JUNIOR SPORT - My Hero

Hi I'm Luke Jones and my sporting hero is my second cousin Stacey Jones.
I'm 13-years-old and I'm from Sydney, Australia, but I've been living in Kaitaia for a year now and I play for the Northland under-13 rugby league team.
Stacey plays for Les Catalans in France but most people know him from the Warriors and the Kiwis. He announced his retirement recently, which was a bit of a surprise because I thought he would play for another couple of seasons.
I like the way that Stacey plays, the style of his game, the way he kicks and he's never scared.
I think his biggest achievement was getting the Warriors to the grand final.
If he showed up in Kaitaia I don't know what we'd do. I don't need his autograph because he's my cousin but I'm looking forward to meeting him sometime.
