Leeds Rhinos superstar Lachlan Miller has committed his future at AMT Headingley after agreeing a new contract extension with the club that will keep him at the Rhinos until at least the end of the 2027 Betfred Super League season with an option for the club to extend that until 2028.
Miller who joined the Rhinos in 2023 from NRL side Newcastle Knights lit up the Betfred Super League last season with some dazzling displays as he thrived under the coaching of Brad Arthur. Miller finished the season as Super League’s top tackle breaker and the only player in the league to average over 200 metres per game.
Commenting on his new long term deal, Miller said: “I am really pleased to have agreed a contract extension here at the Rhinos and I can not wait for next season already. The Rhinos have made my family and I feel so welcome since we came here and I know we are on the brink of something special as a team. This feels like home and it is great to have extended my contract.”
Miller and his family are also building for a future beyond the rugby field. Miller and his wife Ellie have recently opened Project Reform Pilates, Leeds first and only on demand pilates studio. Miller added: “We have loved raising our kids here in Leeds. My wife and I have opened a little Pilates studio in Horsforth. It gives us a focus outside of footy to look forward to. This is a great chance for my wife to build the business and something for our family to have after footy.”
Leeds Rhinos Sporting Director, Ian Blease, added: “We are delighted to get this deal agreed with Lachie so early in the off season. I know how much the Leeds fans love watching him play, he is the type of player who gets you on your feet every time he gets the ball. I thought he was the best full back in Super League last season and I am looking forward to seeing how he gets even better with a full pre-season ahead of the 2026 season.”
Head Coach, Brad Arthur, added: “Lachie has worked incredibly hard on his game this season and it was good to see him get the rewards for his hard work on the pitch. He is always looking to get his team on the front foot and never gives in; he constantly looks at ways he can get that extra metre or find the gap to put a team mate away. It is good news that he will be staying at the Rhinos even longer and I am sure there is even more to come from Lachie.”
