In a move that could be described as a real "try-scoring blitz," the Canberra Raiders have secured a rising star fullback from the sunny state of Queensland.

Sylas Simon, who lit up the field for the Norths Devils and earned the prestigious title of Mal Meninga Cup Player of the Year, is being hailed as the next Reece Walsh in the making.

Considered one of Queensland's most promising talents, Simon had caught the eye of not just the Brisbane Broncos, but also the Raiders and Dolphins.
