Kirisome Auva'a to be banned from Rabbitohs training camp in Arizona after calls for more action over assault charges THE NRL will finally take some action against controversial Rabbitohs centre Kirisome Auva'a by banning him from South Sydney's historic training camp in the United States. Souths players leave for a high-altitude camp in Arizona on Friday with Auva'a expected to be told today his ticket will be cancelled. The dramatic development comes after a Daily Telegraph campaign for the NRL to take serious action against players found guilty of domestic violence. Auva'a pleaded guilty to charges of recklessly causing injury and assault in a violent attack that left his ex-girlfriend with cuts and bruises. Auva'a also pleaded guilty to two counts of criminal damage. NRL management and South Sydney have been locked in talks about Auva'a for the past two days. Not travelling Those discussions are expected to continue and, hopefully, be finalised on Thursday or early Friday. No matter when the final decision is made on Auva'a"s punishment, The Daily Telegraph has been told the bullocking centre won't be on the plane headed to America. Souths will be given first chance to withdraw Auva'a. If they don't, the NRL will step in. The ugly incident has taken some gloss of South Sydney's memorable grand final triumph. Auva'a, 22, continued to play all season after the assault, helping Souths end a 43-year premiership drought. Pending suspension It is understood Auva'a is also facing an NRL imposed suspension at the start of next season. That suspension could be severe. "Now that the court case has concluded we can review all the facts and submissions and determine any further sanctions," said an NRL spokesman. The main thing is to get the right outcome, based on all the facts, and that's what we'll do with this process. The spokesman said the NRL would discuss with Souths whether Auva'a should travel to Arizona. South Sydney CEO Shane Richardson informed the NRL's integrity unit about Auva'a"s assault charges in May. Kirisome Auva'a (second from right) with some of his Rabbitohs teammates last season.

It is understood the incident occurred in January when Auva'a attended a wedding in Melbourne. The NRL has been accused of acting inconsistently over a series of off-field dramas in the past year. NRL chief executive Dave Smith told The Daily Telegraph yesterday: "Domestic violence is a very big issue that we take very seriously and anything we can do to stamp out domestic violence by setting an example we will do that."
