The Raiders said in a statement that they were aware of the incident overnight and informed the NRL integrity unit.
Starling made 14 appearances and scored four tries for the Raiders in 2020.
When will these meat heads ever learn…..you can’t assault police officers, and being drunk is no excuse!!
Sure they can budgielegs . His teammate & centre at the Raiders did the same thing in a Sydney park. When he was found passed out , blind drunk by police.
He got only about a 3 match suspension & a slap on the wrist fine. Was all good to play last season.
The circumstances are quite different EastofDivide, and Curtis Scott wasn’t bothering anyone. The court ruled police acted inappropriately towards Scott. On the surface the charges against Starling look a lot worse, but we shall see what transpires. As they say…..money speaks all languages!
Unfortunately, Scott still assaulted police. Got away with it virtually ‘Scott-Free’…😁
Seems to be the thing to do , if you play for the Green Machine assault & battery squad.
@EastofDivide And the Chooks have a crystal clean rap sheet I suppose?
Jayden Nikorima – Drugs
Paul Carter – Drugs
SKD – Drugs
Willis Meehan – Assult and Battery
Using your logic I guess that means the thing to do if you join the Roosters you become a coke head and an assult battery squad…
Pick on the chooks all you like greenblooded. Doesn’t worry me at all. As I don’t support them either.
They’re just another buy a premiership club.
You were just assuming that I was a French Dressed Chickens supporter. Ha, Ha!!!
Who’s next in your assault & battery squad , to assault police or the general public? Or have you forgotten Wighton also assaulted several people in one night ? Also got away with that virtually ‘Scott-Free’.
All of their last names should be ‘Scott’. It fits well with the assaults & getting away with it. 👍
Greenblooded… The team has gotten a bit carried away with the Viking symbol haven’t they? The attacks on others should have been left to the original Vikings. They’ve been listening to that call to arms horn blowing too much! 😂
