One of the favourites for the 2025 Dally M Medal, Isaiya Katoa, has revealed that he will one day represent Cook Islands at International level but a NSW Blues State of Origin jersey might come first.
The Dolphins star narrowly missed out on the 2025 Beetson Raudonikis Medal and will play for Tonga in a few weeks time.
“Origin is definitely a goal of mine,” Katoa told Channel Nine’s 100% Footy.
“I’m pretty fortunate but also a little unfortunate to have such great players in front of me in Nathan Cleary, Mitchell Moses, Jarome Luai, Nicho Hynes is in there as well.
“It’s still a goal of mine though to hopefully play for the Blues one day.”
