Jesse Bromwich

Jesse Bromwich (born 3 May 1989) is a New Zealand former professional rugby league footballer who last played as a prop for the Dolphins in the National Rugby League (NRL), who he also captained.

In 2021 and 2022, Bromwich co-captained the Melbourne Storm. He also played in their victorious 2012, 2017 and 2020 grand finals, and the 2010 and 2013 World Club Challenges. Bromwich played for New Zealand, the New Zealand Māori, and the NRL All Stars at representative level.

Bromwich was born in Auckland, New Zealand, and is of Māori descent. He is the older brother of Kenny Bromwich who also plays for the Dolphins.

He played junior rugby league for the Manurewa Marlins. All of his junior career was spent in Auckland, being an Auckland Sea lions NJC under 18s grand finalist and Auckland Rugby League under 18s grand finalist in 2006, playing for Auckland Metro under 18s in 2007 and Auckland Māori in both 2007 and 2008. In 2007 he played representative football for the New Zealand Māori under 18's side. He moved with his family to Australia in his late teens and played for the New South Wales country club Orange Hawks in 2008. His good form in the 2008 season was acknowledged when he became a New South Wales Country Rugby League Group 10 under 23's representative player.

Bromwich signed with Melbourne in 2009. In his first season with the club he was voted Toyota Cup NYC under 20s prop forward of the year and was named in the NYC team of the year after Melbourne won the competition. Bromwich played in the Storm's under-20s 24-22 grand final win over the West Tigers.

In 2009 he played in the New South Wales Cup with Melbourne's feeder club, the Central Coast Storm, making his debut against the Bankstown Bulls in round 10.

Bromwich was named in the Melbourne squad for the round 26 clash of the 2009 NRL season clash against the New Zealand Warriors in Auckland, however he was named 18th man and did not play.

Bromwich made his first-team debut against the Harlequins RL at the Twickenham Stoop in the World City Challenge in 2010. He made his full first-grade debut a week later against the Leeds Rhinos in the 2010 World Club Challenge. The Melbourne club won the trophy with an 18–10 win over the Super League champions at Elland Road, Leeds.
