Following the separation between Ronan Michael and Bradford Bulls earlier this month, questions circulated regarding the Irish player’s next destination.

Might Halifax pursue the prop forward as they reconstructed their roster following their restructuring last month?

Could he make a comeback at Keighley, having previously spent a period on loan at Cougar Park during the earlier part of the campaign?

Alternatively, did he still possess prospects within Betfred Super League at a club such as York, where supporters remember him fondly after two productive seasons?

However, he remained neither in Yorkshire nor within British rugby league, instead deciding to relocate more than 10,000 miles abroad.

Michael has made the move to Australia and joined Cairns Rugby League organization Innisfail Leprechauns to advance his career.

Additionally, he will feature for Queensland Cup team Northern Pride, who maintain an affiliation with Innisfail, through a dual registration arrangement.

Beyond his rugby league pursuits, the Irish player has gained recognition for his passion for coffee, which inspired a well-known terrace chant during his time with Bulls.

Consequently, it comes as little surprise that he is also immersing himself in that domain.

In addition to his sporting responsibilities, he will be monitoring Arked Coffee from abroad.

He has established this business venture together with his former Bulls colleagues Joe Keyes and Ethan Ryan.

Arked specializes in producing specialty coffee blends, with merchandise expected to hit store shelves shortly.
