The rugby league world is abuzz with rumors of a potential career move for Joseph Suaalii, as reports suggest that Rugby Australia may be pulling the plug on his $5 million contract.
According to the Sydney Morning Herald, the rugby powerbrokers who initially offered the lucrative deal are now getting "cold feet," leaving the door open for Suaalii to return to the Roosters.
Complicating matters is the source of funding for Suaalii's hefty salary, with reports indicating that the Rugby Foundation, established in 2015, is contributing to the deal, while the other half is contingent on the size of the 15-man code's next broadcast contract.
