[edit] New Zealand Warriors

Anderson has carved a reputation for his tough tackling and good ball skills.

[edit] St Helens

Anderson signed St Helens in 2005 after the RFL refused to register him as a London Broncos player because of the London sides financial problems at the time.[1]

[edit] Warrington Wolves

He had a frustrating 2007, missing most of the campaign with injury. He will be joined at the Wolves in the 2008 season, by brother Louis Anderson, who has joined the club from New Zealand Warriors.
