Israel Folau may be thwarted in his bid to play for Tonga in their rugby league internationals against Great Britain and his native Australia in October.
The controversial dual-code international, 30, who played for the Wallabies against the rugby union Lions in 2013, is currently locked in a legal battle with Rugby Australia over his sacking in May for posting homophobic comments on social media.
The Tonga National Rugby League released a statement on Monday saying the former Melbourne and Brisbane outside back and his 24-year-old brother John have been registered with them and are set to play in the Tests against the touring Lions in Hamilton on October 26 and Australia in Auckland a week later.
