Melbourne skipper Cameron Smith believes former Canberra fullback Josh Dugan needs a club rich in culture and leadership to help him make his NRL return.

Dugan had his $650,000-a-season contract with the Raiders torn up after breaking team protocol which was revealed after the fullback posted a photo on Instagram of him drinking while flipping the bird.

Most recently on the same social media network, he told an abusive fan to "end themselves" which cost him a lucrative deal with Brisbane.
Troubled and without a club, Smith said on NRL360, he needs guidance.
"He needs a good club," Smith said.
"He needs a club where there's good leaders around him, a strong coach (and) a good culture. I'm not too sure what the culture's like at the Raiders, I've never played there so I'm not going to criticise them.
"He just needs some guidance I think. He's still only a young fella. First of all he needs to sort himself out off the field before he even thinks about getting back and playing footy."
When posed the question if Dugan joined Melbourne, what would be the first thing Smith would do, the hooker replied; "I'd be sitting down with him first up and finding out a little bit about him and what makes him tick.
"Then I'd be saying to him 'you need to sort yourself out with where you want to go with this club. What are your goals here and work hard and get back into first grade.
"You wouldn't be chucking him back into first grade because there's no reward… you've got to earn the respect of the players around you and some responsibility back.
"He's got it in him, there's no doubt he's got it in him but at the moment he's not there."
Reformed NRL bad boy Willie Mason says the simple solution to avoiding these situations is by being smart when using social media.
"Anyone who follows you can say whatever they want to you in 140 characters," Mason said.
"...I've copped a fair bit of personal stuff on Twitter and Instagram. I just block them. I probably say 'whatever you tool', give them a little spray back and block them.
"I wouldn't go to the next level because it can really get to you and start affecting you and you lose sleep… they got into Dugan and it's happened to me but it's how you handle it.
"All you have to do is block a person… If you want to keep arguing other people get involved and start smashing him and at the moment Dugan doesn't have a leg to stand on… he's cost himself a $2 million contract."
