 According to Iain Payten in The Courier Mail, Patston had agreed to not report the texts to ARU management to give Beale second chance, but that "in the presence of three other Wallabies, Patston spoke to Beale in a Brisbane hotel before the first Test against France and told him she would reveal the contents of the texts if another incident arose".Beale's manager alleged McKenzie knew about these texts back in June, and failed to do anything about it, which McKenzie denied.On 13 October, the texts between Beale and Patston were revealed, with Patston confirming that McKenzie did not know about them in June.
