NRL’s top referee surfaces trackside despite $400k gambling controversy
The NRL’s top referee Ashley Klein has continued to officiate the code’s biggest games, despite having had a gambling problem that has cost him hundreds of thousands of dollars.
But now it would seem that not even the backlash to revelations of Klein’s $400,000 gambling losses has been enough to keep him away from the track.
On Saturday, Klein went along to Royal Randwick Racecourse for what the Australian Turf Club branded “Missile Stakes Day”, the first day on the NSW racing calendar. Klein was accompanied trackside by his partner, Elly Howse, CBD hears, but was not seen placing any bets.

Why Ricky Stuart had every right to publicly blast Corey Horsburgh
Ricky Stuart was well within his rights to give Corey Horsburgh both barrels at Sunday’s press conference.
Forget the nonsense about the Canberra coach “gaslighting” his forward – who had been sin-binned for striking Dane Gagai in the closing stages of Canberra’s 30-24 loss to Newcastle, which ended their slim finals hopes – as claimed by Corey Parker on SEN radio. Forget the rubbish about how Stuart should have kept his thoughts to himself, or that any reprimand should have taken place behind closed doors.
For what it’s worth, Stuart did blast Horsburgh in the sheds straight after full-time. Horsburgh did not appreciate it, and hit back.
