He’s good mates with Vaughan from their time in the Italy team. It’s all speculation obviously I’m just trying to work out who we can field vs Manly. Not many I reckon.

They go from 12 to 5 pretty quickly.
Because it's the rules.
Let's hope they are 4 duds. We have a high probability with our team.
Player bolted and left his wallet there...wonder who
We just forfeit the Manly game
Hopefully they don’t test the credit cards in there.
Pardon me? Who the f**k do you think you are using that thing called a brain? Get with the program, buddy. They should all be sentenced to death!

The NRL are set to look into the actions of a number of Dragons players on Saturday night.
The Dragons held a crisis meeting on Sunday morning and the NRL integrity unit will interview all the players involved on Sunday.
It is understood the three Dragons players currently involved in the State of Origin series were not in attendance. That includes Ben Hunt, Andrew McCullough and Tariq Sims.
Police sources say players in attendance included Zac Lomax, Josh McGuire, Kaide Ellis, and Blake Lawrie.
It is believed other players were also in attendance with police allegedly locating the wallet of another player on the barbecue but there was no sign of him.
It is believed the group were having a barbecue to watch the Saturday night NRL games and claim they were not aware they were breaching any rules.
It is understood that at 6.25pm police first received information relating to a potential breach of COVID restrictions at the address.
A female witness stated that up to 15 people were at the location having a party.
At 8.23pm a further call to police was received again indicating a party with 20-25 people was taking place at the same location.
Players apparently attended a party at Paul Vaughan’s house.
Police then attended at 9.40pm and spoke with Ellie Vaughan, the wife of Paul.
The Dragons players are currently on a break and not due back to training until Wednesday given the team has a bye next weekend.
It’s not Vaughan’s first COVID drama. Last August, he was forced to undergo 14 days in isolation after breaching the NRL’s ‘bubble’ by visiting a café ahead of a Dragons’ game against the Sydney Roosters.
