Konileti "Konrad" Hurrell (born 5 August 1991) is a Tongan professional rugby league footballer who currently plays for the Gold Coast Titans in the National Rugby League. A Tongan international and World All Stars representative, he plays at centre and previously played for the New Zealand Warriors.
Born in Tofoa, Tonga, Hurrell moved to New Zealand in late 2009 on a rugby union scholarship with Auckland Grammar School. He played for their first XV, earning vice captain in his second year, and represented Auckland Secondary Schools as a centre and second five-eighth. Hurrell was also a member of the athletics team and was Tonga's national champion in weightlifting for the open weight category in 2010. Hurrell switched to rugby league in 2011. In 2011 he played for the Junior Warriors in the Toyota Cup. In this, his first year of playing rugby league, he scored 22 tries in 21 games and was named in the competition's Team of the Year. At the end of 2011 Hurrell was selected for the Junior Kiwis but was ineligible due to not having New Zealand Residency.
In 2012, Hurrell was promoted into the first grade squad by new coach Brian McClennan and played in all three trial matches. In February he signed a contract extension until the end of the 2013 season. Hurrell made his NRL debut for the Warriors in Round 1 against the Manly-Warringah Sea Eagles, impressing off the bench in the Warriors 26-20 loss at Eden Park. In round 2, Hurrell scored his first NRL career in the 36-20 win against the Parramatta Eels at Parramatta Stadium. In Round 18 in the 32-14 win against the Gold Coast Titans at Cbus Super Stadium, Hurrell scored his first hat-trick in the NRL, which made it twelve tries from twelve games at that stage of the season. On 15 July, he re-signed with the Warriors until the end of 2015. On the day before the Warriors Round 24 game, Hurrell was dropped from the first grade team to the Auckland Vulcans NSW Cup team, following a poor defensive display in the Warriors embarrassing 12-52 loss against the North Queensland Cowboys at 1300SMILES Stadium. Hurrell, along with Shaun Johnson and Manu Vatuvei, finished the Warriors season as joint top try-scorer with 12 tries from 17 matches.
