The Melbourne Storm have once again tapped into New Zealand's rugby talent pool, this time securing the services of rugby sevens sensation Moses Leo.

Following in the footsteps of fellow Kiwi convert Will Warbrick, Leo is set to make his mark in the NRL with the Storm.

Leo, who represented New Zealand at the Paris Olympics, may not have brought home a medal but his skills on the field caught the eye of the Storm recruitment team.

Joining forces with Warbrick, who claimed silver at the 2021 Olympics in Tokyo before making the switch to league, Leo is ready to light up the NRL with his versatility in the backline.

With 82 sevens matches under his belt for New Zealand, Leo is a player who can slot into multiple positions, from wing to fullback.

While he will continue fulfilling his commitments with the NZRU in 2025, the Storm have high hopes for his impact when he arrives in Melbourne for the 2026 season.

Just as Warbrick has become a try-scoring machine for Melbourne, Leo is poised to add his own flair to the Storm's attack.

With their sights set on success, the Storm are banking on Leo's speed, skill, and determination to propel them to glory in the NRL arena.
