Huge difference between this and what Brent Read says. Someone has it horribly wronghttps://x.com/PhilGould15/status/1832979409793622375:
"RUMOUR MILL REGARDING JOSH ADDO-CARR
in response to circulating rumours and now several media enquiries regarding Josh Addo-Carr -
On Friday evening Josh was pulled over and subjected to a random roadside drug test. The test results were negative and Josh was allowed to continue on his way. Happens to all of us at some stage on the roads. It’s the Police keeping the community safe. We appreciate their work. There is absolutely no truth to rumours that Josh had any issue. None whatsoever. Enjoy your finals football everyone."
Sounds like damage controlInteresting that the Dogs had a 2nd meeting with Addo-Carr with Gus now saying they may rest him this week due to the distraction …
A shame. I like The Fox. He has a pleasant demeanor, in contrast to his mate, Mitchell.Just watched a 2min piece from Gus, said Addo-Carr told them there was nothing to worry about and wouldn’t hear anymore of it, which turned out to be wrong. The club can’t stand him down at all under RLPA rules, as they wait for a B sample, which may take 8 weeks to come back, so they are saying he made the decision himself
Putting 2 and 2 together I think Josh may know what the result of the B sample is going to be

“Just had to duck out and get a phone charger”‘Degrees of truth’: How Addo-Carr ‘stood himself down’ as cops’ odd behaviour explained, Gus speaks

This article is so weird, this situation is so bizarre.
A do-or-die semi and a guy who apparently had a test that showed negative to all drugs, is voluntarily standing down? I'd be picketing at Mt Smart if we stood down a rep winger for a finals match to 'avoid distraction'.
It was a mitigating factor for sure but we had some decent depth, didn't we? I don't want too many excuses for our appalling season.
Why, Josh, why? It's finals time too, brah.
Holy f**k man. What a stupid, lying merkin.
Plus that ogre Gus for playing his usual 'f**k you media' lying BS game when he had no right to.
Nah, I just read an initial story where it seemed to me like he just took JAC's word for it and said it was baseless. I think reading the following quotes, you're right, but gee he's put a lot of faith in the honesty of a guy whose story never stood up.Have you listened to Gus on any of the NRL on Nine podcasts ? I think he has handled it extremely well tbh, that initial tweet was all sent out off the version of events Addo-Carr was giving him. It wasn’t until after that tweet that the real facts started to surface and I think from that point Gus covered himself well like he didn’t trust what was coming out of Addo Carrs mouth and why they advised him to sit this one out
