Luke Keary is poised to make his debut for Ireland at the 2022 Rugby League World Cup in October. The Sydney Roosters five-eighth has informed Rugby League Ireland he wants to be considered for selection. Keary is eligible to play for Ireland through his father and was keen to represent his roots at the 2017 World Cup before injury forced his withdrawal. "We'll see how the next few weeks go but I've told the people I need to tell what my intentions are," he told reporters. "I've always had a connection there since I was a kid. Dad's family are still over there." "There are so many great NRL players putting their hands up to represent their heritage. I think it's great for our game," Keary said. "It's going to be a great World Cup." "They were good. They only just missed the finals and probably should have beaten PNG over there," Keary said. "Honestly, if I do get the chance to play for Ireland I would be super proud."
