Manly NRL star Brett Stewart has been charged with a low-range drink-driving offence after failing a random breath test on Sydney’s northern beaches on Monday morning.
Stewart was pulled over on Pittwater Rd at Warriewood at around 10am, and after failing a breath test, was taken to Mona Vale Police Station where he allegedly recorded a blood alcohol level of 0.079.
The Sea Eagles have confirmed they are aware of the incident and have informed the NRL integrity unit.
Stewart is the latest in a string of NRL stars to have blown over the limit in recent years.
Knights prop Willie Mason is the latest victim, though didn’t incur a suspension.
Former Rooster Todd Carney earned himself a $10,000 fine for DUI in 2011, while North Queensland’s James Tamou was suspended from State of Origin and fined $20,000 last year for blowing four times the legal limit and driving without a license.
