In October 2011, Elgey played for the Australian Schoolboys.[3][4] From 2012 to 2014, he played for the Gold Coast Titans' NYC team, captaining the side in 2014.[5][6] Elgey was named on the interchange bench in the 2014 NYC Team of the Year,[7] but then awarded the NYC Player of the Year, despite his team coming 15th (second last).[8][9] On 12 September 2014, he re-signed with the Titans on a 1-year contract.[10]

Playing career

[edit]

In 2015, Elgey started the year in the Titans' Queensland Cup team, the Tweed Heads Seagulls.[11] In Round 4, he made his NRL debut for the Titans against the Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks, playing at halfback in the Titans' 24–22 win at Remondis Stadium.[12][13][14] He then re-signed with the Titans on a 2-year contract.[15][16] In Round 8 against the New Zealand Warriors, he scored his first and second NRL career tries in the Titans' 32–28 win at Mt Smart Stadium.[17][18] He finished his debut year in the NRL having played in 16 matches, scoring 6 tries and kicking 10 goals for the Titans,[19] and was named their Rookie of the Year.[20] On 26 September, he played for the Prime Minister's XIII against Papua New Guinea, playing at halfback in his team's 40–12 win in Port Moresby.[21][22]

On 5 January 2016, Elgey suffered a season-ending anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) knee injury at the Titans' first training session of the season.[23][24] on 14 March, he extended his contract with the Titans to the end of 2018.[25]

In August 2018, Elgey signed a two-year deal to join the Manly-Warringah Sea Eagles for the 2019 NRL season.[26]

On 24 September 2019, Elgey announced his retirement from rugby league via his Instagram page. In his post Elgey wrote "I just know deep down I don't love it like I used to and when you lose that it's very hard to keep doing it at a high level".[27]
