The North Queensland Toyota Cowboys have signed veteran dummy-half Soni Luke to a one-year contract for the 2026 NRL season.
The Tongan International appeared in 26 games for the Penrith Panthers over the course of four seasons, including 20 in the club’s 2023 premiership campaign.
Luke has appeared 10 Internationals for Tonga, with his most recent appearances coming in last year’s Pacific Championships.
“With the departure of Karl Lawton, we had an open spot in our roster for an experienced dummy-half to complement Reed Mahoney and Xavier Kerrisk,” Cowboys General Manager of Football Micheal Luck said.
“Soni has been a part of the Panthers system during their four consecutive grand final wins, so he knows what it takes to win and remain successful in the NRL.
“His craft from dummy-half is excellent and we believe he will be a strong addition to our squad.”
