NRL star Jack Wighton signs with South Sydney
Star Canberra five-eighth Jack Wighton will join South Sydney in 2024 after shunning lucrative offers from the Dolphins and Raiders in the pursuit of premiership success.
Wighton is set to add firepower to the Rabbitohs' lethal left edge by beginning his four-year contract at centre, the position he most frequently played in his 10-game State of Origin career.
Wighton could return to the halves once Cody Walker retires, the Souths five-eighth is contracted until the end of the 2025 season by which time he will be 35.
