In a move that's sure to get fans cheering, South Sydney Rabbitohs' outside back Tyrone Munro has committed to the club for the long haul, signing on until the end of 2027.
The 20-year-old, who was originally set to become a free agent in 2025, has decided to extend his stay at the Maroubra den by two more years.
Munro's presence on the field will be crucial as he becomes a key player in Wayne Bennett's game plan upon the coach's return for a second go-around with the club.
Despite being plagued by injuries for much of the 2024 season, Munro made his mark in 2023 as an 18-year-old rookie.
While he was poised to take on a leading role as a winger last year, setbacks like a collarbone and shoulder injury limited his playing time to just a few games.
However, Munro's triumphant comeback towards the end of the season, starting in Round 24, has left fans and critics alike singing his praises.
With this promising young talent locked in for the foreseeable future, the Rabbitohs are looking to build on their strong foundations and push towards even greater success down the rugby league track.
