- Players were celebrating end of season trip in Indonesia
- Became involved in alleged incident with fan seeking a selfie
- Allegations are being investigated by NRL Integrity Unit
Two high profile NRL players are being investigated over an alleged altercation with fans while in Bali for their end-of-season holiday.
Just one day after the Brisbane Broncos sacked coach Kevin Walters, the NRL club faces another unwanted distraction after missing out on the 2024 finals.
Broncos 2023 grand final superstars Reece Walsh and Ezra Mama are being investigated by the NRL integrity unit after the alleged incident that took place late at night in Bali.
A fan has officially lodged complaints with the NRL and the Brisbane Broncos over the alleged behaviour of the players after they asked for a selfie.

It is alleged that Walsh was posing for the photo when Mam intervened. The phone involved has since gone missing.
News Corp has reported that the players later paid for a replacement phone.
The two Broncos players posted images on Instagram two days prior, with Walsh raising a glass of red wine and captioning the image: ‘Just a little quiet time’.
The players were also snapped together at an NBA match in the United States ahead of the 2024 season-opener in Las Vegas.
It comes just one day after Queensland State of Origin coach Billy Slater stepped up to Walsh.
‘He is not perfect and sometimes we expect our young stars to be perfect too early,’ Slater said on his Channel 9 podcast.
‘But he is only 22 and you have to take yourself back to 22 and say, ‘How many rough edges did I have?’
‘He will develop and grow as a person and player.
‘We should be thankful that guys like Reece want to be a part of our game because they bring everything to our game.
