Sydney Roosters hardman Victor Radley is facing a possible fine and suspension as the NRL investigates an incident at a party in December.
Nine's Danny Weidler has revealed a penalty could be handed down as soon as this afternoon.
"In relation to a party incident in December last year, the NRL have been looking at this altercation for quite some time," Weidler reported.
"I believe they're very close to coming to a conclusion on the Victor Radley matter.
"Victor Radley is likely to have a suspension and possibly a fine as well from the NRL relating to this altercation."
Radley missed much of the 2020 season after rupturing his ACL in June and the Roosters website says he's targeting a return to the field in the "early rounds" of 2021. He hasn't been named in the squad to play Manly on Saturday.
"He's been out of football due to an ACL (injury) for most of last year, unfortunately for the Roosters they really missed him on the field, and they could be missing him some more if he is fined and suspended by the NRL," Weidler said.
"We could hear about this later today."
