The NRL Integrity Unit has served Panthers star Nathan Cleary with an amended breach notice following the emergence of two videos showing him flouting COVID-19 social distancing protocols on Anzac Day.
The NRL confirmed that Cleary's breach notice has been revised after two TikTok videos were brought to light in which Cleary dances with friends of his sister.
NSW Police has since announced Cleary would not face sanction over the incident, but have issued Personal Infringement Notices and $1000 fines to the five women involved.
The NRL announced via a short statement on Friday night that Cleary had been served "with an amended breach notice after additional information surfaced about a matter at his home which it is alleged has brought the game into disrepute".
Cleary will have five days to respond to the notice, with his final penalty confirmed once he does.
The NSW Origin half has already been issued with a $10,000 fine and suspension for one match by the NRL on Tuesday for bringing the game into disrepute after photos were published of him with several of the women on a lounge. Sixty per cent of the fine and the match ban will be suspended for the remainder of the season.

Cleary was one of four players alongside fellow Blues representatives Latrell Mitchell and Josh Addo-Carr to be served with breach notices for breaking social distancing rules, with players given five days to respond to the notice.
Punishments in all cases could be increased or reduced pending the players' response.
When asked about the photo on Tuesday, Cleary told Channel Nine that he was in contact with the women, which he identified as friends of his sister, for "no longer than 10 minutes" after they stopped by his house while they were waiting for a lift.
"In the time they were here there was a photo that was taken that I had no idea about until this morning," Cleary said.
"As a role model in the community this obviously is not good enough.
"I shouldn't have done it. I stuffed up."
