Brett Kimmorley stirred a hornets nest in the nation’s capital last week when the former Raiders assistant coach told Fox Sports NRL Market Watch podcast teenage star Brenko Lee was “unhappy” and wanted out.
With the Bulldogs reportedly chasing the 19-year-old Junior Kangaroo centre, Kimmorley, who is a regular on the podcast said: “I spoke to Brenko about four weeks ago when I was in Canberra."
“He had confirmed to me that he asked for a release before June 30 but was knocked back. He’s contracted to the Raiders next year. It’ll be interesting to see if Ricky (Stuart) releases him.”
“Rick and the coaching staff rate Brenko highly and that is why we are not letting him go," Canberra boss Don Furner fired back.
“And I think it is inappropriate that (Kimmorley) would be talking to our players and then going out there and telling everybody about it.”
