Wests Tigers sign Kurt Mann for 2027 season

The Wests Tigers are pleased to announce the signing of experienced utility Kurt Mann on a one-year deal for 2027.

Mann has played 235 games in the NRL since making his first-grade debut for the Melbourne Storm in 2014.

The 33-year-old also played three Origin games for Queensland in 2025.

Mann has previously played at the Melbourne Storm, St George-Illawarra Dragons, Newcastle Knights, and the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs.

A tough, versatile player, Mann will be an invaluable addition to the Tigers team with his ability to cover several positions.

“I’m really looking forward to joining the Wests Tigers, connecting with the playing group and coaches,’’ Mann said.

“I can’t wait to get stuck into some hard work and giving 2027 a red-hot shake.”

Wests Tigers Head Coach Benji Marshall welcomed Mann to the Club.

“Kurt brings Origin experience and has played plenty of games in the NRL. He adds a lot of depth to our roster,’’ Marshall said.

“He brings leadership. He is uncompromising in the way he plays and offers great utility value as he can play almost anywhere.

“Ultimately, Kurt is a fierce competitor on the field.”
