Two of the top rugby league stars have been involved in controversy on the eve of a new season.
Adam Reynolds and Patrick Carrigan of the Brisbane Broncos are rumored to have gotten into an intoxicated altercation in the city of Brisbane over the weekend.
During Monday afternoon in Australia, a video appeared on social media that appeared to show Adam Reynolds and Patrick Carrigan, two senior Broncos players, fighting.
Tristan Sailor, a former Leigh Leopards target, excelled during the Broncos’ unofficial trial against the Wynnum Manly Seagulls over the weekend, which was played without the majority of their best 17.
On Sunday, there was a fan event after this, two players allegedly got into a fight after the playing group went out for drinks.
The Broncos are looking into an incident involving some of its playing group in Brisbane City last night, the National Rugby League team said in a statement regarding the situation.
The NRL Integrity Unit has been informed of the matter.” The Club was notified of the incident last night and has been in contact with players throughout the day to get clarification on the specifics of what transpired.
This is a huge setback because not only is the NRL season about to begin, but the entire rugby league season is also approaching.
