But a decision on whether he'll be available for round one has been further delayed.

Scott's lawyer Sam Macedone was set to meet with the NRL chief executive Todd Greenberg on Friday, but the NRL's annual general meeting has forced it to be postponed.

While it's yet to be rescheduled, Macedone thought it could be early next week - just 10 days before the start of the season.

Scott's set to appear in the local court at the Sydney Downing Centre on March 20 - a week after their round-one clash against the Gold Coast Titans at Canberra Stadium and the day before they face the New Zealand Warriors in Auckland.

He's facing seven charges, including two counts of allegedly assaulting a police officer.

Greenberg wants to see all the available footage from Scott's arrest, which happened after the former Melbourne Storm centre was celebrating Australia Day.

He's already seen the arresting officers' body-camera footage, but wants to see the CCTV footage from the area as well.

Greenberg's been busy travelling from one side of Australia to the other, as well as from one side of the world to the other.

First he went to Perth for the NRL Nines and then to England for the World Club Challenge.

Now the AGM has caused further delays in Greenberg deciding whether to enforce the NRL's no-fault, stand-down policy for Scott.

Macedone has continued to negotiate with the NSW police over the charges Scott's facing and he hoped "common sense" would prevail.

"I had hoped to meet with [Greenberg] today, but today's a very, very busy day at the NRL with the AGM and all that," he said.

"So that got called off and it didn't surprise me. So we're making tentative arrangements to meet sometime next week.

"Meanwhile, I am still negotiating with police in respect to the matter to see if there's some resolution that we can come to. I'm hopeful.

"He's seen some footage, but there's some other footage he's interested in that I'm quite happy for him to have a look at."

Macedone was hoping at the very least to have the matter resolved by March 20.

He admitted to be frustrated about how long things were taking, but he felt it was better than the alternative.

"I'm never happy with how long these things take," Macedon said.

"However I'm well aware these things do take time because there's a lot of things that have to be considered - with the NRL, with the police as well.

"If you don't do it properly you end up with egg all over yourself.

"Take your time, get it done properly, but I'm really, really hopeful come March 20 when this matter's next in court we can have a resolution one way or the other."
