The NRL Integrity Unit confirmed just minutes ago that Slate returned an anomalous sample during routine post-match screening. While officials have not disclosed the specific substance involved, insiders describe the result as “unexpected and currently under investigation.”
The Sydney Rangers released a brief statement acknowledging the situation:
