Returning to Sydney, he continued to play cricket in the Sydney Cricket Association, but has (at the end of season 2014/15) been suspended a record ten times for a wide range of Code of Conduct Breaches mostly involving crude and/or offensive verbal attacks on opposing players and umpires. At the end of the 2014/15 season McLaughlan moved away from Sydney Grade Cricket taking up a role playing in the First Grade competition in Newcastle. Within only a few games of that season's start he was once again in hot water with match officials being cited for a range of abuse of umpire issues.[6][7][8]
