There is good news on Mose Masoe who features in truly spectacular fashion in this Saturday’s retro match against the North Sydney Bears.
Mose was badly injured playing for Hull Kingston Rovers in a UK Super League match, and he has begun to make significant progress in his recovery process. This link will give you the latest news on Mose’s situation:
