The National Rugby League (NRL) today issued Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs player Josh Addo-Carr with a breach notice alleging a breach of the NRL Code of Conduct.

Addo-Carr was issued with a Penalty Notice by NSW Police earlier this month for the offence of ‘Presence of prescribed illicit drug in person’s oral fluid, blood or urine’ while driving a motor vehicle.

The breach notice alleges that Addo-Carr has engaged in conduct which is against the law and has brought the game and his club into disrepute.

Addo-Carr has 5 business days to respond to the breach notice.
