Warriors playmaker Luke Metcalf has signed on a two-year contract extension.

The 25-year-old joined the Warriors from the Sharks in 2023 and has played 21 games for the club, including starting at five-eighth in the Warriors’ first two games this season.

“From the early conversations with him right through to now he has continued to impress us with his maturity and just his willingness to buy in to everything we are trying to build here at the One New Zealand Warriors.”

The revelation comes after the club extended 23-year-old hooker Freddy Lussick’s contract for two years, allowing him to stay with the Warriors until the end of 2026.

Zac Fulton, a Manly forward, has been released from his last year of contract to join the Bradford Bulls in the English second-tier competition.

Following a request from Fulton and his management, the 22-year-old will join Bradford for the duration of the 2024 Championship season.

The grandson of Manly icon Bob Fulton made one NRL appearance for the Sea Eagles in 2022 and recently represented the Indigenous All Stars in Townsville.

“We wish Zac all the best in the next chapter of his rugby league career and thank him for all of his efforts at Manly,” Sea Eagles CEO Tony Mestrov said.

Izack Tago, the Panthers’ two-time premiership winner, has signed a new three-year contract that will keep him at the club until the end of the 2028 season.

The announcement comes just two days before the 21-year-old is scheduled to play his 50th NRL game against the Eels at BlueBet Stadium on Friday night.

Since making his Panthers debut in 2021, the Panthers youngster has scored 24 tries in 49 top-flight games, won two NRL premierships, and played three Tests for Samoa.

“I’m overjoyed to re-sign with the club. Even though I’ve already been here for a few years, it’s nice to secure my future with my hometown club for another few years,” Tago added.

“Most of the team are Panthers juniors and we’ve all got a special relationship, so for me to stay here for as long as I can is something I’m excited about.”

Meanwhile, Bulldogs forward Max King has agreed to a new contract, which will keep him with the club until the end of the 2027 season.

The revelation comes after the club confirmed the signings of former Rabbitohs and Roosters Daniel Suluka-Fifita and former Kiwi international Zane Tetevano.

Suluka-Fifita, 24, was released by South Sydney from the final two years of his contract and will join Belmore on a two-year deal.

Tetavane, 33, joins the club after three years in the Super League with Leeds, including a stint with the Panthers in 2020.

The Dragons have released Paul Turner from the balance of his contract, effective immediately, to take up a new contract elsewhere.
