Ricky Stuart's meeting leak didn't stop Sione Finau's three-year signing with Canberra Raiders.
While Ricky Stuart may have been privately fuming that his meeting with Sione Finau was leaked to the media in July, that hasn't stopped the Canberra Raiders from confirming the arrival of the young St George Illawarra Dragons outside back.
Following a tour of the club's facilities over a month ago, Finau will join the Raiders on a three-year contract until the end of 2028, reuniting him with former teammate and close friend Savelio Tamale.
Debuting in 2024, he has appeared in seven NRL matches in his short career to date, crossing the line for four tries. He has also made ten tackle busts, four line-breaks, and averaged 151 running metres in his five appearances in 2025.
"I'm very excited for the opportunity, the door has been opened up, and I'm very grateful," said Finau.
