Raiders star Josh Papalii has copped a $1000 fine and an eight month driving ban over that drink driving incident back in January.
It’s after Papalii pleaded guilty in the ACT Magistrate’s Court today to level three drink driving.
In a bizarre twist, it’s understood Papalii was the one who called the police on himself – twice!
The news comes just a day after Papalii was one of only two Raiders players named in the Kangaroos squad for next week’s ANZAC Test in Canberra.
As for what penalties he may or may not receive from the Raiders and the NRL..
The Raiders are currently working with the NRL Integrity Unit on the best way forward.
