Gold Coast Titans halfback Tanah Boyd has signed a two-year contract with the One New Zealand Warriors to the end of the 2026 NRL season.
The 24-year-old has amassed 69 NRL appearances since making his first-grade debut with the Titans in 2019.
“We’re thrilled to get Tanah across to the club. He’s a quality, proven player who will add great depth to our squad,” said One New Zealand Warriors general manager recruitment, pathways and development Andrew McFadden.
A former Queensland under-20 representative, Boyd joins incumbent halfbacks Te Maire Martin, Luke Metcalf and Chanel Harris-Tavita.
“Tanah’s arrival will create healthy competition among our halves,” said One New Zealand Warriors head coach Andrew Webster.
“He brings a great kicking game, strong game management skills and he’s also a proven goal kicker. We’re really looking forward to having him at our club.”
Predominantly used at halfback by the Titans, Boyd has also made a number of appearances in the No 6 jersey.
“There’s so much to like about the direction of the club, from Webby to the fans and the support the team gets here (in New Zealand),” said Boyd.
“There’s been plenty of players who have come this way (Australia to New Zealand) in the past and in recent times who have proven that if you buy in you can make an impact and that’s certainly what I plan on doing.”
Boyd played alongside veteran Kiwi and former Warrior Kieran Foran over the last two years while he’ll have a familiar face at the Warriors in 2024 Kiwi squad member Erin Clark, who is returning to his original NRL club. Boyd and Clark have been Gold Coast teammates since 2020.
Boyd’s father Shayne was a prop, playing a total of 10 first-grade matches (nine for Penrith in 1991-1992) and one for Balmain (1993).
