The alleged incident took place on Saturday night following the Titans' Friday night sudden death semi-final loss to Brisbane.

News Corp obtained the footage of the alleged bikie standover man, Chris Bloomfield, who was filmed holding a giant wad of cash and saying:

“Haynesy just gave me five grand.”

Hayne was then reportedly filmed responding nonchalantly shrugging his shoulders and saying:  

“Cash money fam, cash money. Give me a f ... ing cigarette.”

Hayne has reportedly been warned about his relationships with criminals in the past but said in a statement released by the club:

 “Over the weekend I was out with a group of players and friends for some end of footy season drinks,” he said.

“There were some people there that I knew and some people there I didn't know, including Chris Bloomfield who I met for the first time.

"As any human would do, I said hello to those I came into contact with and was friendly as normal. I understand Bloomfield filmed a few short Snapchat videos of me rapping to an Eminem song.

“At the time, I was not aware of this person’s history with the law and alleged bikie affiliations.

"I also want to make it very clear that a comment in the video which suggested I supplied Chris with a large sum of money is not true. This money was not mine.

"This was a prank initiated by Bloomfield and was not intended to be taken seriously.

“It was also not my voice shouting for a cigarette and I was not involved with any of the offensive comments subsequently added to this video.”
 
The Gold Coast Titans today began an internal investigation to determine the events of last weekend and circumstances in respect to a video.

The NRL Intergrity Unit is also investigating.
