Mitch Inman extends Melbourne Rebels deal Mitch Inman in action for the Rebels. WALLABY hopeful Mitch Inman has extended his contract with the Melbourne Rebels until the end of 2015. The former Western Force player has been a beacon of consistency for the Rebels since moving to Melbourne, earning selection in the Wallabies' extended training squad in 2012. "I've agreed to stay at the club for another two years and I couldn't be happier," Inman said. I really enjoy playing with the guys here and believe in this club and its rugby program moving forward. I have been in discussions with the club for some time, but it is great to be back in Australia and sign on the dotted line this week. Inman paid tribute to the Rebels' supporter base. "I can't speak highly enough of the Rebels fans," he said. The club is so well supported, even through the tough times the fans and members are so loyal. You just have to give them credit; they are some of the best supporters going around. The club has also allowed me to continue my off field endeavours one day a week. I want to take full advantage of this and continue with my studies and get some valuable work experience as well as continuing to play tugby in the best provincial competition in the world. Tomorrow, the Rebels turn their focus to trying to beat Inman's former side. "Even though we have come across a couple of big losses, the boys are willing to hang in there and are showing great character," he said. The coaching staff are doing everything that they can to keep us motivated and get the most out of us, and full credit has to go to 'Hilly' (coach Damien Hill) and the entire coaching group for trying to get the best out of us despite a hugely disappointing tour of South Africa. This week, we get the chance to turn it around, and it will be a challenge for us - as is every match against our cross country rivals.
