Background
Born in Auckland, New Zealand, Musgrove is of Samoan and Māori descent and played his junior rugby league for Counties Manukau and the Mangere East Hawks. He was then signed by the South Sydney Rabbitohs.[2]
Playing career
Early career
In 2014 and 2015, Musgrove played for the South Sydney Rabbitohs' NYC team,[3] although for the majority of 2015, he played for the North Sydney Bears in the New South Wales Cup. He finished that year with 13 games and scoring 1 try for North Sydney.[4]
2016
In round 1 of the 2016 NRL season, Musgrove made his NRL debut for South Sydney against the Sydney Roosters.[5][6] In November, he extended his contract with South Sydney from the end of 2017 until the end of 2020.[7]
2017
Musgrove made 21 appearances for Souths in the 2017 NRL season but his team failed to make the finals for the second straight season.[8][9]
2018
In the 2018 season, injuries and suspension prevented Musgrove from making a single appearance for Souths, playing twice for their feeder club, the North Sydney Bears, instead. He was suspended from club activities following a domestic violence charge, but that was lifted after he indicated his intention to plead not guilty.[10] He was ultimately charged with property damage, which was overturned on appeal.
In November the West Tigers announced they had signed Musgrove for three years. He was released from his contract with the Souths, and began pre-season training with the Tigers.[11][12]
In December, Musgrove was charged with indecent assault for an alleged incident at the Coogee Bay Hotel that occurred two days after he signed with the Wests Tigers.[13] In January 2019 he pleaded not guilty.[14]
2019
On 1 March, the NRL announced that they had refused to register Musgrove's contract until the players legal issues were finalized. A statement from the NRL read "A request by the Wests Tigers to register Zane Musgrove, who is currently facing indecent assault charges, has been refused until the case is concluded".[15]
On 29 November, it was announced that Musgrove was allowed to resume training with the Wests Tigers after being cleared by the NRL.[16]
2021
On 31 January, Musgrove and fellow NRL player Asu Kepaoa were detained by the police after allegedly abusing officers and refusing to move on from outside of the Coogee Bay Hotel. They were released without charge, however Kepaoa was issued with an infringement notice. The matter was then passed on to the NRL Integrity Unit.[17]
On the 20th of February Musgrove represented the Māori All Stars in the 10-10 draw against the Indigenous All Stars.
Musgrove was limited to only five matches for the Wests Tigers in the 2021 NRL season as the club finished 13th and missed the finals.[18]
2022
On 7 January, it was revealed that Musgrove would need to attend Waverley Local Court on 12 January in relation to a driving offence which dated back to November 2021. It was alleged that Musgrove had been stopped by police for driving without headlights on. After the police conducted further checks they discovered that Musgrove was driving on a suspended licence.[19] Musgrove played a total of 24 matches for the Wests Tigers in the 2022 NRL season as the club finished bottom of the table and claimed the Wooden Spoon for the first time.[20] On 19 October, Musgrove signed a two-year deal to join St. George Illawarra starting in 2023.[21]
2023
On 21 February, Musgrove was issued with a breach notice and fined by St. George Illawarra after he was involved in an altercation with teammate Mikaele Ravalawa following the clubs Charity Shield loss to South Sydney in Mudgee. It was alleged that both players were heavily intoxicated after a night out of drinking following the game.[22] Musgrove would play a total of 11 games for St. George Illawarra in the 2023 NRL season as they finished 16th.[23] On 5 October 2023 it was reported that he had signed for Warrington on a two-year deal for the 2024 season.[24]
