Canberra Raiders' Tom Starling raises funds for childhood friend with severe spinal injury.
This off-season, Canberra Raiders star Tom Starling wasn't just busy training for his upcoming NRL campaign, he's also been rallying the community to help out a childhood mate in the fight of his life.
Starling has leaned on his sporting connections to try and raise funds for good friend, Patrick Wheatley, who tragically suffered a severe spinal injury falling off a horse on his Central Coast property in July last year.
With Roosters star Connor Watson, the Raiders hooker, his family and a few Central Coast friends put together a collection of sporting memorabilia to auction off and raise funds for Wheatley's recovery.
