LACHIE MILLER has been described as “the best fullback in Super League” after committing his future to Leeds Rhinos.
He has agreed a new contract extension that will keep him at the Rhinos until at least the end of 2027, with an option for the club to extend that until 2028.
Miller, who joined in 2023 from NRL side Newcastle Knights, finished the 2025 season as Super League’s top tackle breaker and the only player in the league to average over 200 metres per game.
The 31-year-old has made 50 appearances for Leeds since joining, scoring 16 tries and kicking 17 goals.
Miller said: “I am really pleased to have agreed a contract extension here at the Rhinos and I cannot wait for next season already.
“The Rhinos have made my family and I feel so welcome since we came here and I know we are on the brink of something special as a team.
“This feels like home and it is great to have extended my contract.”
Leeds’ sporting director Ian Blease added: “We are delighted to get this deal agreed with Lachie so early in the off season.
“I know how much the Leeds fans love watching him play. He is the type of player who gets you on your feet every time he gets the ball.
“I thought he was the best fullback in Super League last season and I am looking forward to seeing how he gets even better with a full pre-season ahead of the 2026 season.”
Rhinos’ boss Brad Arthur added: “Lachie has worked incredibly hard on his game this season and it was good to see him get the rewards for his hard work on the pitch.
“He is always looking to get his team on the front foot and never gives in; he constantly looks at ways he can get that extra metre or find the gap to put a team-mate away.
“It is good news that he will be staying at the Rhinos even longer and I am sure there is even more to come from Lachie.”
