Well Joel Tomkins’ statement strongly suggests it was him who made the “arrangement” for the video to be deleted:
“Worried about what might happen next, and as a gesture of my genuine remorse, an agreement was reached to delete the video.“

That’s not remorse, Joel, that’s a bribe.

They don't know the difference in Wigan.

Interesting to hear one of the staff say to Sam Tomkins “take your mate out”. Amongst the condemnation, there have been a few comments along the lines of “they only filmed them because they are rugby players”. As the bar staff didn’t know they were brothers, it seems unlikely they knew who they were at all.

Think he’s got to go. He physically intimidated the member of staff at the door by putting his face into her’s and then strikes out at the member of staff who is filming (as she is entitled to).

I hope the RFL are able to bring charges too.

RFL bring charges. Dream on dude, they won't do anything just like they stayed silent on the Albert Kelly affair.

Is there another sport where the governing body sits back and does nothing when incidents like this happen?

Should be a police matter, common assault and public order offence.

You maybe right in principle but in reality they would have most probably just got a caution and it would be a waste of taxpayers money

Is there anything in the RFL's operational rules that allow them to take action?

The players are ultimately employees of the clubs so in the first instance it is up to the clubs to address any breaches of discipline. This isn't the NFL where the players are effectively centrally contracted.

Once again the game is dragged through the mud jeez, it's even got a half hour slot on The Wright Stuff!

Vision zero/broken windows. You do nothing for the small stuff and folk/others go on to bigger/worse things because they think they can go about doing whatever they like knowing the authorities won't do beggar all.
You only need to look at how motorists kill and maim with virtual impunity and get off scot-free for those actions as an example of how things can slide when you ignore matters.

Are the players not employees of the club's in the NRL. Are the players not employees of the club's in soccer also.

The difference is that the NRL and the individual football organisations would not sit back and do absolutely nothing if an incident like this or tomkins bros happened.

There would be some reaction even though it's the clubs who would ultimately punish the players.
