Qld Reds player Jock Campbell (King's 2014-15) was recently named Rookie of The Year.
Coach Brad Thorn commented on Jock's achievement...
"At 24, it was good to see a man from club rugby and NRC with Queensland Country come into our program.
He was rewarded for his hard work when he made his Queensland debut against the Bulls in Pretoria.
Jock played the remaining nine games for us and grew in confidence each match. As a group, we congratulate Jock on this achievement."
