"A 22-year-old man,who was filmed in the videos,was spoken to by police. No offence relating to him has been detected;however,he was issued a warning regarding social distancing."

It came after NSW Deputy Premier John Barilaro launched a scathing attack on Cleary,saying the NRL should suspend him for the season.

Barilaro,who has been a major supporter of the league's ambitious plans to resume its competition in late May,said the consequences for the halfback's actions should be severe.

"There's been a lot of people that don't believe the NRL should return,and I've been a big advocate for its return,"Barilaro told Sky News.

"I've been working with the NRL and I've put my own name against it. We've put in place the protocols and measures that deliver the NRL a start again in May.

"The issue with Cleary is that he has lied and said it was only a small interaction. But,in the end,the TikTok social media platform shows it was more than that."
