CONFIRMED: The sports world is ablaze with excitement over the latest update on St George Illawarra Dragons star Nick Tsougranis. What was once mere speculation and rumour is now officially validated…
The Red V faithful finally have clarity — and it’s the news they’ve been hoping for. St George Illawarra Dragons rising star Nick Tsougranis has officially put pen to paper on a new contract extension that will keep him at the club through the end of the 2027 NRL season, ending weeks of speculation about his future.
Tsougranis, who has quickly earned a reputation as one of the most promising young forwards in the Dragons system, had been the subject of mounting rumours suggesting rival clubs were circling — hoping to lure the powerhouse prop away from Wollongong. But the Dragons have acted decisively to lock down their emerging talent, reinforcing their commitment to building a new era around homegrown stars.
Head coach Shane Flanagan couldn’t hide his excitement, saying: “Nick represents everything we want this club to stand for — toughness, pride, and relentless effort. He’s only just scratching the surface of what he can become, and we’re thrilled to keep him in the red and white.”
Tsougranis, still just 20, has impressed in NSW Cup and made waves during his training appearances with the NRL squad. His physicality, work ethic, and leadership qualities have already caught the eye of veterans and coaching staff alike.
“This club has given me everything,” Tsougranis said following the announcement. “I’m proud to re-sign and continue growing here. I want to earn my spot and bring success back to this jersey.”
The news has sparked a wave of excitement among Dragons supporters, many of whom view Tsougranis as a key pillar of the club’s future. With youth, hunger, and loyalty on his side, the big man is quickly becoming a fan favourite before he’s even made his official NRL debut.
With this latest development confirmed, the Dragons have sent a clear message: the rebuild is real, the next generation is ready, and Nick Tsougranis is right at the heart of it.
