One way or another, Josh Papali'i hopes to have his contract sorted in the next few weeks.
Papali'i is off-contract at the end of 2024, but he has an option for an extra year - which is activated if he plays 75 per cent of games across the 2023-24 NRL seasons.
But the Canberra Raiders superstar hopes to have his future sorted well before that option kicks in - which would coincidentally be about when he plays his 300th game.
