Former Melbourne Storm forward Tristan Powell has made a move to a new NRL team, continuing his rugby league journey.

Powell, who was one of nine players to leave the Storm at the end of the season, showcased his talents in the QLD Cup with the Brisbane Tigers in 2022 and 2023, earning himself the title of Tigers Forward of the Year in 2023.

A former QLD Maroons representative at the U16s and U18s level, Powell made his NRL debut against the North Queensland Cowboys in Round 26.

In that game, he put in a solid performance with 113 running metres off 12 hit-ups, 22 tackles, and 44.8 post-contact metres.

According to a tweet from Ted Roker of 10News, Powell has scored himself a train and trial deal with the Brisbane Broncos for the 2025 NRL season.

He has already been spotted at the club's pre-season training, ready to make his mark in his new team.
