    Goulburn Bulldogs president John Sykes received a 15-year ban for abusive conduct, resigning amid a major rugby league controversy.

    The Canberra Times

    Goulburn Bulldogs president John Sykes has been forced to resign due to NSW Rugby League's whopping ban, with Sykes suspended for 10 years - until May 24, 2036 - before going onto a good-behaviour bond.
