He played most of his Super 12 Rugby on the Wing for the Nsw Waratahs. In his last season The Waratahs came 3rd in the Super 12, After this he Switched codes and played for the Rugby League team Manly Cannons in 2002. However this was short lived, at the end of the season he moved to French side Biarritz where he switched to centre. But after just one season decided to move to Northampton for the 04-05 Season. He was an asset to Northampton started 29 games for them that season, the most appearances of any player that season.
But yet again he had to move due to a certain, Carlos Spencer joining Northampton, who turned out to be a poor signing, due to Guinness Premiership rules you are allowed only one overseas player on the pitch at a time so he would not get much first team rugby. So moved to Cardiff Blues where he has had a successful spell so far, missing only a few games through injury and becoming a favourite amongst the Blues fans.
