Rob Valetini extends his deal with Brumbies

Back-rower Rob Valetini has extended his deal with the Brumbies for a further two years as he continues his progression at the elite level of the game.

Melbourne-born Valetini was signed by the Brumbies at the begining of the 2017 Super Rugby season as one for the future amid high praise of his exploits in schoolboy rugby.

At 113 kilograms and 193 centimetres, Valetini was just the second Australian forward to sign a Super Rugby contract while still being a schoolboy.
