MATT Dufty has provided Warrington Wolves with a huge boost by committing his future to the club.

The Australian full-back, who has started the 2024 season in sparkling form, has signed a two-year extension to his contract with the club.

He had entered the final year of his initial deal but has now committed himself to The Wire until the end of the 2026 season.

Now, his aim is to ensure his superb start to the campaign endures throughout the year – he currently leads Super League for try involvements (11), metres made (933), tackle busts (46) and clean breaks (8).

Head coach Sam Burgess and attack-focused assistant coach Martin Gleeson have been hailed as a key part of the upturn in form by the man himself, who says he “wouldn’t want to be anywhere else” but Warrington.

“I’m excited to extend my stay at the club,” said Dufty, who has 25 tries in 41 appearances since joining The Wire from Canterbury Bulldogs partway through the 2022 season.

“I’m really enjoying my time here at Warrington and I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else.

“Sam [Burgess] and Gleese [Martin Gleeson] have been massive for me this year. They get me involved in the game and the way they’ve got us attacking this year has really suited me.

“I think here at Warrington we’ve got some of the best fans in all of sport. They’re passionate and hopefully we can make them proud.

“I’m starting to feel a lot more mature in my rugby league and I’m excited now for the years to come.”
