accept the sentence.

Blore is genuinely remorseful for his involvement in this incident.

Melbourne Storm will not be making any further comment on this matter.
