The former NRL star, 41, is expected to appear in court on Wednesday against the AVO who was deposited by the police on behalf of his wife

This comes after Merritt was transported urgently to the hospital and put to life after the former Rabbitoh star was found unconscious in his aunt’s house
He would also appear for the New South Wales Blues during the 2013 original series while winning the PremièreHip with the Souths in 2014, the same year he retired from Footy.
In 2023, Merritt was transported urgently to the hospital and put support for life after the former Rabbitoh star was found unconscious at the home of his aunt.
The legend of the bunnies was placed in a coma in the hospital but recovered, admitting that he had had the “chance of being alive” after saying that he had succeeded in a double fight of pneumonia.
Josh Addo-Carr, who recently signed for Paramatta, after being released by the Bulldogs, and the former Ligue Anthonie Mundie visited the former Southern star in the hospital.
Merritt, who had been crowned the top scorer in the LNR in three seasons, thanked his wife and children during his retirement announcement in 2014.
“I love playing for South Sydney, it has been one of my dreams since I was a little child who had jumped the fence to Redfern Oval to watch guys like Mario Fenech and Craig Coleman Cour,” he told the time.
“I would like to thank my wonderful Faith woman and my children … my coaches and teammates from my first match for the Rovers of Alexandria to Rabbitohs today.
