Rugby League: Hornets take Seta Tala on trial

Date published: 16 March 2018


Seta Tala has been given a trial at Rochdale Hornets after impressing for local amateurs, Rochdale Mayfield.

Tala, who has been a mainstay in the Mayfield first team for several years, has also represented Rochdale Cobras.

He is in line to feature against Normanton Knights in the fourth round of the Ladbrokes Challenge Cup on Saturday and adds his name to an illustrious list of Fijians that have represented Hornets including team mate and cousin, Joe Taira.

Hornest coach Alan Kilshaw said: "Seta is someone we have watched from afar for a while. He's fast and powerful with a lot of natural skill and he's impressed me and the lads in training.

"We will give him a run out on Saturday and see how he goes."
