Tom Starling

🔋 Full of energy, Starling is a star hooker…

The Australian put pen to paper on a three-year deal ahead of the 2027 season.

\Making his NRL debut with the Newcastle Knights in 2018 before moving to Canberra, he spent eight seasons with the Raiders and was a firm fan favourite.

During his NRL career, he made 156 appearances, scored 17 tries, won the 2025 NRL minor premiership and represented the Prime Minister’s XIII.

At Canberra, Starling established himself as a leader and one of the NRL’s most exciting hookers, combining an incisive running game with sharp service from the ruck and a highly competitive attitude.
