Trevor Thurling (born 26 April 1984) is an Australian professional rugby league footballer for the Canberra Raiders of the National Rugby League competition (NRL). He primarily plays in the second-row or at prop.
Thurling was born in Queanbeyan, New South Wales and played his junior football with the Queanbeyan United Blues. While attending Dickson College in the Australian Capital Territory in 2001, Thurling was selected to play for the Australian Schoolboys team.[1] As 2004 NRL premiers, the Bulldogs faced Super League IX champions, the Leeds Rhinos in the 2005 World Club Challenge. Thurling played from the interchange bench in the Bulldogs' 32-39 loss. Thurling was involved in a car accident on 9 April 2009 in Sydney.[2] Police allege he was under the influence of alcohol at the time of the accident and the Canberra club stood Thurling down from his playing commitments.[2]
