Souths young guns sign new deals
South Sydney tyros Chris McQueen, Dave Tyrell and Nathan Peats have signed new deals that will keep them at NRL club until the end of 2013.
Tyrrell, 22, joined the Rabbitohs in 2008 from the Easts Tigers in Brisbane, and will play his 30th NRL game this Monday against Penrith.
McQueen, 23, arrived at the club in 2009 and despite an injury-interrupted career, has proven valuable in the outside backs or the back row this year.
Twenty-year-old local junior Peats captained Souths' Toyota Cup side to the grand final last year and made his debut against Manly in round four this season.
"This is a great reward for hard work for these three players," said chief executive Shane Richardson.
"These three guys have been some of the hardest working players in our squad over the past couple of years and thoroughly deserve their contract extensions."
