\u201cThe NRL has no information relating to a potential breach of the NRL Rules by the player,\u201d an NRL spokesman told Code Sports.<\/p>\n
Smith was flying in from Sydney with the Rabbitohs ahead of their match with the Titans, being stopped by police after disembarking the flight. <\/p>\n
After questioning, he was allowed to go and able to join his teammates at a Broadbeach hotel <\/p>\n
\u201cSouths were filing off the plane heading to luggage and Queensland police took Smith aside and spoke to him for a considerable amount of time,\u201d veteran journalist Phil Rothfield said on the Big Sports Breakfast radio show.<\/p>\n
\u201cThey have been trying to track Brandon for sometime. When they couldn\u2019t get hold of him, they said they saw he was coming to the Gold Coast and they wanted to chat to him.\u201d<\/p>\n
