Valentine Holmes is one of the NRL’s most dynamic and versatile players and sits down with Nine's Marlee Silva.

Born in Townsville with proud Samoan heritage, he made his mark early with the Cronulla Sharks, playing a key role in their historic 2016 premiership win.

Known for his speed, skill, and game-changing ability, Val has represented Queensland and Australia at the highest level.

His journey also took him to the U.S., where he pursued an NFL dream before returning to the NRL with the North Queensland Cowboys.

Now a leader on and off the field, he continues to inspire with his passion and dedication to the game.
