In a surprising turn of events, NRL legend Andrew Johns has addressed the difficult decision regarding Josh Addo-Carr’s sacking from the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs. While praising Addo-Carr’s skill and contributions to the team, Johns stated that despite his talent, club policies must be upheld.
“We are deeply saddened by this outcome. Josh is a fine player with immense talent, but our policy regarding drug tests is non-negotiable. Unfortunately, the positive test result has forced us to make this decision,” said Johns.
This shocking announcement follows a turbulent period for Addo-Carr, who had been a key figure for both the Bulldogs and the New South Wales Blues in the State of Origin series. The news has left fans and players alike in disbelief, but the Bulldogs remain firm in their zero-tolerance approach to drug-related offenses.
The sacking has cast a shadow over Addo-Carr’s once-bright career, and it remains to be seen how he will respond to this dramatic development.
