The rise of former Mackay Cutters team-mates and house-mates Nicho Hynes and Aaron Booth helped inspire Jordan Grant to keep pursuing his NRL dream while forced to sit out last season due to COVID-19.
Grant, who made his NRL debut alongside Hynes and Booth in Melbourne’s 48-4 defeat of Newcastle last Saturday, lived with the pair in 2018 but thought he’d never get to play with them again after they joined the Storm.
While Hynes and Booth were part of Melbourne’s 2020 premiership-winning squad, Grant spent the season in limbo as all second-tier competitions were cancelled.
Living in Brisbane, the 26-year-old worked as a bank teller and trained with former Wests Tigers hooker Manaia Cherrington in the hope of finally getting a chance to play in the NRL.
