    • 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

        • will he be allowed to enter england with 2 drug convictions chief ?

          • Jesh mate, im just hoping there's an 0.01% chance the second blood test comes back negative.  Not just because he's an eel, but because he's always been a passionate player and has a young family also. 

            I know id never do it now , i rarely have more than one drink nowadays at the most two,  but in my late 20s, id always say i would never drink more than a couple before driving,  but after 4 or 5, you think you're invincible.    That's maybe what has happened to Josh.

            • Don't be sorry for him because he has a young family. He should have thought of that. There are plenty of other ways he can earn an income. He doesn't have to earn it only from an NRL career. If I had done what he has done (multiple times), I'm getting sacked. Me having a young family to support would not be considered at all.

              • Yes mate he has to face the consequences.  He has a privileged position in the game and earns 10 x more than the average person.  Its about time these players respect it

                 

              • My employers most certainly sacking me after one offence and there's not even a question about it. There's no suggestion of my work being responsible for my rehab or expectation they keep me on the books for 12 weeks whilst I do my punishment , no moving to England to take an even more luctive role for less work  , and no 10 grand a week in my pocket whilst we await the lab tests .  

                HR will just punt you for not having a license  , and if you're willing to take it on, you may get a unfair dismissal pay out if you can find a decent legal rep due to it being outside work hours , in which they're more than happy to pay to get rid of you. But either way I can assure you , any driving offence of this nature , you're toast. Seen it happen many times . Even losimg licence  for phone offences will get you chopped. In the real world , we have consequences. 

      • Good point Seraph.......
