ROEBUCK SIGNS NEW SHARKS DEAL
Sharks winger Tom Roebuck has committed his long-term future to his boyhood club by signing a new two-year contract.
The 25 year old, who came through the Sharks academy, has played 114 games and scored 54 tries for the club since making his debut in a PREM Rugby Cup defeat at Worcester in 2018.
This season he played and scored against Bath in the PREM Rugby Cup but has been ruled out of the first three league games with a calf strain.
On the international scene Tom, who played his junior rugby at Chester Rugby Club, made his England debut against Japan in the 2024 summer tour, and scored his first international try against the same opposition at Twickenham in 2025.
His new deal will keep at Sharks until at least the end of the 2028/29 season.
Shark #306 Tom said: “For me, Sale Sharks is home. It’s the club I supported as a child, it’s where I’ve grown up and it’s all I know. I love it here and I couldn’t see myself playing anywhere else.
“I also get to play with a group of mates who I have grown up playing with and that’s incredibly special.
“The coaches and I are aligned on how we want my career to pan out and a big part of that is playing for England. I feel I’m in the best place, with the best people around me, to keep pushing forward.
“We’ve got such a good team here and we’ve been so close in the past few years, reaching semi-finals and a final. Now I want to put my best foot forward and be part of the Sale team that goes one better and makes the next step.”
Sharks Director of Rugby Alex Sanderson said: “Tom is one of our own and he’s has developed into one of the very best wingers in the PREM. We’re so happy that he’s sticking with us because he’s a massive part of how we want to play going forward.
“He has an X-factor that very few other players have but the most exciting part is that he’s getting better all the time and I know his best is yet to come. I’m buzzing that his best years will be in a Sharks shirt.”
