Seems like he's a bit of a wild man later in his career.
Tested positive for recreational drugs a couple years ago.
We need another half, sign him up!
I'm surprised by this. The man bun gave that look of someone who had given up the barbequing and drink and was instead running yoga classes at a retreat in the Far North Queensland rainforest.

Was on Friday night as well. The same night they played manly
Looks like he could be in hot water. He informed Gus and the club saying the test came back negative, but NSW police revealed the test was positive, with further testing to be done to confirm it wasn’t a false positive.

Josh Addo-Carr under investigation for alleged failed roadside drug test
NRL star Josh Addo-Carr is under investigation by NSW Police after allegedly testing positive to cocaine during a roadside drug test over the weekend.
Addo-Carr, 29, is understood to have undergone a test when stopped by officers while leaving a captain’s run at Accor Stadium on Friday night, which returned an initial positive indication for drugs.
However Addo-Carr has not been charged with any offence, as further analysis is required on that test.
It is understood Addo-Carr informed his club Canterbury-Bankstown about the incident over the weekend, however there was confusion about the outcome of the test - with football boss Phil Gould claiming the test was “negative”.
“There is absolutely no truth to rumours that Josh had any issue. None whatsoever,” Gould posted on X (formerly Twitter) on Monday.
The club is understood to have sought answers from its star winger after being informed by The Daily Telegraph about the initial positive result.

In a statement, NSW Police said: “About 10.45pm on Friday, officers attached to Auburn Police Area Command were patrolling Baywater Drive, Wentworth Point, when they stopped a Toyota hatchback for random testing.”
“The driver - a 29-year-old man - was subject to roadside testing which allegedly returned a positive indication for cocaine. The sample has been sent for analysis.”
Police sources said that after Addo-Carr’s initial test returned a positive indication, he was subjected to a secondary test which is sent away for further analysis.
A third test is then usually carried out to confirm the initial test, however it is understood that before this could be carried out the officers who had pulled Addo-Carr over were required to urgently attend an emergency incident nearby.
A spokesperson for the NRL confirmed they were looking into the matter and were “liaising with the club”.
Gould tried to get ahead of the story on Monday after being contacted by media, claiming Addo-Carr had been stopped by police and had undergone a drug test but that the results were “negative”.
The club’s powerful football boss described the incident as simply being the latest on the NRL “rumour mill” and instead urged people to focus on the Bulldog’s upcoming return to “finals football”.
“In response to circulating rumours and now several media inquiries regarding Josh Addo-Carr,” Gould posted on X.
“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.”
Addo-Carr was sidelined during his side’s 6-44 loss to the North Queensland Cowboys on the weekend with a leg injury.
The club last week said he was expected to be fit to return for their finals clash against Manly, at Accor Stadium on Sunday afternoon.
A major operation targeting drug drivers, called Operation RAID (Remove All Impaired Drivers) was carried out across NSW roads over the weekend, with more than 470 alleged drug drivers detected.

When you look at this character from afar you can sort of tell he would like a good snort!
No surprises there, just hopefully he hasn't added to his teams capitulation.
A bit harder for the club to argue “nothing to see here” when the player fails a drugs test, administered by the police
