Andy Muirhead re-signs with Brumbies

Winger Andy Muirhead will remain with the Brumbies until at least the end of 2024 after re-signing for the next two years.

Muirhead first came to the ACT to join Canberra Royals and got his first Super Rugby opportunity for the Brumbies as injury cover at the end of 2017, scoring a double against the Jaguares in just his second game for the club.

Now a member of the Brumbies leadership group, and a fan favourite, Muirhead brought up 50 games for the club in round one this season, a great achievement for the proud Indigenous man.

Muirhead said he was looking forward to continuing at the club that gave him an opportunity.

“I’m truly grateful to be able to keep playing my rugby here in Canberra with the Brumbies.”

“The Canberra community have really embraced me, and the club obviously means a lot to my family and I after they gave me my chance to live out a dream to play Super Rugby.

“I want to thank Dan and the coaches for their belief in me over the years and my teammates for their support, and I look forward to giving my all in a Brumbies jersey for at least another two years.”

Brumbies head coach, Dan McKellar said its a great re-signing for the club.

“It’s fantastic for the Brumbies to have Andy re-sign with a club which I know he cares deeply about.”

“It’s a testament to his commitment and work ethic that Andy has turned himself into a top-class professional player and a real leader in our group.

“Having his experience and leadership around Brumbies HQ will be really important for the club and he’s become a valuable member of the community so to have him sticking around is awesome.”

Muirhead joins a growing list of recent re-signings for the Brumbies, joining Noah Lolesio, Nic White, Cadeyrn Neville and Luke Reimer in re-committing to the club this month.
