Wallabies livewire Kurtley Beale has apologised to his bosses after being caught up in a video controversy.
Beale contacted Rugby Australia CEO Raelene Castle to say the 2016 video, which has just re-surfaced, did "not reflect the image expected" of a test player, rugby.com.au. has reported.
NRL player Corey Norman had filmed someone snorting a white substance, and Beale is recorded laughing.
Norman was fined $20,000 and suspended for eight weeks at the time after a series of indiscretions.
Castle said: "Kurtley contacted me to apologise for the negative attention the video had attracted and expressed regret at putting himself in a compromising position at that time.
