With his future locked in, Wallabies star Nick Frost is motivated to keep the strong results coming in Australian Rugby.

Frost is the latest star to be re-signed until the 2027 World Cup, joining Harry Wilson, Jeremy Williams, Lukhan Salakaia-Loto and Matt Faessler.

"It’s always good to have your future secured and focus on footy," he told reporters.

“When the off field stuff is done, you can generally enjoy yourself a little bit more.

“It’s good to stay at the club and get the support from the boys.”

Frost and Faessler signed on the same day and loom as key pieces heading into the future, starting with July's British and Irish Lions series.

The Brumby felt the love after wins over England and Wales and knows the positive sentiment around the game will continue if they pick up from where they left off.

“At the end of that Spring Tour we had a bit of success and felt the love and the support from the fans in Australia even if we were the other side of the world," Frost reflects.

“It was cool to see the media pick up a bit more positivity around Australian Rugby which is good because there’s a lot of great people out there who support the game from volunteers to club members.”

It culminated with the 2027 World Cup on home soil, with Frost hopeful his Brumbies teammates will follow his lead, with the likes of Tom Wright, Noah Lolesio and Len Ikitau off-contract at the end of the year.

"The Lions is a big (factor) but also a home World Cup having a little taste of the past experience (in 2023)," he said.

“It’s just knowing what we can do and that the performances are there, what we can do and the opportunities that lie ahead is definitely a big one.

“We’re always hopeful but understand for everyone there is a lot of things to consider

“…I think at the end of the day, if someone makes the decision to stay or leave, everyone respects what they decide, and you support them either way.

“It is good to see boys are committing to Aussie Rugby.”
