[edit] Controversy

On February 17, 2007, just prior to the 2007 NRL season, Frank and his brother Tom Pritchard were involved in an incident during the night time in the Liverpool area. His brother reportedly received four knife wounds, including one to the pulmonary artery. Frank was also injured after being stabbed in the hand which led to him having an operation the afternoon after the attack.^[1]
