The NRL has handed Canberra players Hudson Young and Morgan Smithies breach notices for their actions inside a Las Vegas hotel elevator.
It is likely the pair will be hit with a fine.
“The National Rugby League (NRL) today issued Canberra Raiders players Hudson Young and Morgan Smithies with a Breach Notice alleging a breach of the NRL Code of Conduct,” the NRL said on Monday.
“The Breach Notice alleges the players engaged in conduct which has brought the game and their Club into disrepute. The NRL recognises that the players provided a public apology and have accepted responsibility for their actions.
“In accordance with the Collective Bargaining Agreement with the RLPA, information concerning the NRL’s proposed sanction will not be disclosed until the players have had the opportunity to respond to the alleged breach and the matter is finalised.”
