Roosters slap Radley with 10-game ban amid drug scandal

Smith appeared in Queensland's Southport Magistrates Court on Thursday, only days after text messages between the hooker and Radley were leaked to the press.

While Radley has not been charged, the Roosters released a statement on Thursday afternoon saying he had brought the club into disrepute and had accepted their sanctions.

Radley will be unavailable for selection until round 11 next NRL season and will donate $30,000 to St Vincent's Hospital as part of his punishment.

"I want to sincerely apologise to the club, my teammates, our sponsors, members and fans for the negative spotlight I have brought on the Roosters," Radley said in a statement.

"I accept the sanctions in full and will work hard to earn back the trust and respect of everyone who supports this great club."
