The Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs have been advised that NRL Squad member Josh Addo-Carr has returned a positive result on the second sample taken on Friday night (September 6) at a NSW Police random roadside illicit drug test.
Josh has left training to be with his manager, Mario Tartak. The Club is offering Josh appropriate support during this difficult period.
The Bulldogs are committed to following the appropriate protocols with regards to the player's contract and CBA and will work with the NRL Integrity unit, the player and his management team accordingly throughout further investigations.
While we treat this issue with utmost seriousness, Josh's welfare is our highest priority at this time. We will not be making any further comment until more information is available to the club. We request that the privacy of Josh and his family be respected during this challenging time.
In the meantime, our focus remains steadfast on preparation for Sunday's match.
