According to the Daily Mail, the woman claims she met Korosiau via Instagram when the pair began messaging each other in early June.
She claims they met up twice while he was in camp with the Blues, and were set to meet a third time before Koroisau called it off after Queensland forward Jai Arrow was booted out of Maroons camp for bringing a woman in against the rules
The report suggests the woman alerted Koroisau’s wife herself to the alleged affair via a series of Instagram direct messages.
More to come.
