Tom Starling hopes the chance to start the year free of legal complications will help him discover his best form, vowing to repay the Raiders after the club stood by him through his off-field ordeal.
This pre-season is the first in three years that the 25-year-old won't have charges or court appearances haunting him as he chases his NRL dream.
Last year Starling was cleared of the remaining charges against him for two separate pub incidents in 2020 and 2021.
