[Madge]

Wests Tigers is delighted to announce that Brent Naden has extended his contract through until the end of the 2025 season.

Naden joined the club mid-season on an 18-month deal which has now been extended by a further two seasons.

Brent made his Wests Tigers debut in Round 11 against his former club Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs. He made his 50th NRL appearance in the team’s win over Brisbane in Round 20, and has scored four tries in his past three games.

Naden becomes the third outside back in less than a week to extend his stay at the club, joining Starford To’a and Asu Kepaoa.

Wests Tigers CEO, Justin Pascoe says the recent contract extensions are a sign of things to come.

“I’ve been saying for some time now that this club is in a position to go from strength to strength, and Brent sees that too."

We are really happy to have Brent and his family on board long term."
CEO, Justin Pascoe

"I know Brent has enjoyed his brief time as a Wests Tigers player, and we all look forward to seeing him represent our club over the next few years.”

Naden also believes the club is set up for a bright future, “From the moment I arrived this year the club has made us feel very welcome, and I’m delighted to extend my stay.”

From the front office to the coaching and playing staff, I can see it’s a really professional outfit, with plenty of ambition."
Brent Naden

I think there are a lot of things to be excited about in the years to come, including the new coaching structure, the Centre of Excellence, and the great young players we have coming through the junior rep teams.”

Right now, I’m just looking forward to doing my bit to help the team finish the season strongly.”

We're re-signing players for fun at this point.

He is our best option in the backs....the internal re-signing continues....would be good to jag an external signing too....none on the Horizon tho

A very questionable re-signing. Why the need to have 3 more years from him? His defence is highly questionable, hence his being released by his 2 previous clubs. Extending to 2025 is extreme overkill and very likely to bite us in the future.

given the focus on attacking football that's been mentioned by Sheens, Marshall and Farah I think Naden suits their style of footy down to the ground. yes he's a bit shoddy defensively but he's shown his ability both here and at other clubs with the ball in hand. I'm pretty happy with him re-signing to be honest, been very good since coming across.

 

[king_sirro]

Surprised he wants to stay considering he is being played in a position that doesn't suit his main strength.

Noice

Now announce joffa and Hastings pls

 

[PJ2]

Hope he doesn't coke up in the off season to celebrate

 

[weststigerman]

I wanted us to sign him when he went to the Dogs, he's been our best outside back since he got here so I'm happy he's extended.

Still has a clanger in him, but he makes things happen.

 

[Asu Kepaoa's #1 Fan]

Great re-signing. Has a few moments in him which make you go "what the hell were you doing there" then can have moments of brilliance.

 

[WesternSuburbsBoy]

decent re-signing but a 3 year deal is a bit overkill, hope it doesn't come back to bite us

 

[Demps]

We've always needed centres,
Now we've signed two.
Three if you count the winger, Starford.

 

[InBenjiWeTrust]

He is easily in our 2 best centres for next year, or this year to be fair

Naden >>>>>>> J Leilua, Roberts, Gildart

 

[jirskyr]

Bloke gives 100% every match. What else can you ask for? The future Tigers teams need to have the foundation of blokes committed to 100% every week, even if they are not world-beaters.

Boo

You don't even know the value of the deal.

 

[WT2K]

Benji obviously a fan as it extends into his first season as coach.

Now announce joffa and Hastings pls

They will come....

 

[Jethro]

Talented athlete..but does a lot of really dumb things

He's a good fit for us then

 

[Cultured_Bogan]

You mean we've resigned a couple of guys who can actually do something in attack?

Naden, like Kepaoa, have a clanger in them but they are capable of very good attacking footy.
