Jonah Glover signs for 2026-27
30th Jun 2025
The South Sydney Rabbitohs are delighted to announce the signing of exciting young half Jonah Glover for the 2026 and 2027 season today.
Glover, 22, has been one of the standout performers for the St George Illawarra Dragons at the NSW Cup level over the past two years and has been touted as a future NRL player following his strong performances in the halves. Glover was named the Hastings Deering Colts Player of the Year whilst playing for the Brisbane Tigers in 2022, having played first grade for the Tigers the previous season. In 2023 he was part of the Bulldogs’ premiership winning Jersey Flegg Cup side.
Rabbitohs Head of Recruitment and Retention, Mark Ellison, says Glover has what it takes to play at the NRL level. "Jonah has shown through his discussions with us, and his performances on the field, that he is ready to take the next step in his career and play in the NRL," Mr Ellison said. "He is extremely quick on his feet, very elusive, a solid defender and a try-scoring, goal-kicking half. “He has performed strongly against men in the NSW Cup on a consistent basis and will create more competition for spots in our halves from next season. We wish him the best of luck for the remainder of the season with the Dragons, and we look forward to him joining us for the start of the 2026 pre-season."
