News Josh Dugan flicked by the Sharks (COVID breach)

[Fangs]

Dugan was a good player, especially in the early days. Very physical and put his body on the line plenty of times. No surprises he copped so many injuries in his career.

His off field record is revolting. The NRL won't miss him.

 

[Marshall_magic]

Exactly. He was never that good

he had the raw ability but never really evolved his game. Had he developed a passing range he would have been an excellent fullback.

 

[Generalzod]

Community work?
Does he mean community service ?

Its still community work...

 

[Generalzod]

He just lives just around the corner from me , Hardly speaks to no one keeps to himself, walks around with a hoody as if people dont know who he is , blames kids from around here for playing knock and run ...lol

 

[seanoff]

he never really evolved

Fixed.

Yes mate but his contract with the club finished at the end of this season. There is no annual leave for him as he doesn’t have a contracted off and pre season with the sharks. Even if he did the non pay period would still be from last week til November… a significant amount of money saved.

A 200k saving out of a near 4 million $ contract is hardly anything to be too happy about. He was done when Saints didn't want him anymore.

Not to be sneezed at when you can front load and use 200k next year instead. That the difference between resigning a tolman or taking an unwanted sims.

Best thing Saints did was get rid of him , Pity they lost Mat ,dread the day his playing against Dragons he will enjoy scoring against the stupid coach who let him go I think.

Gossip alert

He was a good player at his best but probably the worst player of all time in the 200+ club games, 10+ Origins and 10+ internationals club. He is to the 200-10-10 what John Morris is to the 300 game club.

From the site of the Fair Work Ombudsman:

Serious misconduct​

When an employee is terminated on the grounds of serious misconduct, the employer doesn't have to provide any notice of termination. However, the employer does have to pay the employee all outstanding entitlements such as payment for time worked, annual leave and sometimes long service leave. Whether an employer needs to pay out long service leave depends on where the entitlement comes from, usually state or territory long service leave laws.

Sacked by two clubs but “wouldn’t do anything different“! Dckhead to the end. Staggering that clubs kept throwing silly money at him.

You do know that Craig Bellamy wanted to sign him twice, right?

You can read about it here and here.

I’d have given him a season until he was shown the door. We showed withScott we don’t tolerate repeat dck heads

Melbourne clearly tolerates dickheads. See, eg, Cameron Smith signing two contracts.

I had a friend who stopped following the game around 2013. In 2018 we were at the local when he saw Dugan on a screen in the background and had 2 questions, 1. Who the hell is that? 2. Josh Dugan is still alive?

 

[Mark B]

Oh yeah. What will be his offending that will land him in the slammer?

Columbian marching powder would be my guess.

Jesus H f**king Christ thank goodness you're not our Attorney-General?! Convicting a bloke of an offence before he even commits it?! And not only that, you're sentencing him to some jail time for enjoying some nose beers?!
