It was reported by The Daily Telegraph that the rookie, who was selected to make his first grade debut last week, was charged and appeared in court around May regarding the charges.

It was alleged by NSW police that Fainu "intentionally recorded intimate image without consent.” Whilst the sex was consensual, it is believed that Fainu put the act on Snapchat. While it was taken down immediately following the woman contacting police, police charged Fainu.

Leeds made a confident start, limiting Wakefield's metres and looking like they had opened the scoring through Mitch Garbutt, collecting a spilled kick, the video referee deeming that Brad Singleton had taken out the man contesting the ball and Leeds were denied inside 2 minutes.
