Wallabies star Carter Gordon has turned his back on rugby and signed with the Gold Coast Titans in the NRL . The 23-year-old has played eight times for the Wallabies, including starting at No.10 at last year’s disastrous World Cup. Gordon has spent the past four seasons at the Rebels, but with the Melbourne-based franchise axed by Ruby Australia, the young gun was left without a contract.
“At 23, I feel like I had to take this opportunity now. “I’m under no illusions and understand that this will be a massive challenge. “I was really impressed with the Titans and the professionalism they displayed in our meetings. “I’ve loved my time with rugby as it’s given me the opportunity to represent my country which I’ll always appreciate.” Coach Des Hasler is looking forward to working with Gordon.
