“We spoke about, when I first came here, that there was a chance to play my way into the team and hopefully get the reward at the end of it with an extension.
“I like the membership and being right here, so it was a no brainer for me to remain.
“Being right here has introduced me again to my greatest. I am having fun with it and you’ll see that on the sector. We need to create one thing particular and I need to be a part of it.
“It’s a lengthy deal and I want to repay the club for that. Hopefully, my best years are still to come.”
Head coach Brad Arthur praised Connor’s contribution to the group’s success.
“Jake has been outstanding in how he’s applied himself,” he stated.
“He’s taken ownership of the team, he’s embraced the style we want to play, and he’s become a key voice in our group. He has consistently performed at the highest level for the Rhinos each week and securing his future is a big step for us as we build stability and a core that can grow together.
“We’re enthusiastic about what’s forward with Jake main us across the park.”
