Nearly a year after Canberra Raiders player Tom Starling was cleared of assaulting police in a pub brawl, two officers have been charged over the incident.
Struggling Canberra are already looking to save their NRL season, needing a lift across the park to match the undefeated Broncos in Brisbane on Saturday night.
Charges against Canberra Raiders player Tom Starling have been dismissed after a magistrate found police breached their duty when they "assaulted" the NRL star.
A security officer has testified that he never called Tom Starling's mother a slut before the Canberra Raiders' hooker was punched by police in a brawl.
