The 26-year-old has been secured by the Warriors following negotiations with the
Broncos to grant co-captain Mitchell Barnett an early release to join Brisbane next year.

“We’re excited to have Grant on board from next year,” said One New Zealand Warriors
general manager recruitment, pathways and development Andrew McFadden.
“He has come out of a great system at Melbourne and now the Broncos and he’ll add real
experience to our squad.”
Making his NRL debut in 2022, Anderson amassed 50 appearances and scored 23 tries
for the Storm in four seasons before joining the Broncos this year.
“Grant is an accomplished outside back who has plenty to offer,” said One New Zealand
Warriors head coach Andrew Webster.
“He gives us depth among our outside backs and will certainly add to competition in the
squad.
“We’ll also benefit from the professional attitude he’ll bring after four seasons with the
Storm and now being part of the Broncos this year.”
A Newcastle Knights junior, Anderson also has a total 52 Queensland Cup appearances
for the Northern Pride, Sunshine Coast Falcons and Wynnum Manly Seagulls.
