Raiders legend Josh Papalii has announced his retirement from rugby league, with the club's most-capped player to run out at home for the final time when the Green Machine takes on the battling Broncos.

Papalii made his NRL debut back in 2011, with Friday's clash to be his 341st for his beloved Raiders.

The Raiders will celebrate the occasion by renaming GIO Stadium "Papa's House" on Friday night to recognise his enormous contribution to the club.

The former Queensland, Australia and Samoa representative will go down as one of the greatest forwards of the modern era.
