\n <\/p>\n

Dylan Farrell<\/a>, a former NRL<\/a> centre for the South Sydney Rabbitohs<\/a> and St George Illawarra Dragons<\/a>, has signed with a new team, which will see him continue his rugby league playing career ahead of next season.<\/p>\n

Last playing in the NRL<\/a> in 2015, Farrell has agreed to join the Woy Woy Roosters, who compete in the Rugby League<\/a> Central Coast competition and are coming off a 2025 campaign in which they finished in sixth place on the ladder – the Kincumber Colts won the premiership.<\/p>\n

Returning to the field, the 34-year-old brings 90 matches of NRL<\/a> experience to the squad, having played 70 games for the South Sydney Rabbitohs<\/a> and a further 20 appearances for the St George Illawarra Dragons<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Scoring a total of 32 trues during his time in first-grade, he announced his retirement from professional rugby league at the end of the 2015 NRL<\/a> season.<\/p>\n

“The Woy Woy Roosters are excited to announce the return of ex-NRL star and proud Roosters junior Dylan Farrell<\/a>,” a club statement read.<\/p>\n

“From the local fields of Woy Woy to the big lights of the NRL<\/a> with the Rabbitohs and Dragons, Dylan is bringing elite-level experience, professionalism, and a deep love for the club back where it all began.<\/p>\n

“A true Rooster returning home. Big body. Big game. Big impact.”<\/p>\n
