The Bulldogs and the NRL are investigating an incident involving Canterbury back-rower Adam Elliott during the weekend.
It is understood Elliott, who was drinking with teammates, was asked to leave an establishment on Sunday afternoon. There was no breach of the game’s biosecurity concerns as the restaurant was an approved venue by the NRL.
The NRL and the club were made aware of the incident on Monday morning.
Elliott, who only recently played his 100th top grade game for the club, said earlier this year he would take “professional help in regards to issues with alcohol” after a string of boozed-related off-field incidents.
He made headlines in February after an incident involving former teammate Michael Lichaa.
The Bulldogs were due to train on Monday.
Canterbury sit at the bottom of the premiership ladder with just two wins this season.
