We love the mighty Canberra Raiders
After having a clean-up on his shoulder during the off-season, Canberra Raiders coach Ricky Stuart is taking no risks with Corey Horsburgh as the NRL season draws near.
Horsburgh will miss the Raiders' first pre-season trial - against the Canterbury Bulldogs at Moruya on Sunday - due to shoulder soreness.
Stuart said they'd take a cautious approach with the young forward, who was named to start at lock against the Bulldogs.
Footy is back with one of the best games on the rugby league calendar - the All Stars clash - set to kick off in Rotorua at 3:45pm.
The annual clash between the Maori and Indigenous sides once again features some of the best players in the NRL, despite several late withdrawals.
Canberra Raiders star Tom Starling is considering suing NSW Police after the court described their officers' treatment of him as assault.
Starling was cleared of his involvement in a violent street fight, with magistrate Daniel Covington finding the police weren't acting in their duty when they punched him in the face multiple times.
The 25-year-old and his brothers Jackson, 26, and Josh, 21, brawled with NSW police officers at a Central Coast pub in December 2020.
