QUEENSLAND rugby league great Allan Langer has been fined and has lost his licence, but has escaped a conviction for drink-driving.
Langer, 43, faced the Brisbane Magistrates Court today where he pleaded guilty to a charge of drink-driving.

He was fined $1000 and disqualified from driving for eight months, but his lawyer successfully argued that Langer's coaching career would be seriously affected if a conviction was recorded.

After the hearing, Langer did not talk to the waiting media and was whisked away in a car.

He had a blood alcohol level of 0.156 - three times over the legal limit, the Brisbane Magistrates Court heard today.

It was alleged the former Brisbane Broncos halfback had a heavy drinking session at the Normanby Hotel, after the team crashed to a heavy loss to the Warriors.

The Broncos, who suspended Langer the day he was breath tested, said they would review his job with the club once he had appeared in court.

Langer's legal representatives succeeded in having his trial date brought forward from April 19 to allow him to have his position on the Broncos' coaching staff dealt with as soon as possible.

Police prosecutor Sgt Robin Rochfort argued that Langer deserved to have a conviction recorded against him.

But Mr Shields, for Langer, said it would have a long-term, detrimental impact on the League great's coaching career, which involved travel to New Zealand and other locations overseas.

The Magistrate Alan Taylor agreed, and thanked Langer for his early guilty plea which entitled him to "some discount".

"There is enough of a basis ... that some future detriment would be likely if a conviction were recorded," the magistrate told Langer.

Outside the court, Mr Shields said Langer's guilty plea was an apology for his behaviour.

"He has apologised by pleading guilty," the lawyer said.

"He's accepted he did the wrong thing."

sportingbet recieved 3 bets to win 10k and one to win 8k this morning within minutes of each other then bets were suspended.

So someone(or an associate) in the media or nrl have just made some good coin
