The son of former NRL star Brad Fittler has his future rugby career up in the air after still being unsigned by the NSW Waratahs for 2027. Fittler has spent this month playing for Australia in the World Rugby Junior World Championship held in Georgia and is understood to return to local club rugby shortly. Despite the decorated history Zach's old man has in league, it is understood he thoroughly enjoys playing union and a birth in the NRL is unlikely. “He is starting to develop into a rugby player, whereas before he was a league player playing rugby. “He's learning the nuances of the game, and I hope he stays because he's certainly developing into a really good prospect.”
