The Wests Tigers are happy to announce that Alex Twal has extended his stay with the team by signing a new, long-term deal.
Twal is under contract for three years, extending his stay in Wests Tigers colours until at least the conclusion of the 2027 NRL season. He had previously signed for the 2024 campaign.
The 27-year-old prop has played 124 games for the Wests Tigers in seven seasons since making his NRL debut in Round 17 of the 2017 campaign.
After failing to score a try in 115 games this season, he scored his first NRL try in Round 16 against Melbourne Storm.
Fans and members of the Wests Tigers were even more enamored with the Lebanon international when the wild celebrations at Campbelltown Sports Stadium went viral.
Twal, who is ready to begin his eighth season with the team, expressed excitement for the years to come.
Twal remarked, “I’m just so happy to extend my stay long-term because this club means so much to me.”
Here at Wests Tigers, where I made my NRL debut, I feel like family.

“As a squad and a club, we still have a lot of goals to accomplish, and as a player, I have too. In a few weeks, I can’t wait to finish 2023 and go headfirst into preseason training.
Twal’s consistency, in the opinion of head coach Benji Marshall, is a valuable addition to the group.
“He puts in a lot of effort, gets ready ahead of time, and delivers every week,” Marshall said.
