Tyrone Peachey has assured Gold Coast coach Garth Brennan he will honour his three-year deal with the NRL club, beginning next season. Peachey caused a stir last month when he revealed he would wait until the end of the NRL finals to decide his future, six months after he inked a deal with the Titans. That prompted the Titans to insist the 27-year-old wouldn't be released from his deal, but Peachey revealed on Tuesday he'd since cleared the air with Brennan.
"I signed a contract with the Gold Coast and I'm going there. I don't know why everyone is going crazy," said Peachey from the Australian team camp in Auckland. "I spoke to him (Brennan) a week before I found out I was in this (Kangaroos) team ... I told him not to stress. "I've got a house there (in Penrith), I've been there for five years and I call it home, so it's going to be tough to leave. "But I'm going to the Gold Coast where the beach is and it's a pretty good place to live I think." Peachey shapes as a crucial part of former Panthers' assistant Brennan's plans for next season and arrives with a bond formed in their time together at Penrith. Released a season early by the Panthers in a bid to manage their salary cap and re-sign Nathan Cleary, Peachey is expected to start in the centres for the Titans.The club also have also purchased Shannon Boyd to go with representative forwards Jai Arrow and Jarrod Wallace, while Ash Taylor and Alexander Brimson shape as promising halves.
