It depicted a digitally altered image of Cleary, with his arm draped around a woman – not his current partner, Mary Fowler – apparently spruiking a company selling rugby league-themed car bonnet covers. “Way to go Blues! I knew this one had rizz! I’m taking this one home!” the flyer says suggestively in bold letters, before adding “This flyer was printed a week ago.” At no stage did the firm seek permission from Cleary or his management’s permission to use his likeness, nor has there been any attempt to compensate him. The image shows Cleary wearing a Blues jersey which appears to have been doctored, given the sponsors depicted aren’t those aligned with the team. The lawyer acting for Cleary, Daniel McGirr, said the incident would become a police matter.
