AUSTRALIAN Rugby Sevens Olympian Locky Miller has signed a two year deal for the Cronulla Sharks.

Since returning home to Coffs Harbour, Miller has been evaluating his options for the next stage of his career and it is the opportunity to play in the NRL that has proved irresistible.

“I am feeling very excited that a dream I had as a junior is becoming a reality.

“Next steps are preseason and getting set up in Cronulla, preseason starts on the fourth of November so (I have) a couple of weeks before it all kicks off.

“I huge thank you to Ignite Sports, I can’t wait to get to Cronulla and get started,” said Miller.

The versatile playmaker scored four tries in the Rugby Sevens event at the Tokyo Olympics, with two tries against South Africa, one against Canada and one against the Republic of Korea.

Miller’s side bowed out to gold medal winners Fiji in the quarter finals.

At the prime age of 27, Miller’s lightning pace, skill, strength and agility will be an asset to the Sharks back line.
