Penrith hooker Api Koroisau says last year's State of Origin COVID-19 breach prompted him to stop drinking alcohol this season, a decision he credits for his strong form with the reigning premiers.
Koroisau was fined a total of $50,000 and suspended for two games for bringing a woman into NSW's 2021 State of Origin camp, in violation of the strict biosecurity bubbles that were in place at the time.
