SYDNEY :Former Australia flyhalf Carter Gordon's spell in rugby league came to an end on Monday when he signed for Super Rugby team the Queensland Reds after being released by the Gold Coast Titans.

Gordon made his name with some bright performances for the Melbourne Rebels and was the only flyhalf named in Eddie Jones' Wallabies squad for the calamitous 2023 World Cup campaign.

Chastened by that experience, Gordon defected to the 13-man code only for a rare spinal injury to restrict him to just one National Rugby League game at the end of the recently concluded season.

"I'm stoked to return to the game I grew up playing and loving as a kid, especially with the opportunity to represent the team I grew up supporting," the 24-year-old Queenslander said in a statement.
