Toadie Rebecchi

Jarrod Vincenzo Rebecchi, commonly known as "Toadfish" or "Toadie", is a fictional character from the Australian soap opera Neighbours, played by Ryan Moloney. He made his first screen appearance during the episode broadcast on 23 January 1995. Toadie was created by writer Elizabeth Packett. Moloney had previously auditioned for another role in the show and had played a minor character before being cast as Toadie. The actor was originally scheduled to play Toadie in one scene, but he went on to become a recurring cast member. When Toadie became popular with viewers, Moloney was promoted to the regular cast. In 2015, Moloney celebrated his 20th anniversary with Neighbours. The finale of the serial in 2022 focused on his character's wedding to Melanie Pearson (Lucinda Cowden), while the 2023 premiere of the revival focused on the character's wedding to Terese Willis (Rebekah Elmaloglou). Toadie departed as a regular character on 25 September 2024, with guest appearances following over the subsequent year until 8 September 2025. Toadie was initially portrayed as a troubled teenager and a "class clown". After qualifying as a lawyer, Toadie matured into a responsible member of the community. Labelled "unlucky in love", Toadie has had several love interests and has been married five times, most enduringly to Sonya Rebecchi (Eve Morey), a fan-favourite decade-long romance tragically cut short by Sonya's death to Ovarian Cancer in 2019. Toadie has received mostly positive attention from television critics and viewers. For his portrayal of Toadie, Moloney earned a nomination for Best Actor in a Soap at the 2004 Rose d'Or Awards. In 2010, Moloney won the first Best Daytime Star award at the Inside Soap Awards. He has since won it four more times in 2011, 2012, 2019, and 2024. He was also nominated for the Logie Award for Most Popular...
