Jack Bird's Focus Remains on Dragons as Rival Clubs Circle

Jack Bird's Loyalty to the Dragons

Jack Bird is a 29-year-old rugby league player who has recently expressed his commitment to the St George Illawarra Dragons despite being granted permission to speak with rival clubs. Bird is contracted until the end of the 2025 season and made his intention clear following the Dragons' impressive 32-16 victory over the Gold Coast Titans at WIN Stadium.

Recent Performance and Future Focus

Filling in at five-eighth for the suspended Kyle Flanagan, Bird showcased his skills in only his second NRL game in three months. Bird stated, “I haven't spoken to any other clubs, that was just to get a good feel to see who is out there. But I am still 100 per cent committed to this team and club.” As he gears up for a match against his former team, the Cronulla Sharks, Bird is optimistic about his role in the Dragons’ future.

Reflections on His Career

Bird reflected on his career, noting, “I’m only 29, so I still think I have another few good years in me if the body holds up.” He remains focused and dedicated to improving his performance, trained in the squad's strategies, and hopes to maintain a simple game plan.
