The NRL is reportedly set to investigate Roosters and NSW skipper James Tedesco after a young woman claimed he yelled "squid games" at her outside a pub last week.
20-year-old Tiffany Trinh, who is of Vietnamese descent, told the Sydney Morning Herald the comment felt like a "joke about her race" and that she intended to lay a formal complaint with the NRL.
Squid Game is a South Korean survival drama television series on Netflix, which recently went number one in 90 countries.
The Roosters have already completed their own internal investigation into the matter and said Tedesco had no case to answer.
Tedesco and the club claim he was only discussing the TV show with his friends while in close proximity to Trinh.
