Just-signed Sydney Roosters halfback Ronald Volkman and hooker Freddy Lussick are joining the Vodafone Warriors immediately.

The 19-year-old Volkman’s three-year contract from 2023 through to 2025 was announced last week but he will now link up with the Vodafone Warriors early.

Volkman’s 21-year-old teammate Lussick has been secured on a contract to the end of 2022 campaign.

Both players join the Vodafone Warriors in Redcliffe today.

“We’re thrilled to be able to add Ronald and Freddy to our squad right now,” said Vodafone Warriors general manager football Craig Hodges.

“We were keen to have Ronald onboard for the rest of this season rather than waiting for 2023. It’s beneficial for him and for us to have him settled into the club sooner rather than later.

“And Freddy brings NRL experience out of the Roosters’ system to add more support in the dummy half ranks to Wayde Egan and Taniela Otukolo.”

Volkman, who balanced rugby league and rugby union as a schoolboy star, is a gifted young half who’s regarded as one of the hottest prospects in the game.

Lussick made his NRL debut with the Roosters in 2020 while he was loaned to the St George Illawarra Dragons for two games last year.

He’s the youngest of three brothers to fashion NRL careers. The eldest of them Darcy played 117 NRL games in total for Manly and Parramatta from 2011 to 2017 before playing for the Toronto Wolfpack and then the Salford Red Devils. Hooker Joey had one game for Manly in 2017, spent three seasons with Salford in England, returned to the NRL to play nine times for Parramatta and is now back in England with St Helens.

Freddy Lussick made five NRL appearances with the Roosters in 2020, four in 2021 and two for the Dragons.

Along with Volkman he has played for the Roosters’ feeder club the North Sydney Bears in the New South Wales Cup. He also played at under-18 and under-20 level for the Roosters.

Hooker Freddy Lussick is staying with the Vodafone Warriors until the end of the 2024 NRL season.

The 21-year-old has signed a two-year deal after originally joining the club in early May for the rest of the 2022 campaign.

“Freddy has settled in brilliantly since joining us,” said Vodafone Warriors general manager football Craig Hodges.

“While he’s a great fit for our club as deputy to Wayde Egan, he has also really impressed us with what he has provided off the field.”

Lussick had made nine appearances for the Sydney Roosters and two as a loan player to the St George Illawarra Dragons before joining the Vodafone Warriors.

Since then he has had three outings, his first as Vodafone Warrior #270 off the bench in the 30-32 Magic Round loss to South Sydney at Suncorp Stadium.

He was again used off the bench the following week against the Dragons before starting against the Newcastle Knights in round 12.

He’s the youngest of three Lussick brothers to fashion NRL careers. The eldest of them Darcy played 117 NRL games in total for Manly Warringah and Parramatta from 2011 to 2017 before playing for the Toronto Wolfpack and then the Salford Red Devils.

Hooker Joey had one game for Manly in 2017, spent three seasons with Salford in England, returned to the NRL to play nine times for Parramatta and is now back in England with St Helens.
