Currently playing for The Manly Marlins (1st Grade) in the Sydney Intrust Shute Shield competition, while also training as a member of the NSW Waratahs 7’s Team. Looking for an opportunity to play professional rugby overseas. I have 5 years experience playing as a utility back for first grade at Manly and looking for a professional contract in JapanI believe I would be a good fit in any team with my ball running ability and ability to beat defenders and score tries. I have been the top try scorer for Manly Marlins in 2019/20 and believe I could carry that on with any team I join. I have played rugby 7s at the national level for the NSW Waratahs and Australia Universities. I believe I would be a great fit in Japanese rugby as I have played z lot of rugby 7s at a high level and would suit the high speed/running game that is played there.
