Brad Thorn snaps up Kiwi Matt McGahan to boost Queensland Reds playmaker stocks GEORGINA ROBINSONGETTY IMAGES Former Harbour player Matt McGahan is heading to the Queensland Reds to continue his rugby career. Sydney-born former Melbourne Storm and Blues playmaker Matt McGahan has linked up with the Reds for next season. McGahan, 25, the New Zealand son of former Roosters and Kiwis rugby league captain Hugh McGahan, has signed a one-year deal to join Brad Thorn at Ballymore, bolstering Queensland's No10 stocks alongside Hamish Stewart. Selected for the New Zealand schoolboys in 2010, McGahan switched to follow in his father's footsteps in rugby league and spent three seasons in Melbourne with the Storm under 20 team. Also in Brisbane, the Queensland Rugby Union board is edging closer to confirming the permanent appointment of David Hanham to the role of chief executive.
