THE disappointment of a Group Nine grand final loss has been soothed for Gundagai winger Tyron Gorman after signing with Canterbury Bulldogs’ under 20s team for next season.
Grabbing the opportunity with both hands, the rising representative star has been the target of NRL clubs for his sensational season on the wing for Tigers in his first full stint in the top grade.
Gorman was elevated to first grade from under 18s at the start of the year, but was handpicked by Bulldogs scouts at a trial earlier in the year and virtually secured a contract on the spot.
Speaking yesterday, Gorman said he was stoked to finally sign the papers on Wednesday night.
“I just went for a trial with the Bulldogs a few months ago and they told me afterwards that I’d played well enough to get a contract,” Gorman said yesterday.
“I was happy with how I went, they pretty much told me they’d offer me a contract.”
A burgeoning talent ready to crack the top grade, Gorman has starred for NSW Country and Bidgee Bulls under 18s representative teams this season in a nod to a huge future for the 18-year-old high school student.
The well-built young winger said playing in the NRL was his life-long dream, and he’s ready to do whatever it takes to make it happen.
