He made his last game for Germany against a Welsh Districts XV on 24 February 2007. He has also played for the Germany national rugby league team in 2007, being threatened with a ban by the German rugby union coach if he did so.[3]

For the 2009-10 season, he moved to the Heidelberger TV, a team just relegated from the 2nd Rugby-Bundesliga, to help the club return to the second division.[4]
