I'd imagine that to be Liam Ackland from NZ, and not Liam Pickering (who might be his manager already??)

Just on Liam Ackland. His father - it's been reported is John Ackland - who coached the Samoa RL side at the recent RLWC. (and also assistant coaches at the Warriors).

A recent article here
[link: http://www.stuff.co.nz/sundaynews/4762398a15599.html]
illustrates his advocacy for RL in Samoa and Tonga in particular. And his reputation as being a 'visionary'.

Interesting that his son has 'flown the coop'. But, also, that Ackland senior, via his son, would have a greater appreciation for Aust Footy in the Pacific Islands region.

Thanks, yes, a mistake. Corrected now. Had it right in the previous article, must've switched the names in my head - if only there was an editor to edit the editor!
