Latu played in the match off the bench but has not featured in a sky blue jersey since being stood down until further notice. He has entered a drink driver education course and agreed to counselling.

The hooker was named on the Waratahs bench for their must-win clash but coach Daryl Gibson said on Thursday morning a decision would be made, after consultation with RA, whether Latu would be available to face the Brumbies at Bankwest Stadium.

The club confirmed later on Thursday that Latu was eligible for selection.

“We have taken into account the steps that Tolu has taken in recent weeks to address his actions and behaviours and acknowledge his time served on the sidelines," NSW Rugby Union CEO, Andrew Hore said.

“While he is still subject to potential Code of Conduct processes pending the outcome of his sentencing, Tolu will be available for selection for the NSW Waratahs until such time.
