The Warriors have confirmed the signing of second-rower Thomas Fletcher from the South Sydney Rabbitohs.

The 22-year-old has signed a three-year contract, keeping him at the club to the end of the 2029 season.

The youngster has made seven first-grade appearances over the past two seasons, scoring one try, which came against the Dragons in August 2025.

However, Fletcher has extensive New South Wales Cup experience, scoring 11 tries in 38 appearances.

Warriors general manager recruitment, pathways and development Andrew McFadden called the new signing a quality back rower who has the chance to build his career with the New Zealand-based side.

“We’ve had some back rowers who have moved on in Kayliss Fatialofa, Marata Niukore and Morgan Gannon,” McFadden said.

“Thomas boosts our resources there and has the opportunity to create a future here in the same way Jackson Ford has.”

In 2022, Fletcher made his representative debut with Australian Schoolboys, featuring alongside current NRL players Keano Kini, Isaiya Katoa, Blaize Talagi and Josh Papalii.

This signing comes days after fullback Taine Tuaupiki committed to the Warriors to the end of 2029, having signed his second contract extension in nine months.
