In a surprising turn of events in the City of Sin, the NRL has found itself entangled in a bit of off-field drama in Las Vegas involving Canberra Raiders' own Hudson Young and Morgan Smithies.
Raiders' head honcho Ricky Stuart has confirmed the rumblings, revealing that the dynamic duo were caught up in a tiff on the kickoff night of their camp.
The pair are set to face the music in front of the press on Monday morning (well, early Tuesday morning for us Aussies) in Las Vegas, as they address the incident head-on.
Word on the street is that things heated up between the two lads after a wild night out on Thursday, where a hotel room snafu left one of them stranded.
Security at the hotel had to step in to cool things down, promptly showing the pair the exit.
While early whispers hinted at a possible weapon being involved, it turns out the only thing weapon-like was an inflatable baseball bat.
Talk about a swing and a miss!
As the dust settles on this Las Vegas showdown, the Rugby League world holds its breath as the Raiders sort through this bump in the road.
