Sacked Canberra playmaker Todd Carney is in trouble again, charged by police with malicious damage after an alleged incident in Goulburn last weekend.

The former NRL bad boy was allegedly captured on CCTV cameras jumping on several cars in Goulburn, south of Sydney.

Carney and another man have been arrested and charged and will appear in court next month.

Police viewed the security footage before making the arrests.

The latest incident comes just a week before Carney was due to play for Atherton Roosters in the Cairns and District rugby league competition in an attempt to save his career.

With the NRL refusing to register Carney for 2009, he signed with English club Huddersfield, only to have his visa application rejected due to drink driving offences.
