BUDDING Wagga rugby league star Cameron Breust has been given a golden opportunity to one day realise his lifelong dream of playing in the NRL. In a massive boost to his confidence and prospects, Canberra Raiders have re-signed Breust to a two-year contract.The 17-year-old, who has been with Canberra for the past 18 months, was a star in the SG Ball competition with the Raiders this season. Playing at halfback, Breust captured the eye of Canberra officials and the club was determined to extend the youngster’s contract.Breust yesterday admitted he was a little surprised with the conditions of the contract and said he was looking forward to developing his burgeoning career with Canberra. “It is massive and I didn’t expect it (contract) to be so good,” Breust said. “It’s a big relief having my future all sorted out and now I can concentrate on improving as a player and playing more consistently. “It’s good to know they (Canberra) have showed some faith in me and I want to keep getting better and pay them back.”Canberra has given Breust the option of staying in Wagga next year to finish his education with Mater Dei Catholic College or moving to a college in the ACT. “The only thing we haven’t finalised is whether I will move to Canberra,” Breust said. “I am in year 11 at the moment and they said I could stay here to finish off year 12 or move to Canberra. “I haven’t decided what I will do yet and I will have a chat to my parents and sort it out.”Breust, who also plays Australian football with Riverina Football League club Mangoplah-Cookardinia United-Eastlakes, said he was aiming to win a place in the Toyota Cup under 20 team next year. “We finished equal first in the SG Ball but we were knocked out in the semi-final, so it would be great to go one further next year,” Breust said. “Hopefully if I am playing well enough (in SG Ball) I might be able to go up and get a run in the under 20s as well.”
