Biography:

Tom Starling entered his fifth season with the Raiders in 2023 and remained to be one of the most consistent performers each week.

Starling built a great dummy-half combination with teammate Zac Woolford, typically coming on to replace Woolford and provide some spark out of hooker late in the game.

Starling had arguably his best game of the season against his former club Newcastle in the 2023 finals series, scoring a memorable try in the dying stages to send the game to Golden Point.
