"The New South Wales Supreme Court has dismissed defamation action brought by a Sydney man against former rugby league international Ian Roberts.
Mr Roberts told Sydney's Glebe Coroner's Court in May that Frederick George Rix had sexually assaulted him when he was 15-years-old.
Mr Rix lodged a statement of claim with the Supreme Court asking for $10 million in damages for defamation.
Last month the court struck out his claim but gave Mr Rix liberty to file an amended statement of claim.
Mr Rix has today told the court he had not done that and the court dismissed the action."
