“He has been playing at professional club Ealing RFC but he wanted a new challenge and wanted to come and have a trial.

“He has impressed me with his attitude and he has good skills and will be a good addition in the centres or second row.

“He is still new to rugby league but he is improving all the time and I think he will develop into a decent player at this level.”
