Anstee, who has been ever-present in the Warriors side this season - crossing for eight tries in 22 Champ Rugby appearances, joined ahead of the side's return season as much of an unknown entity to many fans but has quickly become a favourite within the side.
He signed on with Warriors from RFC Los Angeles, having lined up with Super Rugby side Western Force previously.
A former international sevens star, Anstee has played at 24 different competitions for Australia's 7s team between 2016 and 2020, including participating in the Commonwealth Games.
He has been rewarded for his consistent, standout performances in blue and gold with both the player's and supporter's player of the season awards.
