West Wales make double swoop

Drew Darbyshire

West Wales have made two new signings ahead of the 2020 season.

Samoan centre Bailey Liu arrives at the Raiders from the Central Queensland Capras.

He said: “It’s a great opportunity for myself to experience a different culture with a club that has massive potential to grow in the game.

“I will hopefully bring a professional and serious approach to the Raiders this season. It’s great to be thrown straight in to things and training on my second day in Wales, it was good to meet the squad and staff and I look forward to meeting more of the new recruits throughout this week.”

Prop Christopher Davies has committed to West Wales for 2020. He has earned one cap for Wales and spent time in the Crusaders academy.

Davies said: “I signed for West Wales Raiders because I wanted to get back in to rugby league after playing it for years for the Celtic Crusaders.

“I also am working towards getting back into the Welsh squad at the end of the season. I am nearing my prime now so if I don’t give it 100% and my full commitment right now it will never happen so I’ve got to make it happen again this year.”
