NRL boss Todd Greenberg has stepped down, effective immediately, as National Rugby League chief executive. Mr Greenberg's decision came on Monday afternoon following mounting pressure in the fallout of the coronavirus pandemic and its effects on the game in Australia. The 2020 season had been suspended following the completion of round 2 matches in March in a bid to stem the spread of the deadly disease. Mr Greenberg had been widely scrutinised for the financial situation in which the NRL was placed, with critics saying more funding should have been put aside for unexpected situations. It comes as the NRL Commission has proposed a May 28 date to restart the season. Image: Getty
