FORMER Warrington Wolves scrum half Chris Sandow is making headline news in Australia after being filmed fighting on the streets of his hometown Cherbourg.

Channel 7 News are reporting that Sandow has been charged with a public nuisance offence and is due to appear in court on January 10.

Scrum half Sandow, who squared up with ex-Catalans Dragons half back Todd Carney in a charity boxing match last month, walked out on his Wire contract in November.
