DRAGONS young gun Addin Fonua-Blake has been fined $1000 and hit with a 12 month suspended jail sentence for assaulting his ex-girlfriend.
The promising prop and former Dragons NYC captain pled guilty to the charge of common assault and was sentenced in Waverley court last Wednesday.
Fonua-Blake was hit with a Section 12 suspended sentence meaning he will not serve jail time but will enter into a good behaviour bond which will require him to comply with specific terms.
If he fails to comply with the terms of the behaviour bond, he will be recalled to court and will likely be sent to prison.
Touted as a future NRL star for the Red V, Fonua-Blakes career is now in serious jeopardy and could be over before it begins.
The Dragons stood down the junior Kiwi from club duties in January after the incident was reported and will likely make a call on his future early next week.
Fonua-Blake is not only player the club has been forced to stand down in recent months. New recruit Dane Nielsens career is also in limbo after he was stood down for allegedly biting a womans leg at a Cronulla night club.
The NRL Integrity Unit is still investigating the Nielsen matter.
