Pre-season training has started for the three men’s team for the Roosters with the Hens to start this week under new coach Anita Hagarty.
Newly appointed A Grade coach Daniel Beazley has been in charge of the pre-season work assisted by Reserve Grade Coach Chris Perry and under 20 leaders Paul and Peter Horan.
Former Junior Roosters star Terry Connors has returned home after six years away playing in Townsville.
Whilst in Townsville, Connors attended Kirwan High where he reached a position in that school's top team.
In club football, the half five eight played five years for Brothers in Townsville representing that city in all grades.
He also represented Queensland in both under 12 and under 13 teams.
Last season Connors decided to switch clubs with a number of his mates and played with Souths in under 19.
2023 was also a big year for the talented utility inside back with him being selected as half for the Murri Queensland under 18 team who played a Samoan representative team in Brisbane.
“That was an experience,” Connors said.
“Some of them are big boys.”
Connors said he has moved back home to be with family and catch up with old mates.
“Since I was a youngster growing up, I have always wanted to be a Rooster,” Connors added.
Coach Daniel Beazley said the half would be a welcome addition to his squad which is coming together nicely.
