Talented Averillo renews contract

TALENTED local junior Jake Averillo (pictured) has extended his contract with the Bulldogs for a further two years, keeping him at Belmore until the end of the 2023 season.

The talented 20 year-old back made his NRL debut last season and showed his versatility by playing in the centres, on the wing and in the halves at various times.
A product of the Bankstown Sports/Moorebank Rams clubs, Averillo played in 13 NRL matches last season, scoring three tries and kicking 12 goals and impressed all judges with his footwork and speed off the mark. His performances earned him the Bulldogs Rookie of the Year for 2020.
