5 Jesse Arthars

Jesse Arthars was born in Auckland before he moved to the Gold Coast with his family at age 11, where he played his junior football with the Helensvale Hornets.

A promising outside back, Arthars topped the points tally in the NRL’s Under-20s competition and eventually made his first-grade debut with the Titans in 2019.

Arthars joined the Broncos the following year and has since become a mainstay of the squad, playing 74 games and earning a reputation for his powerful kick returns and clinical finishes on the wing.

He was awarded the Broncos 2024 ‘Wally Lewis Play of the Year’ after executing a jaw dropping try off the back of a well-placed kick from Captain Adam Reynolds.

After a blistering start to the 2025 season—crossing for tries in eight of his first 11 games—Arthars was rewarded with selection in his first Queensland State of Origin squad ahead of Game 1.
