NSW centre Tom Carter has signed a new two-year deal with the Waratahs which will take him through to the end of the 2012 Super 14 season.

Carter is one of the most experienced players at the Tahs having made his state debut as a 21-year-old against Salta on the development tour of Argentina in 2004.

Carter said that while he weighed up his options, he always leaned towards remaining with the Waratahs in a deal which could take him past 50 state caps.

“I’ve always been really happy here at the Tahs and when they approached me to extend my contract I was always pretty likely to stay,” said Carter.

“Of course you see what’s out there and try to look at it without emotion to make sure you’re making the best decision from a personal and a rugby point of view, and I’m more than comfortable with the decision I’ve made.

“The culture and the set-up here are fantastic; you only need to look at the quality of players who have come here recently, and the number of players who are choosing to stay here to realise that.”
