Josh Addo-Carr has paid the price for his role in a brawl at the Koori Knockout competition, ousted from Australia’s squad for the Pacific Test series by Penrith fullback Dylan Edwards. On Friday, the NRL integrity unit finalised its investigation into an incident that took place on the NSW Central Coast last Saturday at the 51st edition of the Indigenous football competition.
Legend of Nathan Cleary’s grand final performance grows. Video footage appeared to show Canterbury winger Addo-Carr involved in a fight that broke out during a game between Walgett Aboriginal Connection and his Sydney All Blacks team. The length of Addo-Carr’s suspension will not be finalised until he responds to the breach notice issued to him by the NRL. But he appears unlikely to feature in the Test series that begins with a match against Samoa in Townsville next Saturday night.
