“A couple of injuries have stalled him throughout his career but when he has been fit to play he has proven that he can be one of the most destructive outside backs in the game.
“He has been part of winning squads throughout his NRL career and has played Test football.
“We’re looking forward to having him join our squad this pre-season and seeing him push for first grade selection on a weekly basis.”
