Playing career
A noted speedster, Frew placed second to Newcastle Knights flyer Darren Albert in a rugby league sprint for The NRL Footy Show in 1999 at ES Marks Athletics Field, a race that featured other selected players from the NRL including Justin Loomans (3rd - Souths), Michael De Vere (Brisbane) and Matthew Rieck (Penrith).
Arrest
Frew was arrested in September 2012 and charged with the blackmail of a 58-year-old Lane Cove man. The man repeatedly gave Frew money as he was concerned that Frew would send information of an alleged sexual abuse of Frew's partner (at a time she was an underage prostitute) to his friends suggesting the victim was a pedophile.
Police say Frew and another woman drove the man to ATMs between 16 June and July 2012, forcing him to withdraw thousands of dollars from ATMs.
The court heard Frew and his co-accused, a 38-year-old woman, went to the man's house, where he lived with his elderly father, and demanded money, when searched by police, the drug ice was found in his anus.
