Robertson pens new Waratahs, ARU deal

Wallabies prop Tom Robertson has signed a new deal with the Waratahs and Australian rugby until 2020 hoping to win more international caps.

Robertson, 23, is viewed as one of Australia's brightest young prospects and already has 15 caps to his name. Of the Wallabies' ten internationals this year, Robertson has featured in eight of those.

And Robertson is delighted to have agreed new terms, saying he was never tempted by the prospect of a more lucrative move abroad.

"I love playing in Australia so it was a pretty easy decision," Robertson told Fairfax Media.

"I had no interest in going overseas. To be honest, I didn't want to.

"I just bought a house in Sydney and I love playing for the Wallabies and Waratahs. I probably could have gone over there but I don't really have the urge to. 

"When I'm 30 and a bit over the hill, maybe, but I'm happy in Australia."
