You do realise it is exactly the same fine Cameron Munster got for doing the same thing a few years ago. Or what about Mitch Kenny’s post earlier this year where he only got a $10k fine. Or Val Holmes and Brandon Smith who got the same fine (maybe they are too brown for you so the NRL is letting them do the shitting as well).

I’m surprised the nrl are so soft on drugs/coke?
If you accidentally drop guffo on his head, you get 10 in the bin plus 3 weeks off. That’s effectively 4 weeks penalty to the team for a good tackle sorta gone wrong.
But, if you take illegal drugs, that you had to acquire illegally, and then bring the game into disrepute by being stupid enough to let someone film you snorting said illegal drugs, and then doubling down on your stupidity by not deleting it. You only get 1 week?
You should be given 4 weeks just for showing people just how stupid NRL players can be.
We all secretly wanted to see dunce guffo driven into the ground head first anyway. Just another captains play from Api.

Love a good Gus quote. Isn't saying there was a “degree of truth” to suggestions Addo-Carr lied to him the same as saying there was a “degree of deceit” to suggestions Addo-Carr told the truth? That's top shelf NRL media spin doctoring.

I don’t know what they are worried about? You only get 1 week for illegal drugs in the NRL. Just admit to it, cope ya week off, beat manly, and play the following week.

An oral sample taken from Bulldogs winger Josh Addo-Carr has returned a positive reading, according to police.
Addo-Carr was pulled over on Friday night while driving in the Sydney suburb of Wentworth Point and allegedly returned a positive test.
He was then tested a second time, with the sample sent away for further analysis.
NSW Police sources said the test came back positive on Friday.
An initial test of Addo-Carr showed indications of cocaine, but he was not charged as police awaited the results of an oral sample.
Addo-Carr has denied to club officials that he took any illegal drugs, but was stood down for the club’s return to the finals against Manly on Sunday in a bid to ease the pressure on the club and his teammates.

NSW Police released a statement on Tuesday afternoon confirming reports from this masthead that Addo-Carr was not subject to a second swab last Friday night because officers were called away to attend an urgent matter.
“About 10.45pm on Friday, officers attached to Auburn Police Area Command were patrolling Baywater Drive, Wentworth Point, when they stopped a Toyota hatchback for random testing,” the police statement said.
“The driver - a 29-year-old man - was subject to a roadside breath test which returned a negative result. The driver underwent a preliminary drug wipe, which allegedly returned a positive indication.

“An oral fluid sample was obtained and sent for further analysis. At this time, an urgent call for assistance was received in relation to a reported attempted home invasion on Church Street, Lidcombe, about 10.54pm.
“A secondary drug wipe was not conducted as officers were required to respond to the urgent call. Auburn Police Area Command has reviewed the incident and is satisfied with the actions of the officers involved.
“The investigation is ongoing, as police await the results of the forensic analysis. No charges have been laid at this time.”
Addo-Carr’s lawyer Elias Tabchouri said that while his client didn’t argue with the alleged facts, he maintained that he did not ingest any drugs not prescribed by a doctor at any time.
