Anyone know where he has been the last few months?

popped up again last weekend back playing for the Fiji Silktails in the RMC

Another mysterious vanishing act- Yeh he was back playing Ron Massey Cup as a late run on team replacement - might have been injured?

I don't think the Roosters will be re-signing him past this season. On an extended bench/development type contract

Xavier Chatfield-Mooka has been playing Jersey Flegg in that Wing position - another player from the SG Ball team this year that the Roosters are very keen on

I did read on another site that the Silktails are to enter a team in the NSW Cup in either 2023/2024 something to do with maintaining the Aus Government sponsorship and funding for the team via the Pacific Aus Sports grants that they need to progress to a higher comp as part of this funding agreement.

There is an ongoing spat between the Silktails and the Fiji NRL as no current Silktails players were selected in the Fiji Bati 50 player provisional world cup squad.

Wasn't he supposed to be the next best thing to come out of Fiji, that's died in the backside, chooks need to get their recruiting back on track, they have made a few dud ones lately.

Yet to debut but he was out for 2 or so months with a knee injury. Not sure he will figure in the 17 this year going forward. either.

Based off the limited bits of him I saw, he was an exceptionally quick and powerful runner. His issue was that his knowledge of the game appeared average, he was lazy and defensively, whilst he wasnt a turnstile, still was a bit of a shirt grabber

Yeh limited league game experience coming from a purely Rugby Background - Hard to say whether they will re-sign him especially when they have some up and coming wingers in Jack Mossman and Xavier Chatfield-Mooka who are a fair way ahead of him in overall league skills level- Not Forgetting Cooper Toy either who is a few years away

7 tries in 7 games for the Bears, unfortunately he seemed to let in double that.

I would be happy to keep him and see if he develops defensively as he is still eligible for Flegg
