Ben Trbojevic, a talented backrower, has signed a three-year contract extension with Manly to keep him with the Sea Eagles through at least the conclusion of the 2027 campaign.

Alongside his older brothers, Tom and Jake, the 22-year-old had a fantastic debut season in 2023, participating in 12 games and beginning to show off his enormous potential.

Ben Trbojevic re-signs a long-term contract with the Manly Sea Eagles.
Head coach Anthony Seibold stated, “Ben has already made further strides forward this pre-season,” upon the news of the deal.

“As it is, he is vying for a starting spot.

In addition to recognizing Ben’s growth, we also hope to honor his potential for the following three years.

“Obviously the connection and cohesion the three Trbojevic brothers bring to the team as local juniors is something that is really special.”

Ben Trbojevic made his local team debut in 2021 and played in four games that season before being sidelined by injury for the next two years, totaling 22 games.

Although he was first added to the team as a center, he moved to the backrow last season, where the 22-year-old now believes he has a chance to establish himself as an NRL regular for the team.

“I just want to put my best foot forward and be in that 17 each week,” Trbojevic stated.

“Obviously, I want to get started. I thought that last year was a significant stride.

“I’m loving playing in the backrow. You are just always in the game. It’s such an important position in the team. I just want to give my best each week for Manly.”

Seibold stated that locking down yet another junior who had progressed through the club’s pathways program was another sign Manly were heading in the right direction.

“By extending Ben out for a further three years, it means we have got guys like him, Tolu Koula, Haumole Olakauátu, Taniela Paseka, Josh Schuster, as well as Jake and Tom Trbojevic, all here for the next period of time,” Seibold said.
