Rugby league star Willie Mason has been caught urinating in public after a drinking session at a Sydney pub on the weekend.
Mason, a former NSW and Australian representative player who plays for the Sydney Roosters, was snapped urinating on a wall outside the Golden Sheaf Hotel in Double Bay on Saturday night following his side's heavy loss to the Newcastle Knights, the Daily Telegraph reports.
The revealing photograph could not come at a worse time for the embattled code, which is still reeling from the revelations of a 2002 group sex scandal involving league personality Matthew Johns and his former t
eam the Cronulla Sharks.
Mason confirmed the incident to the newspaper and will have a meeting with Roosters management today.
Roosters chief executive Steve Noyce said the club will check its discipline code before deciding on an appropriate punishment, but it will at least include a fine, the Telegraph reports.
"It's a silly thing for him to do — I know Willie is disappointed by his actions," Mr Noyce reportedly said.
It is not the first time this season Mason has been in trouble.
The burly forward was stood down along with Queensland Origin forward Nate Myles for breaking the club's alcohol policy in March.
