Tom Burgess signs new deal with South Sydney Rabbitohs

Tom Burgess signs a new deal with the South Sydney Rabbitohs running until 2016.

Tom Burgess has committed himself to the South Sydney Rabbitohs by signing a new contract at the NRL club.

The 22-year-old England international, who moved to Australia in 2013, is now contracted to the Rabbitohs for another year.

Burgess has had success at the club during his two-year spell so far, helping to guide the team to victory in the NRL Grand Final in his second season.

"I'm really excited about signing on for another year with the Rabbitohs," BBC Sport quotes Burgess as saying.

"I'm really enjoying my time with the club. We've got a great set of lads here, and in the end the decision to stay is what I think is best for my career."

Meanwhile, Sam Tomkins has been granted early release by the New Zealand Warriors to return to the Super League due to the England player feeling homesick.
