N\ufeffotorious pitch invader 'Jarvo' has been charged by Merseyside Police after slipping past security at Harris Dickinson Stadium and standing arm-in-arm with the Kangaroos<\/a> during the national anthem before the second Ashes Test.<\/p>\n

Jarvo, real name Daniel Jarvis, was dressed in a full Kangaroos kit, which had Jarvo and the number 69 on the back. He put his arm around Cameron Munster at the end of the Kangaroos line-up.<\/p>\n

Munster and Patrick Carrigan both looked bemused by his presence but Munster put his arm around Jarvis as the anthem started.<\/p>\n

Merseyside Police released a statement after the event that a man had been arrested for entering the pitch which has now updated to say he's been charged. \ufeff<\/p>\n

"We have charged a man following an incident at the Hill Dickinson Stadium in Liverpool yesterday, Saturday November 1 (Sunday AEDT)," the statement read.<\/p>\n

"Officers detained a man at around 2.30pm ahead of the England v Australia rugby league match.<\/p>\n

Post-match, Munster explained exactly what happened to Nine and The Sydney Morning Herald's Michael Chammas\ufeff.<\/p>\n

"Myself and Patty Carrigan have a bit of a superstition that we stand together for the anthem," Munster said.<\/p>\n

"Some guy tried to get in between me and him and I said 'nah'. Then he asked me again, 'can I stand next to you and hold you'. I said righto mate. Do what you need to do. I just assumed he had some corporate package or some agreement with the Kangaroos that he could jump in for the anthem. Then I realised who it was. It was the guy who does that stuff on the regular. It took me a while to click on but it was pretty funny. He got me.<\/p>\n

"He tried talking to me but I didn't give him a whole heap because no one tipped me up that it was going to happen. It was a bit weird, but I just went with it. He got me an absolute ripper.<\/p>\n

"Security guards or one of the people who work at the grounds went and grabbed him and were pretty aggressive with him. I knew straight away I got stitched up massively."<\/p>\n
