Brumbies have confirmed that backrow Rory Scott has extended his stay at the club until the end of 2023.

A product of Brumbies pathway, the 20-year-old made his senior debut for the club during the 2021 season of Super Rugby AU against Western Force and has seven caps to his name.

“I’m really happy to re-sign with the Brumbies for another two years," he told the club's official website.

“I’ve learned so much this season about what it takes at this level, I’ve loved every minute out on the field and I feel privileged to represent the Brumbies having supported the club since I was kid.

“There’s no place I'd rather be right now at this stage of my life and career, and I can't wait to continue to improve my game under the coaches here at the Brumbies."

Brumbies head coach Dan McKellar is delighted with Scott re-committing to the club.

“It’s great to see Rory commit to the club for at least the next two years.”

“He's been absolutely outstanding in how he's risen to the challenge of Super Rugby this season.

“Rory is a professional in a way that is far beyond his years, he had a great preseason and he's been able to see the rewards of that when he got his chance on the field.

“Not many 20-year-olds could handle the pressure and expectation of starting in a Super Rugby Grand Final like he did, and I know his family and the wider Canberra rugby community are proud of him and will be delighted he’s sticking around.”

Brumbies currently are at seventh place in the Super Rugby Trans Tasman campaign after losing both their opening matches until now.
