The Highlanders released a statement today about an incident involving a group of players in Queenstown over the weekend. Highlanders chief executive Roger Clark said no Highlanders had broken anything and no-one from the team would be charged by police. Glebe Apartment management then received multiple complaints about the noise coming from the apartment and police were called. He reiterated that players had to be Highlanders all the time and the behaviour was well below what was expected as a team or together in downtime. The Highlanders had contacted the Glebe Apartments management and apologised for the behaviour.
