Broncos.com.au – March 17, 2014
Jharal Yow Yeh has this morning announced he will retire from the game of rugby league.
The 24-year-old cannot continue to fight continuing complications brought about by an injury suffered in an NRL game in Perth two years ago.

Broncos will honour Jharal Yow Yeh’s deal Courier Mail – March 19, 2014 Luckless Broncos star Jharal Yow Yeh will retire with a full payout of the final two years of his NRL contract after changes to the NRL’s Collective Bargaining Agreement last year to protect players from career-ending injuries. Yow Yeh signed a $1 million three-year deal with the Broncos in January 2012, eight weeks before his horrific leg break in Perth that finally ended his career this week, after two years of courageous fighting. Under the previous CBA arrangements players were only entitled to 25 per cent of their contract if they were forced to retire with an injury sustained while playing or training. A key demand by the players during CBA negotiations last year was greater income protection after Wests Tigers duo Simon Dwyer and Taniela Tuiaki were forced to retire prematurely with serious injuries.
