Newcastle half and former teammate of Dylan Napa, Mitchell Pearce, says he has heard the stories about more possible incriminating videos of Napa that may include himself.

Speaking on Wednesday, Pearce just wanted his new club and its players to take more accountability in the future.

“It’s hard not to hear the rumours, but if I listened to every rumour, I’d hate myself, I reckon,” he said.

“I’ve really felt for Dylan through the whole situation but like I touched on before, from all these things that have arose, I think each club has taken accountability and everyone’s been working as hard as they can on their behaviour moving forward.”

Pearce will line up alongside Kalyn Ponga for a trial against St George Illawarra at Kogarah this weekend.
