    David Polkinghorne

    Tom Starling faced assault allegations after an incident with police; now two officers are charged in connection with the altercation.

    The Canberra Times

    It's something that's always going to be there against Tom Starling's name - accusations of assaulting police and resisting arrest.

    Regardless of what happens to the two NSW police officers now charged with assaulting him, an internet search of the Canberra Raider will always come up with allegations against him.

    Evan Huw Prowse and Steven Lockwood Brown will appear in a Sydney court on Tuesday to face allegations five-and-a-half years after the incident occurred at the Shady Palms bar on the Central Coast.

    Starling was celebrating at a 21st birthday party on that December night in 2020 when it all went horribly wrong.

    ‘Too passive’: Todd Payten slams poor attitude in North Queensland Cowboys reality check

    Cowboys coach Todd Payten criticized his team's poor performance in a 26-12 loss, marking a disappointing reality check.

    The Australian

    A frustrated Cowboys coach Todd Payten said Sunday afternoon's 26-12 defeat in the nation's capital was a reality check as North Queensland tumbled out of the top eight.

    The Cowboys missed 52 tackles and made 11 errors as the Raiders dominated, with Canberra halfback Ethan Sanders providing some scoreboard salvation by missing five of his six conversion attempts.

    Canberra scored three tries in consecutive sets to storm out to a 14-0 lead early in the first half and never looked back as the Cowboys failed to mount any genuine comeback.

    Payten blasted his team for heading into the game with a poor attitude.

    "I thought they just ran harder and tackled harder from the first whistle to the last," Payten said.
