Rose said that under NRL rules Mitchell was unable to comment.

"Latrell's doing OK. At this stage under the NRL rules he can't make any comment, the integrity unit are currently investigating," he told TV reporters.

"Latrell will make a comment after that's finished."

Mitchell was in Dubbo attending a coaching clinic and hosted an event as a guest at the Pastoral Hotel. He also attended games, posed for photos and signed autographs on Sunday at Apex Oval.

There's no indication of when and where the photo was taken.

Mitchell hasn't played rugby league since July when he suffered a Lisfranc injury to his foot.
