Chad Townsend, the North Queensland Cowboys' newest recruit, has officially sealed the deal for the 2025 NRL season.

The announcement, long rumored in the rugby league community, confirms Townsend's move from the Sydney Roosters on a one-year contract.

With the departure of Luke Keary, the Roosters are counting on Townsend's experience to bolster their roster for the upcoming season.

Roosters' Head of Recruitment, Daniel Anderson, expressed his excitement about adding Townsend to the team, acknowledging his one-time premiership win with the Cronulla Sharks in 2016.

Townsend, a seasoned player with 257 NRL games under his belt, made his mark with the Cowboys in 2022, leading them to the Preliminary Finals in his debut season with the club.

The stage is set for Townsend to bring his skills and expertise to the Cowboys as they aim for success in the 2025 season.

With a history of clutch performances and strategic gameplay, Townsend is poised to make a significant impact on his new team.

Fans can expect thrilling plays and strong leadership from the seasoned halfback as he dons the Cowboys jersey later this year.

Giddy up!
