  • Rooster Mitchell Aubusson’s lifetime deal..

    ROOSTER FOR LIFE
    Veteran backrower Mitchell Aubusson is set to ink a new three-year-deal which should make him a Roosters player for life.
    Market Watch can reveal the Roosters are waiting for Aubusson’s management to get back to them with the finer details of the deal but anticipate the contract to be signed off on before the end of the month.
    The premiership winner told foxsports.com.au contract negotiations are still progressing with his manager, with talks in the final stages.
    “Getting close,” Aubusson told Market Watch.
    “Hopefully in the next few weeks we’ll get that sorted. I’ll just leave that with the manager and the club.”

    A versatile player, Aubusson has played over 200 NRL games for the Roosters since making his debut in 2007.
    In his 10th season of first grade with the Tricolours, the new deal will take him through until the end of 2019 by which time he’ll be 32.
    Essentially the new contract means Aubusson should be able to finish his career with the one club, a proud moment for the workhorse.
    “That’s one of the things that’s drawn me to this club,” he said.
    “I consider myself a pretty loyal person and this club has done so much for me, brought me down as a country kid and I’d love to be able to finish my career here.”

    Excellent news. Congratulations to Maubs. Very few guys are going to play 300 odd games with one club in this day and age.

      Mitch Aubbo is a glue guy for this squad and has been such an unselfish player the last ten seasons, can play anywhere in the side and gets through the work - such a champion.

      I cannot believe its only been this year that he has earned his first Country jersey. Curious what type of salary he has accepted.

      Im so proud of the club for producing loyal club man, the 3 rookies from 07, Pearce, Aubbo, SKD have played over 200 games for the club and they're still in their Mid-Late 20's, remarkable considering our highest capped player was Kevin Hastings in 200 game mark.

        If Mitchell Aubusson, Shaun Kenny Dowall and Mitchell Pearce remain as one club players and reach the 300 game milestone that will be 5 players do this for our club which considering the transit lounge tag we have been stuck with is an amazing accomplishment. For comparison I don't think that the South Sydney Rabbitohs have any 300 game players yet compare the perception towards both clubs by the wider rugby league community against the reality.

          Maubs and SKD are the heartbeats of the club..

          Both are waaay more important for what they do off the field, than on it..

          2 of my favourite Roosters of all time..

                Unlucky for him if he finishes about 8 games shy of the magical 300. Don't think he will make it. But i doubt that will bother aubo in the slightest.

                  Yeh around 295 and he would have to play every game plus finals every year to get to that total. Though could get another year or 2 from 2020 and smash 300. Will only b 32, depends how he's travelling by then but not outta the question.

                      Fantastic news. I reckon Mitch would just about be the most popular and respected Roosters player on this forum. So glad he knocked back the Dragons.

                        The loyal clubman is a rare thing these days. We are lucky to have a few.

                          I can see Maubs moving straight into the coaching gig when he retires. Can see him working his way through the ranks, coaching Matts or Ball and moving on to the 20's later on before having a similar role to Fitzy
