Re: OFFICIAL: Tom Starling signs two year deal with Raiders
Hope its a case of a brawl happening, he got dragged into it.
The cops and riot squad came in.
And abit of hitting/pushing/shoving the wrong person being a police officer after being grabbed and pulled away going into some sort of self defence head mode.
Because well if its as big of a brawl as they are claiming you wouldnt know whos hitting who and whos grabbing who. And starling might of hit or done something to the police thinking it was someone else, and they then layed into him.
Havent seen photos of him yet.

That link wasnt up when i posted it , sounds like a case of them seeing their mate get dragged away and they came to try and "help" him, which is stupid.Raiders666 wrote:Read the link above
Also sounds like the "assault" of the police wasnt acturally an assault. But more them being dicks andtrying to hinder.

I'm totally having a guess but the damage to the cops hand and the damage to Starlings face may or may not be linked

Wait and see as usual. Looks like next stop at court is January. Can’t imagine it will be a stand down issue unless I’ve missed something? (11 year in jail rule) but just have to make sure his head is in right place.
Whatever the circumstances though, stupidity to put ones self in this situation. These young fellas need solid people around them when out on the drink so that if things do go south a calm head can de-escalate and vacate ASAP.

Hmmmm, interesting. Do you suspect Ben Cummins might be somehow involved?Botman wrote:The boys in blue couldnt get our dear Curtis, so they've come for Tom!
Re: Canberra Raiders hooker Tom Starling charged with assaulting police
It's disappointing that he put himself in a position where these sorts of allegations could be made. No doubt that the truth will come out eventually one way or the other. I'll reserve my judgement until then.
Re: Canberra Raiders hooker Tom Starling charged with assaulting police
I imagine that Starling had Cummins back. Just like he has ours.The Nickman wrote:Hmmmm, interesting. Do you suspect Ben Cummins might be somehow involved?Botman wrote:The boys in blue couldnt get our dear Curtis, so they've come for Tom!

Going to somewhere called the "Shady Palms Bar Restaurant" was his first mistake.

Re: Canberra Raiders hooker Tom Starling charged with assaulting police
5 assault police charges looks unusual/like a good old fashioned load up- according to detective sergeant AFP mate of mine. It's the NSW police default reaction to when they go a bit overboard, we saw it with Scott. So I'll remain skeptical this time. $90 million in payouts it's coming from nowhere.
As it is, Starling will get a fine and probably a few weeks suspension just for being involved and has probably ceded the bench hooking role to Havilii for the early season.

Re: Canberra Raiders hooker Tom Starling charged with assaulting police
I've got 247 people willing to sign affidavits that the crowd were calling for police to stop hitting him (Starling) but Cummins popped up and said, "No, six again" and they just laid into him afresh.Botman wrote: ↑December 6, 2020, 10:52 amI do... nowThe Nickman wrote: ↑December 6, 2020, 10:30 amHmmmm, interesting.

Re: Canberra Raiders hooker Tom Starling charged with assaulting police
You would presume the club has cctv footage ( then again it is called the shady palms) and the cops will have body cam going
Tbh I am surprised noone has leaked smart phone footage by now
For me it comes down to why did he intervene? Were the cops heavy handed with his mate? And what he actually did.
Once again i will wait till the truth comes out before I tar and feather him

Re: Canberra Raiders hooker Tom Starling charged with assaulting police
Shocking stuff. Hard to think there's any way Starling comes out of this - we all said the same about Scott though.
Tbh I am more concerned about this development:
"Reynolds will link with Wests Tigers 2005 grand final winning fullback Josh Hodgson who has just taken over as head coach at Hull FC."

A bashed-up Canberra hooker Tom Starling will claim that he never threw a punch and was not acting aggressively
A bashed-up Canberra hooker Tom Starling will claim that he never threw a punch and was not acting aggressively, before he was charged with assaulting police during a Saturday night brawl on the Central Coast.
On the night of the incident Starling was with family and friends — including Knights duo Kalyn Ponga and Connor Watson — for Watson’s brother’s 21st at an establishment in Avoca. Starling’s brother claims he heard a distasteful comment which he understands was towards his mother, which triggered an altercation.

Out with family, including his brother and mother. Not the usual boofhead scenario it seemed.
I’d put my money on more embarrassment coming NSW Police’s way.
