Taipans Head Coach Adam Forde has issued the following statement:
I would like to acknowledge the NBL Integrity Unit and the Game Review Panel that conducted a thorough investigation. They went to considerable effort to obtain and examine CCTV video, audio and statements.
Despite all the public speculation, I remained silent during this investigation as I felt this was the best course of action.
It has been difficult to remain quiet given all the accusations, but I have been comfortable knowing that once footage and audio was obtained, I would be cleared of any wrongdoing.
The unedited and original CCTV footage and audio shows I was outside our team’s changeroom and proves I did not start the verbal conversation or instigate any physical exchange.
I would like to thank the Cairns Taipans for their support during this process, the NBL and the Cairns community.
