Roosters rookie Chris Smith certainly had an interesting trip to Auckland.

Apart from featuring in the side that took out the Grand Final of the tournament, Smith also had an incident at the airport, according to a report by insidesport.com.au.

As Smith went to collect his bags from the claiming area at the airport, sniffer dogs launched themselves at him.

Apparently, Smith had accidentally brought a banana onto the flight and was detained and fined for the incident.

Funnily enough, while he was detained he ran into the Panthers' Corey Waddell who was also fined for the same thing.

And to think, the season hasn't even started yet!
