The NRL has fined NSW State of Origin player Api Koroisau $35,000 and issued a two-match suspension for an alleged breach of the league's COVID-19 biosecurity protocols.

"The NRL has taken into account that the alleged breach took place prior to more recent breaches, including before a group of St George Illawarra Dragons players breached NSW Public Health orders and before Queensland Player Jai Arrow breached the game’s biosecurity protocols," an NRL statement read.

NRL chief executive Andrew Abdo said the league had increased measures to make sure players comply with biosecurity protocols.
