Molo’s lawyers reportedly told the court they were disputing some of the details of the incident, but Molo pleaded guilty to the offence.
The 28-year-old forward has been ordered not to approach the woman for at least 12 hours after drinking alcohol or taking illicit drugs.
The guilty plea may see him stood down under the NRL’ no-fault stand-down policy as can happen at the discretion of the CEO with any charges involving women or children.
