Dear Dumbledore,
As a valued Member of our Club, we would like to update you with the following announcement:
As of only 30 minutes ago, the Melbourne Rebels have completed Cooper Vuna's disciplinary process concerning the incident in the early hours of Sunday morning.
Vuna was immediately stood down from the Rebels' tour of South Africa and sent home to Melbourne, along with teammate Kurtley Beale.
When finalising the decision, Rebels officials took into account his previous behaviour and exemplary work within the community.
The Club endorsed the immediate sanction of standing Vuna down for this week's match against the Cheetahs in Bloemfontein.
Vuna also agreed to private undertakings including not partaking in any form of social media activity.
After the hearing, Vuna stated "I am deeply sorry for the embarrassment this event has caused to the Club and the people I love. During my time with the Melbourne Rebels I have turned my life around.
"The outcome of this incident in Durban is not consistent with the values of my family, my church and my football Club.
"I apologise to the many loyal Rebel fans who have been an inspiration to me.
"Although I haven't deserved the opportunity to make amends for our unacceptable performance last week, be assured if selected I will do everything possible to deliver a winning result in Perth next week."
Vuna will be re-introduced to the team on Monday and will be available for selection in Round Eight.
This will be broken to the media shortly.
