ACT Policing investigates allegations against Canberra coach Ashley Barnes, whose appointment was blocked.
ACT Policing is investigating allegations against the Canberra coach whose appointment was blocked by the governing body.
The Canberra Times can reveal the police were investigating an alleged incident involving Ashley Barnes that occurred at a licensed club in Civic in September last year.
It comes after the Woden Valley Rams signed Barnes as head coach for the 2026 Canberra Raiders Cup season - only for the NSW Rugby League to step in and prevent him from being registered.
