0 Dragons recruit Luciano Leilua could miss the start of the NRL season after being handed a breach notice over a recent drink driving incident.
The 27-year-old was found guilty of low-range drink driving, which saw him fined $3000 and suspended from driving for one month.
The incident took place prior to Leilua’s departure from the Cowboys, where it is alleged he failed to disclose the charge to his club or the NRL integrity unit.
