BREAKING: Troubled NRL star Curtis Scott sacked by Raiders

The Canberra Raiders have sacked centre Curtis Scott less than two seasons into a four-year deal in the nation’s capital.

He had not played in the NRL since Round 12 after an incident at a Canberra nightclub saw him charged by police with assault.

The NRL later sanctioned him with a $15,000 fine and three-game ban.

The Raiders concluded that incident along with prior misdemeanours involving Scott meant he had brought the club “into disrepute” and that they had no choice but to rip up his contract.

“The Canberra Raiders Board of Directors today decided to terminate the contract of Curtis Scott effective immediately,” the club said in a statement on Monday.

“The board carefully considered the statements made at the ‘show cause’ hearing with Curtis on August 17 and the material supplied afterward.

“The board decided that Curtis’ prior behaviour and recent assault charge has brought the club into disrepute, and they could not ignore this and the responsibilities that his NRL playing contract entails.

“The board said the club would continue to support Scott’s ongoing rehabilitation and it will be in contact with NRL Welfare in this regard.”

Along with the nightclub incident, Scott was also alleged to have assaulted two police officers when they found him passed out in early 2020 but those charges were dropped after bodycam footage was reviewed.

He did plead guilty to two charges of offensive behaviour though that happened previously on that night.

Scott had last week revealed how he signed himself up to Alcoholics Anonymous and underwent treatment with a psychiatrist in a bid to get his career and life back on track.


Scott had a forgettable 2019 season with the Melbourne Storm, relegated to Queensland Cup as he struggled to find consistent form.

He told foxsports.com.au at the time that the switch from Melbourne to Canberra would be a positive one as it would mean avoiding the “Sydney rat-race”.

“(Signing with Canberra) was to stay out of the Sydney rat-race and the Sydney fishbowl. It’s a good place to just concentrate on footy and at the moment, that’s the most important thing – apart from my family – that’s going on in my life,” Scott told foxsports.com.au this week.

“I would have had too many distractions in Sydney and it just would have been a little bit too full on. It would have been easier for me to go out and end up … not in trouble, but just not take footy as serious as I did when I moved away and focused on it.

“I had to pick if I wanted to go down the wrong road or the right road and that’s why I originally went to Melbourne – to get the best out of myself and my football.

“And it’s the same with the opportunity to go to Canberra. I’m older now and make better decisions but I also just think it’s the best place for me to get the most out of my football.”

I remember all the people defending him after last year's incident... what a dead set toolbag. Only 23, and his career potentially over.

There is some stiff competition. Duges, Ferguson and of course, the man-child famously banned from the entire city of Goulburn.
