The Wests Tigers have announced the re-signing of Matt Eisenhuth on a two-year deal that will keep him at the club until at least the end of the 2019 season.
Since making his first-grade debut earlier this season Eisenhuth has become a regular in Wests Tigersโ NRL side, making 10 appearances and earning a spot in the run-on side while averaging an impressive 117 metres and 35 tackles per game.
The former Australian Schoolboy expressed his delight to remain at Wests Tigers.
โFor me, it was a pretty easy decision to extend my time here,โ Eisenhuth said.
โThis club stood by me and gave me a shot nobody else was and they rewarded me with a debut and constant first-grade, so in my mind, I wasnโt looking to go anywhere else.
โItโs been a long road and Iโve had some ups and downs,โ he said. โI think Iโve been improving week in and week out, so Iโm very happy to be here for the next couple of years.โ
Wests Tigers Head Coach Ivan Cleary said he was pleased to see Eisenhuth remain at the Club, and looked forward to watching him take the next step in his career.
"On and off the field Matt has shown that he encompasses the values that the Wests Tigers are all about,โ said Cleary. โIโm delighted that Matt will continue to develop his career here at Wests Tigers, heโll be a highly valued member of the team into the future.โ
Wests Tigers CEO Justin Pascoe echoed Clearyโs sentiments for Eisenhuthโs hard work and dedication.
โSince arriving at Wests Tigers, Matt has shown tremendous drive and desire to achieve what he has and Iโm thrilled to see him sign on here,โ Pascoe said.
โHe has overcome a lot to get to where he is in the NRL, Matt thoroughly deserved his chance and itโs pleasing to see him continue to grow as a player on and off the field.
โMatt is a quality young man and weโre very pleased to have him in our organisation,โ he said.
