Brisbane Broncos star Selwyn Cobbo caught in off-field drama

Brisbane Broncos have been hit by the news that one of their young stars has been in off-field bother.

The Queensland club have already had their fair share of off-field drama in 2022, with Payne Haas’ and Albert Kelly’s infamous ‘shoe’ video circling earlier this year.

And, now it appears as though youngster Selwyn Cobbo – who scored two tries in a devastating display against the South Sydney Rabbitohs at the weekend – has been caught in a compromising position.

Cobbo was charged with driving an unregistered and uninsured vehicle while on a suspended licence.

The teenager has been disqualified from driving for six months and fined $700 with no conviction recorded after appearing in Nanango court on Monday on road offences.

The Broncos informed the NRL integrity unit of the offence when it occurred a two weeks ago.

Cobbo took full responsibility for the misdemeanour, telling theĀ Daily Telegraph:

I know Iā€™ve done the wrong thing and I take full responsibility for that mistake,ā€ Cobbo said.

ā€œIā€™ll learn from this and I will strive to make better choices in the future.ā€

Broncos CEO Dave Donaghy said: ā€œSelwyn has acknowledged to the club that he made an error in judgement on this occasion.

ā€œSelwyn understands he will need to make better decisions in the future, particularly when it comes to complying with road safety. We will continue to support Selwyn off-field, as well as on it.

ā€œThe club acknowledges the importance of road safety and respecting road laws, as does Selwyn.ā€
