Josh Addo-Carr Tests Positive for Cocaine

Rugby league star Josh Addo-Carr has faced a tumultuous week after his secondary drug test for cocaine returned a positive result following a roadside check in Wentworth Point, Sydney. Initially tested on Friday night, Addo-Carr, who has adamantly denied using cocaine, was informed by police of the positive result from his second sample later that day. His lawyer, Elias Tabchouri, confirmed that they are working on determining a path forward and addressing the situation. The Canterbury Bulldogs winger has voluntarily stood down from participating in the team's upcoming finals match, which marks their first appearance in six years. Bulldogs general manager Phil Gould has indicated that should the positive result be confirmed, Addo-Carr's future with the club could be at risk, as there are established sanctions for such violations. Addo-Carr's legal team has noted that he is seeking clarity on the situation amidst ongoing investigations.
