Canberra Raiders in 2007He has recently been named in the 70 man squad for indigenous Australia, and is a fair possibility of making it with the form he is in and many of the players like Greg Inglis, Justin Hodges and Johnathan Thurston probably representing Australia. Two of his main contenders will be Souths flyer Chris Sandow and Gold Coast veteran Scott Prince if he misses selection in the Australian side.
He was unlucky to miss out on the 2008 NRL finals series after Ben Rogers pounced on his position when he was forced out with an injured back.
