Brian To’o Signs with Brisbane Broncos on Three-Year, \$2.1 Million Deal
Brisbane, QLD — June 20, 2025
In a stunning development that has sent shockwaves through the NRL, star winger Brian To’o has officially signed with the Brisbane Broncos on a three-year deal worth \$2.1 million, the club confirmed this afternoon.
The 26-year-old New South Wales and Australian international will leave the Penrith Panthers at the end of the 2025 season, marking the end of a golden era for the reigning premiers and one of their most beloved figures.
To’o has been a key pillar in Penrith’s dominance over the last half-decade, playing a crucial role in three premiership victories and carving out a reputation as one of the game’s most relentless and crowd-pleasing wingers.
“To’o brings leadership, professionalism, and an infectious energy that is hard to replicate,” said Broncos head coach Kevin Walters during a press conference. “We’re thrilled to welcome him to Brisbane. He’s the kind of player who changes games and lifts those around him — on and off the field.”
The contract, reportedly worth **\$700,000 per season**, makes To’o one of the highest-paid wingers in NRL history, and it signals a major statement of intent from a Broncos side looking to cement themselves as genuine premiership contenders.
While many believed To’o was destined to remain a one-club man at Penrith, Broncos management had been quietly pursuing him for months, offering a compelling package that includes leadership opportunities, off-field development programs, and a central role in the club’s long-term vision.
In a heartfelt social media post, To’o acknowledged the move with mixed emotions:
> “Penrith will always be home and hold a special place in my heart. I’m beyond grateful for the love and support from the fans and my brothers at the club. This new chapter with the Broncos is exciting — I’m ready to give it everything.”
The move is already being hailed as one of the biggest signings of the offseason. NRL analysts point to To’o’s unmatched metres gained, elite finishing, and tenacious defense as qualities that will elevate the Broncos’ backline to new heights.
“This could be the spark Brisbane needs to return to their glory days,” said NRL commentator Matthew Johns. “Pair To’o with Reece Walsh and Kotoni Staggs, and you’ve got fireworks.”
To’o is expected to join the Broncos for pre-season training in November. Until then, all eyes will be on his farewell campaign with Penrith — and the possibility of going out with a fourth premiership ring.
