It has been a homecoming of sorts for Brisbane-born Edrick Lee, who will continue his NRL career with the Dolphins next season 🐬
Lee said he was still trying to get used to training in the heat of the Sunshine State after spending the past decade in slightly cooler pre-season climes during stints at the Canberra Raiders, Cronulla Sharks and Newcastle Knights.
However, the chance to return home to where it all started at this stage of his career was appealing for Lee, despite having to make small adjustments.“I am from here, but have never done a pre-season here, so that's the biggest adjustment.Wayne Bennett and Edrick Lee during Origin camp with the Queensland Maroons.
With his career in limbo, he made a return to the field in Round 6 and later entered the record books when he became the first Knight to ever score five tries in a game.“Just to be a more consistent player and fingers crossed, touch wood, just to stay injury free,” Lee said when asked what his goals for 2023 were.
