Though the 34-year-old remains under an injury cloud leading up to Origin, Thurston clearly had no doubts about re-signing with the Cowboys.

"It’s a real joy to be able to say I’ll be continuing on with the Cowboys in NRL season 2018," Thurston told the North Queensland Cowboys website.

"This club has given me so much over my 13 years here.

"I’ve played alongside some great talents, worked with amazing people and shared in phenomenal successes.

"It’s been a real privilege to be associated with the North Queensland Cowboys and now that the deal is done, I can concentrate on my footy and helping my teammates on and off the field."

Thurston started his career with Canterbury before making the move North in 2005 and has played 269 games for the club to date.
