The Sydney Roosters are pleased to announce that Daniel Tupou has signed an extension to remain with the club until the end of the 2015 season. 21 year-old Tupou expressed his delight at extending his contract with the club. �I�m really enjoying being a part of the Roosters. I�m learning so much and I wanted to stay a Rooster and build a career here. �I still have lots of room to improve and I hope to continue to learn and hopefully secure my opportunity to play some good football for the club.� Roosters Chief Operating Officer Football, Brian Canavan, was also delighted to have Tupou locked in to the Club�s long-term plans. �Daniel is an exciting young talent and has been a wonderful asset to the club both on and off the field. Tall, strong and with great footwork, Daniel has the ability to grab some AFL type marks and become a real crowd favourite. He has applied himself diligently across all aspects of professional football and we look forward to him continuing to be a key contributor in the years to come.� Tupou played three NRL games in 2012, one of which he scored a hat-trick of tries against the Wests Tigers in Round 25, and was named NSW Cup Winger of the Year. |
