The Recruit

Papua New Guinean youth on the road for an AFL contract

The young lad from Hoskins, West New Britain, settled in Australia 3 years ago to chase his AFL dream, which is now at hand.

Jay Jay grew up in Port Moresby in Papua New Guinea as an only child. 

Being away from his family is hard for the cheeky and incredibly smiley Jay Jay, but he takes it all in his stride.

Despite being terrified of all the snakes and spiders, Jay Jay has settled in well to an Australian way of life.
