Drunken incident

Terepo avoids having NRL contract torn up

The Tonga international was expected to have his Eels contract torn up after his alleged verbal abuse of flight attendants on a flight from Tonga to New Zealand that resulted in police being called.

No charges were laid, however, it came two years after he was fined $15,000 for failing to alert the club about a careless driving charge in New Zealand.

The 27-year-old has been forced to undergo an alcohol management plan.

Given his two-match ban has been backdated, he will be available for selection in Friday's NRL match against the Sydney Roosters.
