Lipowicz is back for more at Trinity

Zac Lipowicz has agreed a new one-year deal with Super League champions Wakefield Trinity, keeping him at the club for the 2027 season. 

Having previously announced his intentions to join newly formed NRL side Perth Bears for 2027, the talented back rower will now stay with Trinity for the upcoming Super League season before heading back to Perth. 

Lipowicz joined Wakefield at the end of August bolstering the forward pack ahead of the Play-Off run. The one time Polish international appeared in six games for the Red, White and Blue and capped off his 2026 stint at Old Trafford forming part of Trinity’s Grand Final winning side. 

The 24-year old initially made his way to Super League shores ahead of the 2026 season joining Catalans Dragons. He made 26 appearances for the French side scoring eight tries in the process before being told he can look elsewhere and settling on a move to WF1.

A former stalwart of Penrith Panthers’ NSW Cup side with over 50 appearances between 2023 and 2025, Lipowicz will look to kick on from a productive half a dozen games and once again impress Daryl Powell and the Trinity fans. 

Upon the signing, Director of Rugby, Ste Mills said: “Getting Zac back for the 2027 season is a huge boost for the club as he offers great versatility to our squad & we all saw how valuable that was when he joined for a short stint at the end of last season. It’s something we have been working on since that stint, and we are delighted to get it over the line.”
