**Roosters release Paul Carter, career in doubt**
>
Paul Carter's immediate NRL career is in major doubt, with the Sydney Roosters becoming the third club in four years to release the utility forward mid- contract.
>
The Roosters on Wednesday announced Carter had been let go halfway through the first season of a two-year deal with the Bondi-based club.
>
Carter's release comes almost one year after being sacked by South Sydney for breaching the club's code of conduct and clauses in his contract.
>
He was believed to have turned up to Rabbitohs training after an alcohol-fuelled bender that prompted him to check into a rehabilitation facility in Thailand.
>
That incident came less than a month after he was also understood to have been stood down for four weeks for also arriving for training under the influence of alcohol.
>
The son of Penrith premiership-winning playmaker Steve Carter also had his contract torn up by Gold Coast in 2014 after repeat drink-driving offences.
>
Carter, 25, has played 40 NRL games in stints at the Titans, Rabbitohs and Roosters since his 2014 first-grade debut.
