Warrington hooker Brad Dwyer has signed a new two-year deal, to keep him at the club until the end of 2016.

Dwyer, 21, made his first-team debut back in March 2012, and has since made 14 appearances for the Wolves.

He has also spent time on loan and dual registration with Huddersfield and Swinton respectively.

Head Coach Tony Smith said: “Brad has progressed well in the time he has been here. He is learning his trade behind two high-quality hookers and is biding his time; taking advantage of the learning experience. 

“He’s done a great job each time he’s stepped out for us and he is an inspiration around the training ground highly focussed on improving and for that reason we are delighted to extend his contract. It’s great to be bringing these young players through. 

“The experience for them is enormous and they are helping to enhance our current squad. The depth of new talent coming though is great for the club.”

Dwyer has made two appearances for the Wolves this season, and is currently behind Mickey Higham and Michael Monaghan in the pecking order for the number nine jersey.

He said: “I’m made up. It’s a bit of security for me and has come off the back of a lot of hard work in pre-season. I would like a bit more game time than what I’ve had so far but it’s about being patient and I’m happy with where I am.

“There’s quite a few of us who have broken through this year; some getting more game time than others. The more Super League game time we get the better we will be.

“Tony’s backing me, I’ve just got to be patient and bide my time.”
