And if he drives on drugs again and kills or injures someone ? Where does that leave the club from a marketing perspective ?
Im no angel , but even I don't do stupid shit like this , not once but twice that he's been caught now. We look silly as an organisation and if it is in our policies then it's not about whether we need him as a player or not , he's gone. Or we may as well fold the policy's up and bin them and have a free for all.
I know we need him , I'd be happier if it never got out and the club just swept it under the carpet. But the big picture is , we are a business with policies , sponsors and contracts that need to be followed . If it were just a positive test , you could brush it. But the idiots cruising around Sydney on the Charlie .
He'll be sacked , no rehab supplied , no hand holding , no special treatment , as per whatever is written in his contract will unfortunately be executed. Which I'm sure has a very strict no drug driving rule. Only thing that may save him is if we were a bit more lenient when he signed his new agreement compared to his last one.
Imagine earning 10 grand a week , having hundreds of cuzzies that idolise you who'd drinks you around , amd being such a dumb khunt not to get a Uber or driver. The cops would have his car flagged as a potential drug driver and all. Not an ounce of sympathy. Can forgive once , twice is just entitlement and lack of respect for the privilege in life you've been dealt.

Can't really argue with any of this lol. Ado Carr should have known way better

Wiz, I think you've explained this as well as anyone could have. . He's been given a second chance at Parramatta and has blown it. He'll be sacked without doubt imo.

Not only sacked, no other nrl club will look at him after this. Probably can get a run in England tho. Maybe take Sloans spot over there lol

He'll end up in the super league.

So easy to get an uber if you are on that type of gear and it would be a non issue haha. Just plain stupid really
If Ezra Mam can keep his position with the Broncs after his DUI and injury to other drivers, it would be hypocritical of the NRL to deregister him. At least there is a precedent.
If the Eels choose to tear up his contract, thats a different story
Sure Ezra was lucky not to be sacked and given a second chance, but if he ever got busted again he'll be sacked. Also, he was 21 - 22 when the incident happened. Addo-Carr at 31 has way more life experience to understand driving under the influence is not just dumb and dangerous, it would probably cost him his career and his income.
He knows that an English club will pick him up.

Im by no means excusing it. Its pure stupidity what he did.
Yeah he should know better, but dont forget Ezra had the off season Bali incident too. He should have known better as well. Im just saying that there would be a case against a NRL termination if the club decided he is worth defending.
I heard on one of the morning talkback shows this morning that they are awaiting the result of his second test and that the roadside test was positive. Whether it was contact testing or an actual swab test, who knows. No idea how accurate that is, just sharing what I heard.
I would guess if he admits he has a problem and seeks help, he might keep his contract, whereas if he continues to deny it like he did at the Bulldogs, then see ya later

"It's easy to focus on what he's done here and there's no doubt he's done a very stupid, stupid thing. I think before making a decision on whether to sack him or not I think it's important to take stock of what good he brings to the club. I'm not on…"

They will have to sack him for sure. The problem is there no one available for 2027 & we have fuck all outside backs coming thru the grades.
Rocco berry is available or Jerel Skelton there isn't much more then that,
We have Bloomfield coming thru, or Alameddine but both are probably not ready just yet. Also have Vaileiti but he's more of a centre
id probably sign Skelton for one year or try and get Sloan to change he's mind
