James Slipper will continue his Super Rugby career with the ACT Brumbies for the 2024 season, the Australian Rugby Union confirmed on Thursday. The experienced Wallabies prop has inked a contract extension that will make next year his 17th campaign in the southern hemisphere's premier rugby competition.
Slipper, a veteran of Australian rugby, has been a stalwart for the Canberra-based franchise and brings considerable experience to the squad. His decision to extend comes as the Brumbies prepare for the upcoming Super Rugby season.
The 34-year-old loosehead prop has been a consistent performer in Australian rugby and his retention reflects the Brumbies' confidence in his continued contributions to the team. Slipper's longevity in Super Rugby places him among the competition's most enduring players.
The Brumbies will be looking to leverage Slipper's experience as they compete in the next Super Rugby campaign. His contract extension signals the franchise's commitment to building continuity in their squad for the year ahead.
