Former Cowboys forward Scott Moore has been handed a 23-month jail sentence after an alcohol and drugs-fuelled rampage in England.
In October 2016, Moore was arrested in greater Manchester after a high-speed chase where he drove at speeds of more than 160 km per hour.
The 30-year-old evaded capture and assaulted police officers, after being tasered six times.
One police officer needed surgery as a result of his injuries.
