A lawyer change and the unavailability of some video footage for NRL perusal will result in a delay to a decision on the playing future of Curtis Scott.

Scott sensationally split with outspoken lawyer Danny Eid just as NRL CEO Todd Greenberg viewed some of the footage of an incident that will determine whether he will be allowed to resume his football career.

The Raiders recruit, who has yet to make his debut for his new club after switching from Melbourne, has pleaded not guilty to six charges relating to an incident on the Australia Day weekend. Greenberg watched some of the footage captured of the incident after the police consented to its review, although he won’t make a call until he witnesses additional video evidence.

In a further twist in Scott’s case, the former Melbourne centre is set to be represented by Sam Macedone after splitting with Eid. The shock switch adds further intrigue to the only case before the NRL’s integrity unit that leaves a player’s immediate future in limbo.
