Scott free to train after not-guilty plea
« on: January 31, 2020, 04:56:52 PM »
Canberra Raiders recruit Curtis Scott is free to return to training with the NRL club opting not to impose any sanctions following his "not guilty" plea on Friday. The Green Machine will anxiously await NRL chief executive Todd Greenberg's decision next week, with the league boss yet to decide whether he'll enact the no-fault, stand-down policy. Scott appeared in Sydney's Downing Centre Local Court on Friday, where he pleaded not guilty to six charges - including two counts of assaulting a police officer. His lawyer, Danny Eid, said they would fight the charges "to the last breath" and the allegations were "contextually false". Scott will return to court on March 20, a week after the Raiders' opening game of the NRL season - against the Gold Coast Titans at Canberra Stadium on March 13.
