The Newcastle Knights have taken strides to lead the race for Canberra Raiders prop Trey Mooney, with the forward touring facilities in the Hunter.

Mooney has been given permission to leave at the end of 2025 by the Raiders as he searches for opportunity in the top grade.

That's something that won't happen in the nation's capital, with Joseph Tapine, Corey Horsburgh and Morgan Smithies set to own the two prop and lock jerseys next year.

Josh Papalii is also set to re-sign with the club. He was originally looking to head to England, but a change of heart and an appetite to keep him in Canberra from the club will now likely see him extend his tenure into 2026 with the Raiders.

As the NRL season approaches its climax with five weeks remaining, the landscape of the finals remains unpredictable following a series of stunning upsets in Round 22. The recent outcomes have muddied the waters as teams jostle for a favorable position ahead of Round 23.
