AFL agent Nixon denies affair with teen at centre of scandal

AUSTRALIAN RULES agent Ricky Nixon’s career is in jeopardy after yesterday he admitted to inappropriate dealing with a teenage girl at the centre of an AFL sex scandal.

Nixon, who represents Kerry’s Tommy Walsh, told Melbourne newspaper the Herald Sun that he had been in the girl’s hotel room but denied any further involvement, despite her claims to the contrary.

“In hindsight my dealings with this girl were inappropriate and I regret them,” he told the newspaper. “I won’t be seeing her again.”
