Departing the Canberra Raiders at the end of last season, English international Elliott Whitehead has announced his retirement from rugby league.

After a remarkable career in both the Super League and the NRL, Whitehead has decided to hang up the boots after being sidelined for several months this season, whilst with the Catalans Dragons.

During that period in the nation's capital, he was a stalwart of the forward pack and led them not only on the field but also off the field with his leadership.

"First of all, I want to thank Ricky and club for the opportunity to come to the NRL back in 2016 and chase my dream," Whitehead said in 2024 after confirming his exit from the Raiders.
