Former North Melbourne player Tarryn Thomas is reportedly in trouble once again after Channel 7's Mitch Cleary said he was "caught with drugs and deals bags in the CBD of Melbourne".
Thomas was infamously sacked from the Kangaroos and suspended for 18 months after being found guilty of inappropriate behaviour towards women in 2024.
The 24-year-old was permitted to play football again at the start of this year, with multiple state-league clubs (Northern Bullants and Swan Districts) considering making a play for the former top 10 pick before ultimately deciding against it.
Cleary revealed on Sunday that Thomas had allegedly been involved in more trouble over the weekend.
"It centres around Tarryn Thomas, the former North Melbourne midfielder," Cleary said.
"Over the weekend, along with another man, have allegedly been caught with drugs and deal bags in the CBD of Melbourne.
"A statement to Seven News from Police have confirmed a 24-year-old Thomastown man, and a 25-year-old Ormond man are both expected to be charged on summons.

"This comes after a Lamborghini was spotted in a no-standing zone over the weekend. The police then executed a search on that vehicle, and found the drugs and the deal bags.
"It comes after three weeks that Tarryn was reportedly held hostage in Ballarat after a car deal went wrong."
It comes as Thomas was reportedly held at gunpoint in a shocking hostage situation in Ballarat over a fortnight ago.
News came to light that the ex-Roo attempted to sell his partner's car in the regional location, but was allegedly demanded to hand over the papers to the vehicle as well as thousands of dollars.
Thomas recounted this incident to police but has since retracted his statement after days of investigation, while the car he intended to sell has been found and returned.
Thomas remains under a 12-month good behaviour bond after pleading guilty to breaching a court order in November last year, however avoided criminal conviction for harassment of his former partner, a charge that was eventually dropped after being heard in court.
