SCG statement on crowd behavior

“Rugby Australia is disappointed with the reported incidents within the crowd at the Sydney Cricket Ground for the Third Test of the Wallabies’ series with England.
 
“The deplorable actions of the alleged intruder that made his way to the roof of the grandstand were disgraceful and dangerous.
 
“This individual has been issued with a life ban from Rugby Australia events – and we will continue to support the authorities in their handling of the matter.
 
“The offensive remarks made by spectators in the Members’ areas towards England staff were unacceptable – and not representative of the values of Rugby.
 
“We have a zero-tolerance policy for inappropriate behaviour, and we are working with Venues NSW on appropriate sanctions for these individuals.
 
“Rugby prides itself on values of respect and integrity – as seen in the players of both teams after the final whistle of a hard-fought series at the SCG on Saturday night.
 
“It is our expectation that spectators adhere to these values of respect and integrity when attending Rugby matches – and, we would hope, in society in general.
 
“Please, cheer for your team with all that you have – but please, always show respect for others"
