In a raw and emotional interview, NRL star Josh Addo-Carr has broken his silence on his time with the Canterbury Bulldogs, revealing the depth of his regret and the betrayal he felt during his tenure with the club.
“I regret ever playing for them,” Addo-Carr admitted, his voice filled with pain. “I gave everything I had to the Bulldogs—my passion, my energy, my pride. But in the end, I felt discarded, unappreciated, and betrayed.”
Known for his electrifying pace and charisma, Addo-Carr joined the Bulldogs with high hopes of bringing success to the struggling club. However, behind the scenes, the reality was far from what he expected.
“They told me I’d be a cornerstone of their rebuild, but all I got in return was broken promises and a lack of respect,” he said. “I tried to lead, to inspire, to show loyalty, but it felt like none of that mattered.”
The emotional toll of his experience at the Bulldogs is something Addo-Carr carries with him. “I’ll never forgive them for how they treated me. Loyalty should go both ways, but I was left feeling like just another player to them—not the person or the leader I tried to be.”
Now, as Addo-Carr looks to the future, he’s determined to find a place where he’s truly valued. “I’ve learned a lot from my time there—lessons about loyalty, trust, and knowing my worth. It’s time for a fresh start, and I’ll never look back.”
For Bulldogs fans, his confession is a sobering reflection on the club’s struggles to retain and support key players. For Addo-Carr, it’s a step toward healing and finding the respect he deserves.
