Adam MacDougall is one of the most popular and richest Rugby League Player who was born on May 8, 1975 in Sydney, Sydney, Australia. Adam “Mad Dog” MacDougall (born 8 May 1975) is an Australian author, businessman and former professional rugby league footballer who played in the 1990s and 2000s. A New South Wales State of Origin and Australian international representative centre and wing, he could also play fullback and spent the majority of his career at the Newcastle Knights, with whom he won the 1997 and 2001 Premierships. He has also played for the Sydney Roosters and South Sydney Rabbitohs. His brothers, Luke MacDougall, Ben MacDougall and Scott MacDougall have also played in the NRL. His father, Gil MacDougall, played for the Balmain Tigers and Western Suburbs Magpies NSWRFL.
In 1998, MacDougall made his representative debut for New South Wales rugby league team after a stellar start to the season.
He also played in Australia’s victory in the 2000 World Cup Final. In round 20 2001, MacDougall equalled Darren Albert’s club record of four tries in a match during Newcastle’s 37–30 victory over the New Zealand Warriors at Ericsson Stadium. MacDougall won a second premiership with the Knights, playing on the wing in their 2001 NRL Grand Final victory over the Parramatta Eels. After that he went on the 2001 Kangaroo tour.
Arguably MacDougall’s best seasons came in 2000 and 2001, where he scored 30 tries in 41 games and starred in NSW comprehensive 3–0 series win against Queensland in 2000.
On 8 July 1998, MacDougall tested positive to stimulants ephedrine and amfepramone. MacDougall’s A and B samples both also recorded an epitestosterone to testosterone level greater than the allowable 6:1 ratio – indicating the possible use of steroids. On 28 August he pleaded guilty to using one banned stimulant and was found to have inadvertently used another and received an 11-match ban along with teammates Robbie O’Davis and Wayne Richards who each received 22-week bans. It was revealed during his appeal that MacDougall had suffered a severe head injury in 1993 that damaged his pituitary gland and it was essential that he take prescribed medication, called Sustanon 250, which included a banned steroid. This medication restored normal hormone levels in his body and without it, he would suffer potentially serious side effects and not be able to lead a normal life, let alone play football.
