Adams lost consciousness briefly, concerning onlookers in the aftermath.

Adams was released from hospital on Sunday morning and was not on the training track with teammates on Monday as the club monitored his health following the incident.

The 32-year-old wrote on social media on Monday night that the matter was in the hands of NSW Police, which is investigating the incident.

“To everyone who has sent their love, thank you. I am doing OK. This is now a police matter and I won’t be commenting further,” Adams wrote on social media.

NSW Police told this masthead on Tuesday that its inquiries were continuing and no arrests had been made or charges laid.

Police became aware of the incident soon after it occurred outside the revamped eastern suburbs venue Club Rose Bay, which only re-opened in December. The alleged assailants were not identified at the scene.
