Former Gold Coast captain Kevin Proctor is in hot water after posting a video on social media of himself vaping inside CommBank Stadium during the NRL club's loss to Canterbury.
In a now-deleted Instagram story, Proctor can be seen vaping inside a cubicle at CommBank Stadium at halftime of the Titans 36-26 loss on Sunday.
The video was uploaded with the caption "not the halftime vape", with Proctor inhaling and then shaking his head with the Titans down 26-10 at the time.
Proctor was not playing in the match, but was part of the squad as 19th man with the video believed to be taken within a toilet cubicle inside the Titans' changerooms.
Stadium officials have also confirmed to AAP that vaping is not permitted in the seating bowl or anywhere around the stadium.
In order for people to vape or smoke at the venue, they are required to request a pass out and go outside of the stadium itself.
The incident has been noted by both the NRL and the Titans, with Proctor expected to face some disciplinary action from the club as soon as Monday.
A co-captain at the club as recently as last year, Proctor has not featured for the Titans since round nine in May.
The matter from a senior player again raises the issue of culture at the NRL club, who have lost their last eight games.
They sit above only Wests Tigers on for-and-against at the bottom of the NRL ladder, with coach Justin Holbrook's job firmly in the spotlight.
Holbrook conceded again on Sunday that a lack of experience was a key issue, after releasing established halfback Jamal Fogarty at the start of the season.
Titans management had declared at the end of last year that they were on the verge of a premiership window, believing two titles were possible before 2030.
