According to Seven News, the video sees the player asking a woman if he could kiss her but was rebuffed when the woman said she was a lesbian.

The clip, which was filmed by a fellow partygoer, is set to be released by the Daily Telegraph at 7.30pm.

They report that the video also shows a drunk Pearce trying to kiss a woman and also urinating on himself.

After being rejected by the woman, he turns his attention to a Maltese terrier – the homeowner’s dog – before mimicking a lewd act on the poor thing.

Earlier in the day, Mitchell Pearce uploaded an image to Instagram on his way to a Sydney Harbour boat party.

Pearce, a Roosters co-captain, was involved in another infamous off-field incident with “the girl in the yellow dress” resulting in a suspension that cost him his place in the State of Origin series of 2013.

The Integrity Unit will work with the Roosters to ensure the matter is dealt with appropriately“, read the NRL statement. It will conduct an internal investigation.
