Griffin Neame was signed to the Cowboys’ New Zealand Academy and moved to Australia prior to the 2019 season.

A workhorse middle forward, Neame enjoyed a stellar 2019 with the Townsville Blackhawks and was rewarded with a Junior Kiwis berth at the end of the season.

The Greymouth product spent the 2020 pre-season on a training block with the Cowboys before returning to the Blackhawks only to have the season cancelled by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Neame was selected to make his NRL debut against the Tigers in Round 22 of 2021 alongside Jeremiah Nanai.

The 22-year-old was named in the Kiwis extended squad for the 2021 Rugby League World Cup before making his International debut in the 2023 Pacific Championships.

Neame is contracted until the end of the 2025 season.
